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 their common interest with the least 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:
- The length of both lists will be in the range of [1, 1000].
- The length of strings in both lists will be in the range of [1, 30].
- The index is starting from 0 to the list length minus 1.
- No duplicates in both lists.
两个数组,寻找元素相同的并且下标相加最小的元素,如果有多个,则返回多个,两个数组各自没有重复元素
使用两个Map存储元素,然后求取最小值
public String[] findRestaurant(String[] list1, String[] list2) {
List<String> minRes = null;
Map<String, Integer> map1 = new HashMap<>();
Map<String, Integer> map2 = new HashMap<>();
int min = Integer.MAX_VALUE;
for (int i = 0; i < list1.length; i++) {
map1.put(list1[i], i);
}
for (int i = 0; i < list2.length; i++) {
map2.put(list2[i], i);
}
for (int i = 0; i < list1.length; i++) {
// 如果map2包含map1的key
if (map2.containsKey(list1[i])) {
int sum = map1.get(list1[i]) + map2.get(list1[i]);
if (sum < min) {
min = sum;
// minRes始终存储最小的sum,如果有比这个min小的sum,更新并且重置minRes
// 多次new 了链表可以考虑在多加一个for循环,判断等于最小值的时候加入链表
minRes = new ArrayList<String>();
minRes.add(list1[i]);
} else if (sum == min) {
minRes.add(list1[i]);
}
}
}
String[] strRes = new String[minRes.size()];
for (int i = 0; i < minRes.size(); i++) {
strRes[i] = minRes.get(i);
}
return strRes;
}
