#27 Remove Element
Given an integer array nums
and an integer val
, remove all occurrences of val
in nums
in-place. The relative order of the elements may be changed.
Since it is impossible to change the length of the array in some languages, you must instead have the result be placed in the first part of the array nums
. More formally, if there are k
elements after removing the duplicates, then the first k
elements of nums
should hold the final result. It does not matter what you leave beyond the first k
elements.
Return k
after placing the final result in the first k
slots of nums
.
Do not allocate extra space for another array. You must do this by modifying the input array in-place with O(1) extra memory.
解题思路:
占了python del 功能的好处。一删完一个元素,下一个自动靠拢。所以就比较简单。
用while循环查找val在nums里的index,然后用del 删掉。最后输出nums的长度。
class Solution:
def removeElement(self, nums: List[int], val: int) -> int:
while val in nums:
del_idx = nums.index(val)
del nums[del_idx]
return len(nums)

#26 Remove Duplicates from Sorted Array
Given an integer array nums
sorted in non-decreasing order, remove the duplicates in-place such that each unique element appears only once. The relative order of the elements should be kept the same.
Since it is impossible to change the length of the array in some languages, you must instead have the result be placed in the first part of the array nums
. More formally, if there are k
elements after removing the duplicates, then the first k
elements of nums
should hold the final result. It does not matter what you leave beyond the first k
elements.

解题思路:
两个pointer,比较左右值,相等则删掉右值。不等则左标右标都右移一位。最后右标超出nums长度则停止循环。
class Solution:
def removeDuplicates(self, nums: List[int]) -> int:
left, right = 0, 1
while right < len(nums):
if nums[left] == nums[right]:
del nums[right]
else:
left += 1
right += 1
return len(nums)
runtime:
看了一下65ms的solution:
这个思路相比之下,快在不删掉重复的值,而是直接不同的才挪坑改值。pointer的作用是保留unique的值。最后看pointer停留在idx的位置。确实步骤省了很多。瑞思拜。
