Given an array S of n integers, find three integers in S such that the sum is closest to a given number, target. Return the sum of the three integers. You may assume that each input would have exactly one solution.
For example, given array S = {-1 2 1 -4}, and target = 1. The sum that is closest to the target is 2. (-1 + 2 + 1 = 2).
固定第一个点,之后根据和值与目标值比较使得左右两个指针不断接近,并在此过程中判断与目标值的接近程度,复杂度O(n^2)
public class Solution {
public int threeSumClosest(int[] nums, int target) {
Arrays.sort(nums);
int ans = nums[0] + nums[1] + nums[2];
for(int i=0; i<nums.length-2; i++){
int left = i+1, right = nums.length-1;
while(left<right){
int temp = nums[i] + nums[left] + nums[right];
if(temp>target) right--;
else left++;
if(Math.abs(temp-target)<Math.abs(ans-target)) ans = temp;
}
}
return ans;
}
}
