599. Minimum Index Sum of Two Lists

Suppose Andy and Doris want to choose a restaurant for dinner, and they both have a list of favorite restaurants represented by strings.

You need to help them find out theircommon interestwith theleast list index sum. If there is a choice tie between answers, output all of them with no order requirement. You could assume there always exists an answer.

Example 1:

Input:
["Shogun", "Tapioca Express", "Burger King", "KFC"]
["Piatti", "The Grill at Torrey Pines", "Hungry Hunter Steakhouse", "Shogun"]
Output: ["Shogun"]
Explanation: The only restaurant they both like is "Shogun".

Example 2:

Input:
["Shogun", "Tapioca Express", "Burger King", "KFC"]
["KFC", "Shogun", "Burger King"]
Output: ["Shogun"]
Explanation: The restaurant they both like and have the least index sum is "Shogun" with index sum 1 (0+1).

Note:

  1. The length of both lists will be in the range of [1, 1000].
  2. The length of strings in both lists will be in the range of [1, 30].
  3. The index is starting from 0 to the list length minus 1.
  4. No duplicates in both lists.
class Solution {
    public String[] findRestaurant(String[] list1, String[] list2) {
        List
<String> res = new ArrayList(); List<String> l2 = Arrays.asList(list2); int min = 2000; for(int i = 0; i < list1.length; i++) { int ind = l2.indexOf(list1[i]); if(ind >= 0) { if(ind + i < min) { res.clear(); res.add(list1[i]); min = ind + i; } else if(ind + i == min) res.add(list1[i]); } } String[] r = new String[res.size()]; int i = 0; for(String s: res) r[i++] = s; return r; } }

brute force

public class Solution {
    public String[] findRestaurant(String[] list1, String[] list2) {
        HashMap < String, Integer > map = new HashMap < String, Integer > ();
        for (int i = 0; i < list1.length; i++) map.put(list1[i], i);        
        List < String > res = new ArrayList < > ();
        int min_sum = 4000int sum = 0;
        for (int j = 0; j < list2.length; j++) {
            if (map.containsKey(list2[j])) {
                sum = j + map.get(list2[j]);
                if (sum < min_sum) {
                    res.clear();
                    res.add(list2[j]);
                    min_sum = sum;
                } else if (sum == min_sum)
                    res.add(list2[j]);
            }
        }
        return res.toArray(new String[res.size()]);
    }
}

用hashmap,O(l1 + l2)
