- `nums` is an ascending array that is possibly rotated.
- `-10^4 <= target <= 10^4`
## Approach

S(["search(nums, target)"]) --> I["l = 0, r = n - 1"]
I --> W{"l <= r?"}
W -- no --> E(["return -1"])
W -- yes --> M["mid = floor((l + r) / 2)"]
M --> F{"nums[mid] == target?"}
F -- yes --> R(["return mid"])
F -- no --> H{"nums[l] <= nums[mid]? — left half sorted"}
H -- yes --> A{"target outside [nums[l], nums[mid]]?"}
