求最长等差数列长度

Longest Consecutive Sequence

https://leetcode.com/problems/longest-consecutive-sequence/

LeetCode上面这道题是求最长连续子序列。换种说法就是求公差为1的最长等差数列。

题目描述

Given an unsorted array of integers, find the length of the longest consecutive elements sequence.

For example,
Given [100, 4, 200, 1, 3, 2],
The longest consecutive elements sequence is [1, 2, 3, 4]. Return its length: 4.

Your algorithm should run in O(n) complexity.

分析：

需要注意的是时间复杂度要求是O(n)，所以排序后再处理那种方法是不可行的。我们可以就用数组中的元素作为key建立hash表，然后直接循环遍历找当前元素val的，val-1，val+1。

代码：

class Solution {
public:
    int longestConsecutive(vector<int>& nums) {
        int n=nums.size();
        if(n==0 || n==1){
            return n;
        }
        int longest=1,val,cur
