Two Sum
Problem #two-sumEasy
Given an array of integers nums
and an integer target
, return indices of the two numbers such that they add up to target
.
You may assume that each input would have exactly one solution, and you may not use the same element twice.
You can return the answer in any order.
Examples:
Input: nums = [2,7,11,15], target = 9
Output: [0,1]
Explanation: Because nums[0] + nums[1] == 9, we return [0, 1].
Input: nums = [3,2,4], target = 6
Output: [1,2]
Explanation: Because nums[1] + nums[2] == 6, we return [1, 2].
Input: nums = [3,3], target = 6
Output: [0,1]
Explanation: Because nums[0] + nums[1] == 6, we return [0, 1].
Constraints:
- 2 <= nums.length <= 10^4
- -10^9 <= nums[i] <= 10^9
- -10^9 <= target <= 10^9
- Only one valid answer exists.
Hints:
- Try using a HashMap to store values you've seen.
- For each number, check if target - number exists in the HashMap.
- Using a single pass approach, you can solve this in O(n) time complexity.
