Given an unsorted array of integers, find the length of the longest consecutive elements sequence.
Your algorithm should run in O(n) complexity.
Example:
Input: [100, 4, 200, 1, 3, 2]
Output: 4
Explanation: The longest consecutive elements sequence is [1, 2, 3, 4]
. Therefore its length is 4.
题解:哈希表的利用,本来直接用hash数组但是有负数,这里用set保存,然后遍历num然后用cur记录当前数字所在连续数列的长度,ans表示最长长度,每次遍历num中的数x,如果x不在set中终止当前循环,然后while循环遍历x连续序列通过set判断是否在数组中,并把访问的数从set中删除,结束后cur重新设置为1,ans更新最大
代码如下:
class Solution {
public:
int longestConsecutive(vector<int> &num) {
unordered_set<int> record(num.begin(),num.end());
if(num.size()==0)return 0;
int cur=1,ans=1;
for(int x:num){
if(record.find(x)==record.end()) continue;
record.erase(x);
int prev=x-1;
int next=x+1;
while(record.find(prev)!=record.end()){
cur++;record.erase(prev--);
}
while(record.find(next)!=record.end()){
cur++;record.erase(next++);
}
ans=max(cur,ans);
cur=1;
}
return ans;
}
};
