Given two integers n
and k
, you need to construct a list which contains n
different positive integers ranging from 1
to n
and obeys the following requirement:
Suppose this list is [a1, a2, a3, … , an], then the list [|a1 - a2|, |a2 - a3|, |a3 - a4|, … , |an-1 - an|] has exactly k
distinct integers.
If there are multiple answers, print any of them.
Example 1:
Input: n = 3, k = 1 Output: [1, 2, 3] Explanation: The [1, 2, 3] has three different positive integers ranging from 1 to 3, and the [1, 1] has exactly 1 distinct integer: 1.
Example 2:
Input: n = 3, k = 2 Output: [1, 3, 2] Explanation: The [1, 3, 2] has three different positive integers ranging from 1 to 3, and the [2, 1] has exactly 2 distinct integers: 1 and 2.
Note:
- The
n
andk
are in the range 1 <= k < n <= 104.
题目分析:给定n和k,要求输出一个包含1-n的序列,序列满足规律:相邻数差的绝对值得种类恰好是k个。
输出序列必然存在多个(证明:假设序列q符合题意,那么reverse(q)必然也成立)。现在假设这k个差表示的是1到k,并且相邻差的绝对值也是按照这个顺序。构造的符合题意得数列如下:
k=1: 1 2 3 4 5 6 7
k=2: 2 1 3 4 5 6 7
k=3: 2 3 1 4 5 6 7
k=4: 3 2 4 1 5 6 7
k=5: 3 4 2 5 1 6 7
……..
规律:
1、p[0]=k/2+1;
2、deta=1到k,正负号相间
3、若k是奇数,则deta先正后负,否则先负后正。
7、以上规律持续到deta=k,即第(k+1)个位置,之后的数据顺序递增。
代码如下:
class Solution {
public int[] constructArray(int n, int k) {
int[]result=new int[n];
int st=(k/2)+1;
boolean flag=k%2==0?false:true;
result[0]=st;
for(int i=1;i<=k;i++){
if(flag)
result[i]=result[i-1]+i;
else
result[i]=result[i-1]-i;
flag=!flag;
}
for(int i=k+1;i<n;i++)
result[i]=i+1;
return result;
}
}
