2762. Continuous Subarrays

中文文档

Description

You are given a 0-indexed integer array nums. A subarray of nums is called continuous if:

• Let i, i + 1, ..., j be the indices in the subarray. Then, for each pair of indices i <= i1, i2 <= j, 0 <= |nums[i1] - nums[i2]| <= 2.

Return the total number of continuous subarrays.

A subarray is a contiguous non-empty sequence of elements within an array.

 

Example 1:

Input: nums = [5,4,2,4]
Output: 8
Explanation: 
Continuous subarray of size 1: [5], [4], [2], [4].
Continuous subarray of size 2: [5,4], [4,2], [2,4].
Continuous subarray of size 3: [4,2,4].
Thereare no subarrys of size 4.
Total continuous subarrays = 4 + 3 + 1 = 8.
It can be shown that there are no more continuous subarrays.

 

Example 2:

Input: nums = [1,2,3]
Output: 6
Explanation: 
Continuous subarray of size 1: [1], [2], [3].
Continuous subarray of size 2: [1,2], [2,3].
Continuous subarray of size 3: [1,2,3].
Total continuous subarrays = 3 + 2 + 1 = 6.

 

Constraints:

• 1 <= nums.length <= 105
• 1 <= nums[i] <= 109

Solutions

Solution 1: Ordered List + Two Pointers

We can use two pointers, $i$ and $j$, to maintain the left and right endpoints of the current subarray, and use an ordered list to maintain all elements in the current subarray.

Iterate through the array $nums$. For the current number $nums[i]$ we're iterating over, we add it to the ordered list. If the difference between the maximum and minimum values in the ordered list is greater than $2$, we then loop to move the pointer $i$ to the right, continuously removing $nums[i]$ from the ordered list, until the list is empty or the maximum difference between elements in the ordered list is not greater than $2$. At this point, the number of uninterrupted subarrays is $j - i + 1$, which we add to the answer.

After the iteration, return the answer.

The time complexity is $O(n \times \log n)$ and the space complexity is $O(n)$, where $n$ is the length of the array $nums$.
