Given an array of integers and an integer k, you need to find the number of unique k-diff pairs in the array. Here a k-diff pair is defined as an integer pair (i, j), where i and j are both numbers in the array and their absolute difference is k.
Example 1:
Input: [3, 1, 4, 1, 5], k = 2 Output: 2 Explanation: There are two 2-diff pairs in the array, (1, 3) and (3, 5).
Although we have two 1s in the input, we should only return the number of unique pairs.
Example 2:
Input:[1, 2, 3, 4, 5], k = 1 Output: 4 Explanation: There are four 1-diff pairs in the array, (1, 2), (2, 3), (3, 4) and (4, 5).
Example 3:
Input: [1, 3, 1, 5, 4], k = 0 Output: 1 Explanation: There is one 0-diff pair in the array, (1, 1).
Note:
- The pairs (i, j) and (j, i) count as the same pair.
- The length of the array won't exceed 10,000.
- All the integers in the given input belong to the range: [-1e7, 1e7].
public class Solution {
public int findPairs(int[] nums, int k) {
Arrays.sort(nums);
int i = 0, j = 1, count = 0;
while (i < nums.length && j < nums.length) {
if (i == j || nums[j] - nums[i] < k) {
j ++;
} else if (nums[j] - nums[i] > k){
i ++;
} else {
i ++;
count ++;
while (i < nums.length && nums[i] == nums[i - 1]) i ++;
j = Math.max(j + 1, i + 1);
}
}
return count;
}
}
还有一种方法是用Hashmap,存储所有的数,遍历keyset,如果k=0,就找出现次数大于2的数;否则,找有没有key+k的数。代码如下:
public class Solution {
public int findPairs(int[] nums, int k) {
if (nums == null || nums.length == 0 || k < 0) return 0;
Map<Integer, Integer> map = new HashMap<>();
int count = 0;
for (int i : nums) {
map.put(i, map.getOrDefault(i, 0) + 1);
}
for (Map.Entry<Integer, Integer> entry : map.entrySet()) {
if (k == 0) {
//count how many elements in the array that appear more than twice.
if (entry.getValue() >= 2) {
count++;
}
} else {
if (map.containsKey(entry.getKey() + k)) {
count++;
}
}
}
return count;
}
}
