Given an array of integers that is already sorted in ascending order, find two numbers such that they add up to a specific target number.
The function twoSum should return indices of the two numbers such that they add up to the target, where index1 must be less than index2.
Note:
Your returned answers (both index1 and index2) are not zero-based.
You may assume that each input would have exactly one solution and you may not use the same element twice.
Example:
Input: numbers = [2,7,11,15], target = 9
Output: [1,2]
Explanation: The sum of 2 and 7 is 9. Therefore index1 = 1, index2 = 2.
two sum的问题,与第1题的two sum区别是已经是sorted的数组
思路:
因为数组已经排好序,可以用双指针的方法。
引用two pointers的思想,指针指向两端,和 < target的时候右端指针向左移,否则左边指针向右移,因为题目中说有唯一解,所以当和=target的时候直接返回下标(以1为起点)
//0ms
public int[] twoSum(int[] numbers, int target) {
if (numbers == null || numbers.length == 0) {
return new int[]{};
}
int[] res = new int[2];
int i = 0;
int j = numbers.length - 1;
while (i < j) {
if (numbers[i] + numbers[j] == target) {
res[0] = i + 1;
res[1] = j + 1;
return res;
} else if (numbers[i] + numbers[j] < target) {
i ++;
} else {
j --;
}
}
return res;
}
