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).
class Solution {
/*首先使用三层循环必然是要time limit
所以处理数组的时候,首先想到的应该是排序,排序后进行的如果不是二分查找性质的(将复杂度降为logn),就应该前后夹击求和性质(复杂度降为n)。因为在这其中比较好玩的是,需要的不是精确值,而是一个接近值。
采用思想为先选择一个,然后剩余值前后夹逼。
