[LeetCode] 4Sum
阿新 • • 發佈:2019-01-02
Question : Given an array S of n integers, are there elements a, b, c, and d in S such that a + b + c + d = target? Find all unique quadruplets in the array which gives the sum of target.
Note:
Elements in a quadruplet (a,b,c,d) must be in non-descending order. (ie, a ≤ b ≤ c ≤ d)
Note:
Elements in a quadruplet (a,b,c,d) must be in non-descending order. (ie, a ≤ b ≤ c ≤ d)
The solution set must not contain duplicate quadruplets.
For example, given array S = {1 0 -1 0 -2 2}, and target = 0. A solution set is: (-1, 0, 0, 1) (-2, -1, 1, 2) (-2, 0, 0, 2)
思路:
Note : 這個跟3sum也挺像。 定義一對指標,指向兩頭。再定義一對指標,指向中間的兩個元素。加起來看看跟target比較一下。決定內部指標怎麼移動。
用到了Arrays.sort() 方法,該方法是一種改進的快排,時間複雜度最優情況 O(N*logN)
import java.util.ArrayList; import java.util.Arrays; import java.util.HashSet; public class FourSum { public ArrayList fourSum (int[] num, int target) { HashSet rs = new HashSet(); int len = num.length; Arrays.sort(num); if(len <= 3) return new ArrayList(rs); for(int i = 0; i < len-3; i++) { for(int k = len-1; k > i+2; k--) { int ab = num[i] + num[k]; int c = target-ab; int m = i+1; int n = k-1; while(m < n) { int sum = num[m] + num[n]; if(sum == c) { ArrayList elem = new ArrayList(); elem.add(num[i]); elem.add(num[m]); elem.add(num[n]); elem.add(num[k]); rs.add(elem); m++; n--; } else if(sum < c) { m++; } else n--; } } } return new ArrayList(rs); } }
