Interview 40 questions:
Title: smallest number k
Title: input n integers, find the smallest number K. 4,5,1,6,2,7,3,8 e.g. eight digital inputs, the minimum number is four 1,2,3,4 ,.
A problem-solving ideas:
class Solution:
def GetLeastNumbers_Solution(self, tinput, k):
if k >len(tinput):
return []
tinput.sort()
return tinput[:k]
Problem-solving ideas II:
class Solution:
def GetLeastNumbers_Solution(self, tinput, k):
# write code here
import heapq
#此方法时间复杂度为O(nlogk)
if k >len(tinput):
return []
return heapq.nsmallest(k,tinput)
Problem-solving ideas three:
def GetLeastNumbers_Solution(self, tinput, k):
import heapq as hq
if k > len(tinput) or k <= 0: return []
heap = [-x for x in tinput[:k]]
hq.heapify(heap)
for num in tinput[k:]:
if -heap[0] > num:
hq.heapreplace(heap, -num)
return sorted(-x for x in heap)
