Array + two points leetcode.18

题面

Given an array nums of n integers and an integer target, are there elements abc, and d in nums such that a + bc + d = target? Find all unique quadruplets in the array which gives the sum of target.

给定无序数组,找到和为target的不重复长度为4的子序列

样例

1. Given array nums = [1, 0, -1, 0, -2, 2], and target = 0.
solution set is:
[
  [-1,  0, 0, 1],
  [-2, -1, 1, 2],
  [-2,  0, 0, 2]
]
2. Given array nums = [0, 0, 0, 0], and target = 0.
solution set is:
[
  [0, 0, 0, 0]  
]
note: This example need to think specially!
3. Given array nums = [-3, -3, -3, 2, 2, 2,0, 0, 0, 3, 3, 3], and target = 0.
solution set is:
[
  [-1,  0, 0, 1],
  [-2, -1, 1, 2],
  [-2,  0, 0, 2]
]
Note: How to deal with the duplicate quadruplets ?

思路(这里是4个数的和为target,我们之前不是做过3个数的吗?Refer this one 正好可以用上)

1. 升序排序(sort即可)

2. 不可避免地要遍历数组(i)

3. 借鉴leetcode-15中的三个数的和,我们如法炮制,搜索剩下的三个数(j = i+1, l=j+1, r = size()-1);对参数有疑惑的话,看下面代码。

时间复杂度:O(n3),暴力的话应该会超时,没试!

这题里面尤其要注意避免重复

18                 int l=j+1, r=len-1;
19                 while(l < r)

21                     int sum = nums[i] + nums[j] + nums[l] + nums[r];
22                     if(sum > target)
23                         r--;
24                     else if(sum < target)
25                         l++;
26                     else
27                     {
28                         res.push_back(vector<int> {nums[i], nums[j], nums[l], nums[r]});
29                         while(l<r && nums[l]==nums[l+1]) l++;//消除l的重复
30                         while(l<r && nums[r]==nums[r-1]) r--;//消除r的重复
31                         l++; r--;
32                     }
33                 }
34             }
35         }
36         return res;
37     }
38 };

如果对消除重复有疑问的童鞋,请留言, 或者自行把example 3 手推一遍就明白了。
