leetcode.16----------3Sum Closest

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).

先对数组进行排序，然后从第一个遍历起，然后设两个指针，在选一个数后，在这个数的后半段开始开始中间收缩，if sum > target则右指针往左移， if sum < target则左指针往右移。

排序O(nlogn) + 查找O(n^2) = O(n^2)

排序O(nlogn) + 查找O(n^2) = O(n^2)
