Problem
Given an array of integers, return indices of the two numbers such that they add up to a specific target.
You may assume that each input would have exactly one solution, and you may not use the same element twice.
Example
Given nums = [2, 7, 11, 15], target = 9,
Because nums[0] + nums[1] = 2 + 7 = 9,
return [0, 1].
My Solution
public class Solution {
public int[] twoSum(int[] nums, int target) {
int[] index = new int[2];
for (int i = 0; i < nums.length; i++) {
for (int j = i + 1; j < nums.length; j++) {
if (nums[i] + nums[j] == target) {
index[0] = i;
index[1] = j;
return index;
}
}
}
return index;
}
}
Great Solution
public int[] twoSum(int[] numbers, int target) {
int[] result = new int[2];
Map<Integer, Integer> map = new HashMap<Integer, Integer>();
for (int i = 0; i < numbers.length; i++) {
if (map.containsKey(target - numbers[i])) {
result[1] = i + 1;
result[0] = map.get(target - numbers[i]);
return result;
}
map.put(numbers[i], i + 1);
}
return result;
}
