4Sum

描述

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

Note:

  • Elements in a quadruplet (a,b,c,d) must be in non-descending order. (ie, abcda \leq b \leq c \leq d)
  • The solution set must not contain duplicate quadruplets.

For example, given array S = {1 0 -1 0 -2 2}, and target = 0.

A solution set is:

(-1,  0, 0, 1)
(-2, -1, 1, 2)
(-2,  0, 0, 2)

分析

先排序,然后左右夹逼,复杂度 O(n3)O(n^3),会超时。

可以用一个hashmap先缓存两个数的和,最终复杂度O(n3)O(n^3)。这个策略也适用于 3Sum 。

左右夹逼

// 4Sum
// 先排序,然后左右夹逼
// Time Complexity: O(n^3),Space Complexity: O(1)
public class Solution {
    public List<List<Integer>> fourSum(int[] nums, int target) {
        List<List<Integer>> result = new ArrayList<>();
        if (nums.length < 4) return result;
        Arrays.sort(nums);

        for (int i = 0; i < nums.length - 3; ++i) {
            if (i > 0 && nums[i] == nums[i-1]) continue;
            for (int j = i + 1; j < nums.length - 2; ++j) {
                if (j > i+1 && nums[j] == nums[j-1]) continue;
                int k = j + 1;
                int l = nums.length - 1;
                while (k < l) {
                    final int sum = nums[i] + nums[j] + nums[k] + nums[l];
                    if (sum < target) {
                        ++k;
                        while(nums[k] == nums[k-1] && k < l) ++k;
                    } else if (sum > target) {
                        --l;
                        while(nums[l] == nums[l+1] && k < l) --l;
                    } else {
                        result.add(Arrays.asList(nums[i], nums[j], nums[k], nums[l]));
                        ++k;
                        --l;
                        while(nums[k] == nums[k-1] && k < l) ++k;
                        while(nums[l] == nums[l+1] && k < l) --l;
                    }
                }
            }
        }
        return result;
    }
}

HashMap 做缓存

// 4Sum
// 先排序,然后左右夹逼
// Time Complexity: O(n^3),Space Complexity: O(1)
public class Solution {
    public List<List<Integer>> fourSum(int[] nums, int target) {
        List<List<Integer>> result = new ArrayList<>();
        if (nums.length < 4) return result;
        Arrays.sort(nums);

        final HashMap<Integer, ArrayList<int[]>> cache = new HashMap<>();
        for (int i = 0; i < nums.length; ++i) {
            for (int j = i + 1; j < nums.length; ++j) {
                ArrayList<int[]> value = cache.get(nums[i] + nums[j]);
                if (value == null) {
                    value = new ArrayList<>();
                    cache.put(nums[i] + nums[j], value);
                }
                value.add(new int[]{i, j});
            }
        }

        final HashSet<String> used = new HashSet<>(); // avoid duplicates
        for (int i = 0; i < nums.length; ++i) {
            if (i > 0 && nums[i] == nums[i-1]) continue;
            for (int j = i + 1; j < nums.length - 2; ++j) {
                if (j > i+1 && nums[j] == nums[j-1]) continue;
                final ArrayList<int[]> list = cache.get(target - nums[i] - nums[j]);
                if (list == null) continue;;
                for (int[] pair : list) {
                    if (j >= pair[0]) continue;  // overlap

                    final Integer[] sol = new Integer[]{nums[i], nums[j], nums[pair[0]], nums[pair[1]]};
                    Arrays.sort(sol);
                    final String key = Arrays.toString(sol);

                    if(!used.contains(key)){
                        result.add(Arrays.asList(sol));
                        used.add(key);
                    }
                }
            }
        }
        return result;
    }
}
