题目:
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.
本题采用双指针之对撞指针来解决此问题。首先使用两个指针指向数组头和尾,分别为l和r,当l和r位置的元素之和大于target,由于是有序数组,可以让r减一,如果l和r位置的元素之和小于target,则l加一,直到l和r位置的元素之和等于target,则返回索引素组,当r和l相等,并且题目要求两个元素不能是同一个,则此时表明这两个索引不存在。
public class SortedArrayTwoSumII {
public static int[] twoSum(int[] numbers, int target) {
if(numbers == null || numbers.length < 2)
return new int[]{-1, -1};
int[] index = new int[2];
index[0] = -1;
index[1] = -1;
int l = 0;
int r = numbers.length -1;
while(l < r){
if (numbers[l] + numbers[r] > target)
r--;
else if (numbers[l] + numbers[r] < target)
l++;
else {
index[0] = l;
index[1] = r;
return index;
}
}
return index;
}
public static void main(String[] args) {
int[] numbers = {2,7,11,15};
int target = 9;
System.out.println(Arrays.toString(twoSum(numbers, target)));
}
}
