Leetcode 414. Third Maximum Number 第三大的数

本文介绍了一种在非空数组中寻找第三大数值的算法,若不存在则返回最大数。通过一次遍历实现O(n)的时间复杂度,适用于面试及实际问题解决。

题目:

给定一个非空数组,返回此数组中第三大的数。如果不存在,则返回数组中最大的数。要求算法时间复杂度必须是O(n)。

示例 1:

输入: [3, 2, 1]

输出: 1

解释: 第三大的数是 1.

示例 2:

输入: [1, 2]

输出: 2

解释: 第三大的数不存在, 所以返回最大的数 2 .

示例 3:

输入: [2, 2, 3, 1]

输出: 1

解释: 注意,要求返回第三大的数,是指第三大且唯一出现的数。
存在两个值为2的数,它们都排第二。

解题思路:

使用first,second,third表示第一大,第二大与第三大,逐次更新,最后输出第三大的数。

代码实现:

class Solution {
    public int thirdMax(int[] nums) {
        Integer first = null, second = null, third = null;
        for (int i : nums) {
            if ((first != null && first == i) || (second != null && second == i) || (third != null && third == i)) continue;
            if (first == null || i > first) {
                third = second;
                second = first;
                first = i;
            }
            else if (second == null || i > second) {
                third = second;
                second = i;
            }
            else if (third == null || i > third) {
                third = i;
            }
        }
        return third == null ? first : third;
    }
}
Yousef has an array a of size n . He wants to partition the array into one or more contiguous segments such that each element ai belongs to exactly one segment. A partition is called cool if, for every segment bj , all elements in bj also appear in bj+1 (if it exists). That is, every element in a segment must also be present in the segment following it. For example, if a=[1,2,2,3,1,5] , a cool partition Yousef can make is b1=[1,2] , b2=[2,3,1,5] . This is a cool partition because every element in b1 (which are 1 and 2 ) also appears in b2 . In contrast, b1=[1,2,2] , b2=[3,1,5] is not a cool partition, since 2 appears in b1 but not in b2 . Note that after partitioning the array, you do not change the order of the segments. Also, note that if an element appears several times in some segment bj , it only needs to appear at least once in bj+1 . Your task is to help Yousef by finding the maximum number of segments that make a cool partition. Input The first line of the input contains integer t (1≤t≤104 ) — the number of test cases. The first line of each test case contains an integer n (1≤n≤2⋅105 ) — the size of the array. The second line of each test case contains n integers a1,a2,…,an (1≤ai≤n ) — the elements of the array. It is guaranteed that the sum of n over all test cases doesn't exceed 2⋅105 . Output For each test case, print one integer — the maximum number of segments that make a cool partition. Example InputCopy 8 6 1 2 2 3 1 5 8 1 2 1 3 2 1 3 2 5 5 4 3 2 1 10 5 8 7 5 8 5 7 8 10 9 3 1 2 2 9 3 3 1 4 3 2 4 1 2 6 4 5 4 5 6 4 8 1 2 1 2 1 2 1 2 OutputCopy 2 3 1 3 1 3 3 4 Note The first test case is explained in the statement. We can partition it into b1=[1,2] , b2=[2,3,1,5] . It can be shown there is no other partition with more segments. In the second test case, we can partition the array into b1=[1,2] , b2=[1,3,2] , b3=[1,3,2] . The maximum number of segments is 3 . In the third test case, the only partition we can make is b1=[5,4,3,2,1]
