Given an array S of n integers, are there elements a, b, c in S such that a + b + c = 0? Fi
nd all unique triplets in the array which gives the sum of zero.
Note:
- Elements in a triplet (a,b,c) must be in non-descending order. (ie, a ≤ b ≤ c)
- The solution set must not contain duplicate triplets.
For example, given array S = {-1 0 1 2 -1 -4}, A solution set is: (-1, 0, 1) (-1, -1, 2)
思路:排序,锁定一个节点,在后续节点中,双端扫描。
