Write an efficient algorithm that searches for a value in an m x n matrix. This matrix has the following properties:
- Integers in each row are sorted in ascending from left to right.
- Integers in each column are sorted in ascending from top to bottom.
For example,
Consider the following matrix:
[ [1, 4, 7, 11, 15], [2, 5, 8, 12, 19], [3, 6, 9, 16, 22], [10, 13, 14, 17, 24], [18, 21, 23, 26, 30] ]
Given target = 5
, return true
.
Given target = 20
, return false
.
思路:
最简单的做法就是逐个搜索,时间复杂度为O(m*n);但是因为矩阵的行和列都已排好序,所以可以利用这个特点降低搜索的复杂度。我采用的方法是从第一行的最后一个元素开始搜索,如果比target大则往该行的前一元素查找,而如果比target小则往该列的下一行元素找,当搜索到最后一行或第一列的时候,搜索结束,返回false。这种搜索方式的时间复杂度为O(m+n)。
代码:
class Solution {
public:
bool searchMatrix(vector
>& matrix, int target) {
int m = matrix.size();
if(m == 0) return false;
int n = matrix[0].size();
int i = 0;
int j = n - 1;
for(; i < m && j >= 0; ){
if(matrix[i][j] == target) return true;
else if(matrix[i][j] > target) j --;
else i ++;
}
return false;
}
};
