Minimum Size Subarray Sum 最短子数组之和
题意
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.

If you have figured out the O(n) solution, try coding another solution of which the time complexity is O(n log n).

这道题给定了我们一个数字,让我们求子数组之和大于等于给定值的最小长度,跟之前那道 Maximum Subarray 最大子数组有些类似,并且题目中要求我们实现O(n)和O(nlgn)两种解法,那么我们先来看O(n)的解法,我们需要定义两个指针left和right,分别记录子数组的左右的边界位置,然后我们让right向右移,直到子数组和大于等于给定值或者right达到数组末尾,此时我们更新最短距离,并且将left像右移一位,然后再sum中减去移去的值,然后重复上面的步骤,直到right到达末尾,且left到达临界位置,即要么到达边界,要么再往右移动,和就会小于给定值。代码如下:
思路
这道题需要比较巧妙的思考,不能直接蛮干,比如说移动窗口,再更新它的窗口最小长度;或者先计算累计和,通过加上给定的值,去得到窗口信息,再更新最小长度。
实现
移动窗口
// O(n)
class Solution {
public:
int minSubArrayLen(int s, vector<int>& nums) {
if (nums.empty()) return 0;
int left = 0, right = 0, sum = 0, len = nums.size(), res = len + 1;
while (right < len) {
while (sum < s && right < len) {
sum += nums[right++];
}
while (sum >= s) {
res = min(res, right - left);
sum -= nums[left++];
}
}
return res == len + 1 ? 0 : res;
}
};
同样的思路,换另外一种写法
class Solution {
public:
int minSubArrayLen(int s, vector<int>& nums) {
int res = INT_MAX, left = 0, sum = 0;
for (int i = 0; i < nums.size(); ++i) {
sum += nums[i];
while (left <= i && sum >= s) {
res = min(res, i - left + 1);
sum -= nums[left++];
}
}
return res == INT_MAX ? 0 : res;
}
};
二分法
// O(nlgn)
class Solution {
public:
int minSubArrayLen(int s, vector<int>& nums) {
int len = nums.size(), sums[len + 1] = {0}, res = len + 1;
for (int i = 1; i < len + 1; ++i) sums[i] = sums[i - 1] + nums[i - 1];
for (int i = 0; i < len + 1; ++i) {
int right = searchRight(i + 1, len, sums[i] + s, sums);
if (right == len + 1) break;
if (res > right - i) res = right - i;
}
return res == len + 1 ? 0 : res;
}
int searchRight(int left, int right, int key, int sums[]) {
while (left <= right) {
int mid = (left + right) / 2;
if (sums[mid] >= key) right = mid - 1;
else left = mid + 1;
}
return left;
}
};
这个解法要用到二分查找法,思路是,我们建立一个比原数组长一位的sums数组,其中sums[i]表示nums数组中[0, i - 1]的和,然后我们对于sums中每一个值sums[i],用二分查找法找到子数组的右边界位置,使该子数组之和大于sums[i] + s,为什么要加上s呢,因为前面我们已经计算出了加上数组前面的和,那么我们只需要判断当前的值加上s等于后面的哪个值,就可以得出后面的值的下标,其实那个s就是前面和后面之间的原数组的值的和,然后我们更新最短长度的距离即可。
或者不需要新加一个函数
class Solution {
public:
int minSubArrayLen(int s, vector<int>& nums) {
int res = INT_MAX, n = nums.size();
vector<int> sums(n + 1, 0);
for (int i = 1; i < n + 1; ++i) sums[i] = sums[i - 1] + nums[i - 1];
for (int i = 0; i < n; ++i) {
int left = i + 1, right = n, t = sums[i] + s;
while (left <= right) {
int mid = left + (right - left) / 2;
if (sums[mid] < t) left = mid + 1;
else right = mid - 1;
}
if (left == n + 1) break;
res = min(res, left - i);
}
return res == INT_MAX ? 0 : res;
}
};
总结
看来并不能直接看别人的说的去实现,还是要自己去理解才行,每个人有每个人自己的理解。
