[LeetCode] 1365. How Many Numbers Are Smaller Than the Current Number

Given the array nums, for each nums[i] find out how many numbers in the array are smaller than it. That is, for each nums[i] you have to count the number of valid j's such that j != i and nums[j] < nums[i].

Return the answer in an array.

Example 1:

Input: nums = [8,1,2,2,3]
Output: [4,0,1,1,3]
Explanation: 
For nums[0]=8 there exist four smaller numbers than it (1, 2, 2 and 3). 
For nums[1]=1 does not exist any smaller number than it.
For nums[2]=2 there exist one smaller number than it (1). 
For nums[3]=2 there exist one smaller number than it (1). 
For nums[4]=3 there exist three smaller numbers than it (1, 2 and 2).

Example 2:

Input: nums = [6,5,4,8]
Output: [2,1,0,3]

Example 3:

Input: nums = [7,7,7,7]
Output: [0,0,0,0]

Constraints:

  • 2 <= nums.length <= 500
  • 0 <= nums[i] <= 100

有多少小于当前数字的数字。

给你一个数组 nums,对于其中每个元素 nums[i],请你统计数组中比它小的所有数字的数目。

换而言之,对于每个 nums[i] 你必须计算出有效的 j 的数量,其中 j 满足 j != i 且 nums[j] < nums[i] 。

以数组形式返回答案。

题目即是题意,对于每一个数字nums[i],请你找出数组中到底有多少个数字小于他。

暴力解很简单,对于每一个数字nums[i],我们再次扫描数组,看看有多少个数字小于他。复杂度是O(n^2)。介于数据量不大,其实暴力解还是可以通过的。

 

最优解的思路是counting sort/bucket sort。因为数据的限制里面有这么一条,这个条件可以帮助我们确定bucket的数量。

0 <= nums[i] <= 100

所以我们可以创建101个桶子,然后遍历input数组,计算这101个数字每个数字的frequency。之后从0开始,往后累加每个数字的frequency。最后返回结果的时候,看一下对于每个数字nums[i],他在桶子对应坐标下的值是多少。

时间O(n)

空间O(n)

Java实现

 1 class Solution {
 2     public int[] smallerNumbersThanCurrent(int[] nums) {
 3         int[] freq = new int[101];
 4         // count the frequency
 5         for (int num : nums) {
 6             freq[num]++;
 7         }
 8         // sum up all the frequencies
 9         for (int i = 1; i < freq.length; i++) {
10             freq[i] += freq[i - 1];
11         }
12         // output
13         int[] res = new int[nums.length];
14         for (int i = 0; i < res.length; i++) {
15             if (nums[i] > 0) {
16                 res[i] = freq[nums[i] - 1];
17             }
18         }
19         return res;
20     }
21 }
