3Sum Smaller
Source
Given an array of n integers nums and a target, find the number of index
triplets i, j, k with 0 <= i < j < k < n that satisfy the condition
nums[i] + nums[j] + nums[k] < target.
For example, given nums = [-2, 0, 1, 3], and target = 2.
Return 2. Because there are two triplets which sums are less than 2:
[-2, 0, 1]
[-2, 0, 3]
Follow up:
Could you solve it in O(n2) runtime?
Java
public int threeSumSmaller(int[] nums, int target) {
int n = nums.length;
Arrays.sort(nums);
int count = 0;
for (int k = 0; k < n - 2; k++) {
int i = k + 1;
int j = n - 1;
while (i < j) {
int sum = nums[k] + nums[i] + nums[j];
if (sum >= target) {
j--;
} else {
count += j - i;
i++;
}
}
}
return count;
