题目描述

Given an array nums of n integers and an integer target, are there elements a, b, c, and d in nums such that a + b + c + d = target? Find all unique quadruplets in the array which gives the sum of target.

Note:

Thesolution set must not contain duplicate quadruplets.

Example:

Given array nums = [1, 0, -1, 0, -2, 2], and target = 0.

Asolution set is:

[
  [-1,  0, 0, 1],
  [-2, -1, 1, 2],
  [-2,  0, 0, 2]
]

题目大意

找出一个数组中所有的和为target的四个数字,要求返回的结果里面不准有重复的四元组。

解题方法

遍历

总结一下 K-sum 题目。

1、 首先先排序;
2、 然后用K−2个指针做O(N^(K-2))的遍历;
3、 剩下2个指针从第2步的剩余区间里面找,找的方式是使用两个指针p,q分别指向剩余区间的首尾,判断两个指针的和与target-第2步的和的关系,对应的移动指针即如果两个数的和大了,那么,q--;如果两个数的和小了,那么,p++;等于的话,输出结果要时刻注意p<q.;
4、 用p,q查找剩余区间结束之后,需要移动前面的K-2个值,这里需要在移动的过程中做个去重,找到和前面不同的值继续查找剩余区间;

时间复杂度是O(N^3),空间复杂度是O(1).
