問題描述
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: 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] ]
解題思路
還是跟Leetcode15題 3Sum類似,這題也是先對數組排序,然後確定兩個數,將確定的第二個數的後一個數作爲頭指針位置,數組最後一個數爲尾指針位置。
但是這題可能會出現四個數組成的vector中的所有元素相同的情況,爲了解決這個問題,可以考慮先用set來存儲vector,最後再把set中的vector轉到vector中。
代碼如下
class Solution {
public:
vector<vector<int>> fourSum(vector<int>& nums, int target) {
int leng = nums.size();
vector<vector<int>> myFourSum;
set<vector<int>> saveSum;
if (leng < 4) return myFourSum;
sort(nums.begin(), nums.end());
for (int i = 0; i < leng - 3; i++) {
for (int j = i + 1; j < leng - 2; j++) {
int left = j + 1, right = leng - 1;
while (left < right) {
if (target == nums[i] + nums[j] + nums[left] + nums[right]) {
vector<int> vec;
vec.push_back(nums[i]);
vec.push_back(nums[j]);
vec.push_back(nums[left]);
vec.push_back(nums[right]);
//myFourSum.push_back(vec);
saveSum.insert(vec);
left++;
right--;
while (left < right && nums[left] == nums[left - 1]) left++;
while (left < right && nums[right] == nums[right + 1]) right--;
//at this time might variable j and the variable next to it might be equal
}
if (target > nums[i] + nums[j] + nums[left] + nums[right]) {
left++;
continue;
}
if (target < nums[i] + nums[j] + nums[left] + nums[right]) {
right--;
continue;
}
}
}
}
set<vector<int>>::iterator it = saveSum.begin();
for (; it != saveSum.end(); it++) {
myFourSum.push_back(*it);
}
return myFourSum;
}
};
