【哈希表】Longest Consecutive Sequence

题目：leetcode

Longest Consecutive Sequence

 

Given an unsorted array of integers, find the length of the longest consecutive elements sequence.

For example,
Given [100, 4, 200, 1, 3, 2],
The longest consecutive elements sequence is [1, 2, 3, 4]. Return its length: 4.

Your algorithm should run in O(n) complexity.

分析：

用一个哈希表，记录一个数是否已经被遍历，避免重复。

leetcode的测试用例没有考虑输入数组包含int类型最大最小值的问题。如输入[0x7fffffff,0x80000000]，理应返回1，但如果没有考虑int类型最大最小值的问题，会返回2（即认为 0x7fffffff和0x80000000是两个相邻的数）。

            continue;
            int length=1;
