Given a sorted array, remove the duplicates in place such that each element appear only once and return the new length.
Do not allocate extra space for another array, you must do this in place with constant memory.
For example,
Given input array nums = [1,1,2]
,
Your function should return length = 2
, with the first two elements of nums being 1
and 2
respectively. It doesn't matter what you leave beyond the new length.
思路:
用两个迭代器,一个迭代器不断去寻找新的没重复的数,交给另一个迭代器,另一个迭代器每收到一个数递增1,然后当“跑的快”的迭代器跑到末尾时,说明没有新的数了。删除掉“跑的慢”的那个迭代器,到末尾的所有元素即可。
解:
class Solution {
public:
int removeDuplicates(vector<int>& nums) {
if(!nums.size())
return 0;
int temp = nums[0];
auto it1 = nums.begin();
auto it2 = nums.begin();
while(true)
{
it1++;
while(*it2 == temp && it2 != nums.end())
it2++;
if(it2 == nums.end())
break;
*it1 = *it2;
temp = *it2;
}
nums.erase(it1, nums.end());
return nums.size();
}
};
