219. Contains Duplicate II

Description

Given an integer array nums and an integer k, return true if there are two distinct indices i and j in the array such that nums[i] == nums[j] and abs(i - j) <= k.

 

Example 1:

Input: nums = [1,2,3,1], k = 3
Output: true

Example 2:

Input: nums = [1,0,1,1], k = 1
Output: true

Example 3:

Input: nums = [1,2,3,1,2,3], k = 2
Output: false

 

Constraints:

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

Solutions

Solution 1: Hash Table

We use a hash table $d$ to store the nearest index of the number it has visited.

We traverse the array nums. For the current element $nums[i]$, if it exists in the hash table, and the difference between its index and the current index is no larger than $k$, then return true. Otherwise, we add the current element into the hash table.

After the traversal, return false.

The time complexity is $O(n)$ and the space complexity is $O(n)$. Here $n$ is the length of array nums.
