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.
思路简单,拿空间换时间,想到用Set,之后的就比较简单。遍历数组,找到数组前后连续起来的数字总和,并在set中删除已查找过的数,记录每次count的最大值,最后返回。
public class Solution {
public int longestConsecutive(int[] A) {
int maxn=1,i,count=1,num;
if(A.length<=1)return A.length;
Set<Integer> set=new HashSet<Integer>();
for(int k :A)set.add(k);
for(i=0;i<A.length;i++)
{ count=0;
num=A[i];
while(set.contains(num))
{
set.remove(num);
num--;
count++;
}
num=A[i]+1;
while(set.contains(num))
{
set.remove(num);
num++;
count++;
}
maxn=Math.max(maxn,count);
}
return maxn;
}
}
