Given an unsorted array return whether an increasing subsequence of length 3 exists or not in the array.
Formally the function should:
Return true if there exists i, j, k
such that arr[i] < arr[j] < arr[k] given 0 ≤ i < j < k ≤ n-1 else return false.
Your algorithm should run in O(n) time complexity and O(1) space complexity.
Examples:
Given [1, 2, 3, 4, 5]
,
return true
.
Given [5, 4, 3, 2, 1]
,
return false
.
方法:保存3个候选值,其中第1、2个位递增的一对,第3个位比第1个还小的数字。
