【leetcode】3Sum Closest

Question：

Given an array S of n integers, find three integers in S such that the sum is closest to a given number, target. Return the sum of the three integers. You may assume that each input would have exactly one solution.

    For example, given array S = {-1 2 1 -4}, and target = 1.

    The sum that is closest to the target is 2. (-1 + 2 + 1 = 2).

        int len = num.size();
        assert(len >= 3);
        
        vector<int> num2;
        num2.assign(num.begin(), num.end());
        
        sort(num2.begin(), num2.end());
        
        int sum = num2[0] + num2[1] + num2[2];

                    diff = abs(sum - target);
                    ret = sum;
