这是今天的第二道题目,本来计划好的做三道,终究还是效率低。。。
167. Two Sum II - Input array is sorted
Description:
Given an array of integers that is already sorted in ascending order, 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.
Note:
Your returned answers (both index1 and index2) are not zero-based.
You may assume that each input would have exactly one solution and you may not use the same element twice.
Example:
Input: numbers = [2,7,11,15], target = 9
Output: [1,2]
Explanation: The sum of 2 and 7 is 9. Therefore index1 = 1, index2 = 2.
我的思路还是最笨的那种,直接遍历:
class Solution {
public int[] twoSum(int[] numbers, int target) {
int[] indices = new int[2];
for(int i=0;i<numbers.length;i++)
for(int j=i+1;j<numbers.length;j++){
if(numbers[i]+numbers[j]==target){
indices[0]=i+1;
indices[1]=j+1;
break;
}
}
return indices;
}
}
但这样耗时太大,高达122ms,速度倒数5.22%
后来一想,既然题目中说了输入的数组是有序的,那就要从这下手,毕竟刚做了一个用二分查找搜索有序数组的题目:35. Search Insert Position
可以设置两个索引,分别从左(数小)右(数大)两端开始向中间缩小区间查找满足的数,大大减少了比较次数。
class Solution {
public int[] twoSum(int[] numbers, int target) {
int[] indices = new int[2];
int left=0;
int right=numbers.length-1;
while(left<right){
int sum = numbers[left]+numbers[right];
if(sum==target){
indices[0]=left+1;
indices[1]=right+1;
break;
}
else if(sum>target)
right=right-1;
else
left=left+1;
}
return indices;
}
}
这样,耗时1ms,排名位于前33%左右。
