Given an array of integers, find out whether there are two distinct indices i and j in the array such that the absolute difference between nums[i] and nums[j] is at most t and the absolute difference between i and j is at most k.

Example 1:

Input: nums = [1,2,3,1], k = 3, t = 0
Output: true

Example 2:

Input: nums = [1,0,1,1], k = 1, t = 2
Output: true

Example 3:

Input: nums = [1,5,9,1,5,9], k = 2, t = 3
Output: false

Solution

Time complexity : O(nlog(k))
Space complexity : O(k)

class Solution {
public:
    bool containsNearbyAlmostDuplicate(vector<int>& nums, int k, int t) {
        multiset<long> ms;
        for (int i=0; i<nums.size(); ++i) {
            if (i>k) ms.erase(ms.find(nums[i-k-1]));
            
            multiset<long>::iterator it = ms.insert(nums[i]);
            
            if (it != ms.begin() && *it-*prev(it) <= t)
                return true;
            if (next(it) != ms.end() && *next(it)-*it <= t)
                return true;
        }
        return false;
    }
};

利用multiset做為sliding window中,數值已排序的資料結構。
(multiset與set皆為Balanced BST,其insert, search, delete皆為O(log(n)),差在multiset允許重覆值,set不可。)

分析新插入的值:
若其不為頭,且與排序中前一值的差距不超於t,返回true。
若其不為尾,且與排序中後一值的差距不超於t,返回true。

做到結束都沒有好結果,返回false。
