Given an array of integers, find two numbers such that they add up to a specific target number.
The function twoSum should return indices of the two numbers such that they add up to the target, where index1 must be less than index2. Please note that your returned answers (both index1 and index2) are not zero-based.
You may assume that each input would have exactly one solution.
Input: numbers={2, 7, 11, 15}, target=9
Output: index1=1, index2=2
但是这个题目肯定还有更简单的解法,想了一会没有想到解决的方法,于是在网上搜了一下,果然有更简单的方法。发现我在读题的时候忽略了一个条件,这里给出的数组是有序的,也就是说小的数是在前边的,而大的数一定是在后边的。如果一个数是另两个数的和那么一定是一前一后的。
但是如果这个数组是无须的呢,有没有O(n)的解法呢?

读完这个题目的时候很快就想到两个循环去做这个题,时间复杂度是O(n^2)。先把这个写出来
public static int[] twoSum(int[] nums, int target) {
int[] indexs = new int[2];
for(int i=0;i<nums.length;i++){
for(int j=i+1;j<nums.length;j++){
if(nums[i]+nums[j]==target){
indexs[0]=i+1;
indexs[1]=j+1;
}
}
}
return indexs;
}

public int[] twoSum(int[] numbers, int target) {
HashMap<Integer, Integer> map = new HashMap<Integer, Integer>();
int[] result = new int[2];
for (int i = 0; i < numbers.length; i++) {
if (map.containsKey(numbers[i])) {
int index = map.get(numbers[i]);
result[0] = index+1 ;
result[1] = i+1;
break;
} else {
map.put(target - numbers[i], i);
}
}
return result;
}
