Follow up for "Remove Duplicates":
What if duplicates are allowed at most twice?
For example,
Given sorted array nums = [1,1,1,2,2,3]
,
Your function should return length = 5
, with the first five elements of nums being 1
, 1
, 2
, 2
and 3
. It doesn't matter what you leave beyond the new length.
[code]
public int removeDuplicates(int[] nums) {
int i = 0;
for (int n : nums)
if (i < 2 || n > nums[i-2])
nums[i++] = n;
return i;
}
