What do you mean by points ? .. Are you referring to the integer values stored ? . 1.) If the question is, given N integers.. and given x1 and x2, report all integers x (x1<=x<=x2), you can't do better than O(N), as going through input itself takes O(N). . 2.) if the question is, given N integers and Q queries, each query is as ques1, then you may sort it initially and answer each query. It will be O( N log N ) + Q . O ( logN + (x2-x1) ).
