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).
在一组数组中找出 一个三元组(a,b,c)的和,其和最接近target.
和leetcode 15.3Sum题没多大区别,一样的思路.
public class A16_3SumClosest {
public int threeSumClosest(int[] nums, int target) {
Arrays.sort(nums);
int distance = Integer.MAX_VALUE; // 3元组的和与target的距离
int ans = nums[0];
for(int i = 0; i < nums.length - 2; i++) {
int second = i + 1;
int third = nums.length - 1;
while(second < third) {
int sum = nums[i] + nums[second] + nums[third];
if(sum == target) {
return target;
}
if (Math.abs(sum - target) < distance) {
distance = Math.abs(sum - target);
ans = sum;
}
if(sum > target) {
do {
third--;
} while(second < third && nums[third + 1] == nums[third]);
} else {
do {
second++;
} while(second < third && nums[second - 1] == nums[second]);
}
}
while(i < nums.length - 2 && nums[i] == nums[i + 1])
i++;
}
return ans;
}
}
