【Leetcode】Longest Consecutive Sequence
Given an unsorted array of integers, find the length of the longest consecutive elements sequence.
For example,
Given [100, 4, 200, 1, 3, 2]
,
The longest consecutive elements sequence is [1, 2, 3, 4]
. Return its length: 4
.
Your algorithm should run in O(n) complexity.
数据元素无序但要求时间复杂度O(n)应联想到hash.
stl中unordered_map(c++ 11) 和 hash_map 速度比map(红黑树实现)快。新的标准推荐用unordered_map代替hash_map。
