1.题目
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).
2.解法
思路:从数组起始处遍历,下标为i,选取两个下标j,k作为两个指针遍历i+1到nums.length-1处的数组元素。比较temp=nums[i]+nums[j]+nums[k]以及初始值closest与target之间哪个距离更小,以此更新closest。外层循环每一次遍历之后是j++还是k–取决于temp大于target还是小于target。
时间复杂度:O(N^2)
public class Solution {
public int threeSumClosest(int[] nums, int target) {
int size = nums.length;
if(size < 3){
return 0;
}
Arrays.sort(nums);
int closest = nums[0] + nums[1] + nums[2];
for(int i = 0; i < size - 1; i++){
int j = i + 1;
int k = size - 1;
while(j < k){
int temp = nums[i] + nums[j] + nums[k];
if(temp == target){
return temp;
}else if(temp > target){
--k;
}else if(temp < target){
++j;
}
if(Math.abs(target - temp) < Math.abs(target - closest)){
closest = temp;
}
}
}
return closest;
}
}
