LeetCode 414. Third Maximum Number (第三大的数)
Given a non-empty array of integers, return the third maximum number in this array. If it does not exist, return the maximum number. The time complexity must be in O(n).
Example 1:
Input: [3, 2, 1] Output: 1 Explanation: The third maximum is 1.
Example 2:
Input: [1, 2] Output: 2 Explanation: The third maximum does not exist, so the maximum (2) is returned instead.
Example 3:
Input: [2, 2, 3, 1] Output: 1 Explanation: Note that the third maximum here means the third maximum distinct number. Both numbers with value 2 are both considered as second maximum.
题目标签:Array
方法1:
题目给了我们一个nums array, 让我们找到第三大的数。其中重复的数字不算。如果是要找一个max 的数,就很简单,现在是找第三个,那么就需要维护三个max1,max2,max3。
每次找到一个数字比 max1 大的, 或者比max2 大的,或者比max3大的,就需要重新更新三个 max 的值。
还有一点是,这里max1 max2 max3 要用long,因为用int Integer.MIN_VALUE 的话,如果array 中有一个 是 int 里最小的数字, 那么在最后判断max3 是有数字 还是没有的情况下,就不能分辨了。

想法一样,不过运用了Integer 可以利用null,不需要把max = MIN_VALUE, 过程也比较简单清楚。
