1. Two Sum
Category: /leetcodeGiven an array of integers nums and an integer target, return indices of the two numbers such that they add up to target.
You may assume that each input would have exactly one solution, and you may not use the same element twice.
You can return the answer in any order.
Example 1:
Input: nums = [2,7,11,15], target = 9
Output: [0,1]
Output: Because nums[0] + nums[1] == 9, we return [0, 1].
Example 2:
Input: nums = [3,2,4], target = 6
Output: [1,2]
Example 3:
Input: nums = [3,3], target = 6
Output: [0,1]
Solution:
- Hashmap
def twoSum(self, nums, target):
items = []
for i, n in enumerate(nums):
m = target - n
if m in items:
return [d[m], i]
else:
items[n] = i
return None
There can be follow up:
- return all pairs matching the conditions
- the list is sorted, use
two-pointers
- 3-sum or 4-sum
