Given an array of n positive integers and a positive integer s, find the minimal length of a subarray of which the sum ≥ s. If there isn't one, return 0 instead.
For example, given the array [2,3,1,2,4,3]
and s = 7
,
the subarray [4,3]
has the minimal length under the problem constraint.
这道题主要还是先要把题目的要求弄清楚。首先题目中所说的if there is not one, return 0 instead。怎样才算是没有呢?
这里意思是如果我们算出来的min length和array本身的长度一样,那么我们就应该return 0。
这里比较容易想到的是用two pointer来计算。一个pointer用来计算sum,和另一个pointer紧随其后,用来判断长度。
代码如下。~
public class Solution { public int minSubArrayLen(int s, int[] nums) { //two pointer //one from start;one follows int start = 0; int end = 0; int sum = 0; int min = nums.length; while(start<nums.length && end<nums.length) { while(sum<s && end<nums.length) { sum=sum+nums[end]; end++; } while(sum>=s && start<=end) { min = Math.min(min, end-start); sum =sum-nums[start]; start++; } } if(min==nums.length){ return 0; } return min; } }
