题目描述:
Given an array of integers with possible duplicates, randomly output the index of a given target number. You can assume that the given target number must exist in the array.
Note:
The array size can be very large. Solution that uses too much extra space will not pass the judge.
Example:
int[] nums = new int[] {1,2,3,3,3};
Solution solution = new Solution(nums);
// pick(3) should return either index 2, 3, or 4 randomly. Each index should have equal probability of returning.
solution.pick(3);
// pick(1) should return 0. Since in the array only nums[0] is equal to 1.
solution.pick(1);
数值在数组中可能出现多次,需要等概率返回给定数值对应的下标。采用的方法是蓄水池法,假设遍历到第count个目标值,有1/count的概率改成这个目标值对应的下标。
class Solution {
public:
Solution(vector<int> nums) {
v=nums;
}
int pick(int target) {
int count=0;
int result;
for(int i=0;i<v.size();i++)
{
if(target==v[i])
{
count++;
if(rand()%count==0) result=i;
}
}
return result;
}
private:
vector<int> v;
};
/**
* Your Solution object will be instantiated and called as such:
* Solution obj = new Solution(nums);
* int param_1 = obj.pick(target);
