3Sum Closest

  Total Accepted: 32191 Total Submissions: 119262My Submissions

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).

二.解题技巧

    这道题和另外一道题3Sum类似,主要流程也是一样的。也是先进行排序,然后依照顺序选择数组A中的第i个元素作为三个数的最小值来寻找三个数的和。只是的地方在于这里是寻找最靠近给定值,寻找最靠近的值就无全部反复的事情了。所以能够不考虑夹逼的过程中的越过同样元素的过程,尽管越过同样的元素速度会快一些,可是代码长度也会加长。
    这道题难的地方可能在于刚開始这样的差的阈值的过程。假设把阈值设置得太小了,会出现错误,因此,应该尽可能地将阈值设置得大一点。因为数组是已经排序的,因此,数组中三个数的和的范围在[3*A[0], 3*A[n-1]],因此,阈值能够依据以下三种情况进行设置:
1.if target >= 3*A[n-1],阈值设置为H = target - 3 * A[0];
2.if 3*A[0] <= target<3*A[n-1],阈值设置为H = 3 * A[n-1] - 3*A[0];
3.if target < 3 * A[0],阈值设置为H = 3 * A[n-1] - target。
   这样就能够依据阈值与眼下得到的三个数的和与target的差来推断是否是最接近target的情况了,依据不同的情况,选择缩放的方向。


三.实现代码

class Solution
{
public:
    int threeSumClosest(vector<int> &num, int target)
    {
        int Size = num.size();

        sort(num.begin(), num.end());

        int MaxSum = 3 * num[Size - 1];
        int MinSum = 3 * num[0];
        int ThreadHold = 0;
        if (target <= MinSum)
        {
            ThreadHold = MaxSum - target;
        }
        if (MaxSum < target)
        {
            ThreadHold = target - MinSum;
        }
        if ((MinSum < target) && (target <= MaxSum))
        {
            ThreadHold = MaxSum - MinSum;
        }


        int Result = 0;

        for (int Index_outter = 0; Index_outter < (Size - 2); Index_outter++)
        {
            int First = num[Index_outter];
            int Second = num[Index_outter + 1];

            if ((Index_outter != 0) && (First == num[Index_outter - 1]))
            {
                continue;
            }

            int Start = Index_outter + 1;
            int End = Size - 1;

            while (Start < End)
            {
                Second = num[Start];
                int Third = num[End];

                int Sum = First + Second + Third;

                if (Sum == target)
                {
                    return Sum;
                }

                if (Sum < target)
                {
                    Start++;
                    if (ThreadHold >= (target - Sum))
                    {
                        Result = Sum;
                        ThreadHold = target - Sum;
                    }
                }

                if (Sum > target)
                {
                    End--;
                    if (ThreadHold >= (Sum - target))
                    {
                        Result = Sum;
                        ThreadHold = Sum - target;
                    }
                }
            }
        }
    return Result;

    }
};




四.体会

    这道题最难的地方在于阈值的选择上面。事实上能够设置为整数的最大值的,可是,我一開始并不知道怎样计算整数的最大值,因此。仅仅能依据排好序的数组的三个数的和的范围与target的关系来设定阈值了,详细的阈值设置情况能够画个数轴出来分析,画出数轴之后,一切就明显了。
