Question: Search a 2D Matrix

Write an efficient algorithm that searches for a value in an m x n matrix. This matrix has the following properties:

  • Integers in each row are sorted from left to right.
  • The first integer of each row is greater than the last integer of the previous row.

For example,

Consider the following matrix:

[
[1, 3, 5, 7],
[10, 11, 16, 20],
[23, 30, 34, 50]
]

Given target = 3, return true.

Analysis:

写出一个算法,能够找出一个m * n矩阵中是否含一个数。这个m*n的矩阵有如下性质:

1. 每行的整数从左到右是有序的;

2. 每行的第一个整数要比上一行的最后一个整数大。

思路:

不论是单行有序或整体有序,都可以使用这样的策略解决问题:

从矩阵的右上角开始寻找,如果target比他大,则往下找;如果target比他小,则往左找,如果矩阵中确实存在这个数,则一定能找到,若找到最后也没有找到,则返回false。

这道题目还可以用二分法解决。用两次二分法,先找到行,再找到列。(但是对于单行有序的题目来说则不适合解决)

Answer:

public class Solution {
public boolean searchMatrix(int[][] matrix, int target) {
if(matrix == null || matrix.length == 0 || matrix[0].length == 0)
return false;
int row = matrix.length;
int col = matrix[0].length;
int i = 0;
int j = matrix[0].length-1;
while(i < matrix.length && j >= 0) {
if(matrix[i][j] == target)
return true;
else if(matrix[i][j] < target)
i++;
else if(matrix[i][j] > target)
j--;
}
return false;
}
}
 Question: Search a 2D Matrix II

Write an efficient algorithm that searches for a value in an m x n matrix. This matrix has the following properties:

  • Integers in each row are sorted in ascending from left to right.
  • Integers in each column are sorted in ascending from top to bottom.

For example,

Consider the following matrix:

[
[1, 4, 7, 11, 15],
[2, 5, 8, 12, 19],
[3, 6, 9, 16, 22],
[10, 13, 14, 17, 24],
[18, 21, 23, 26, 30]
]

Given target = 5, return true.

Given target = 20, return false.

Analsyis:

这个题目与上面不同的是,矩阵的性质是:

1. 每行从走到有是有序的;

2. 每列从上到下是有序的;

但满足这两个性质并不能保证这个矩阵整体是有序的,因此用二分法一定不能解决问题,但是我们可以使用上面从右上角开始,更新i,j的值来寻找矩阵中是否存在这个元素的方法。

Answer:

public class Solution {
public boolean searchMatrix(int[][] matrix, int target) {
if(matrix == null || matrix.length == 0 || matrix[0].length == 0)
return false;
int row = matrix.length;
int col = matrix[0].length;
int i = 0;
int j = matrix[0].length-1;
while(i < matrix.length && j >= 0) {
if(matrix[i][j] == target)
return true;
else if(matrix[i][j] < target)
i++;
else if(matrix[i][j] > target)
j--;
}
return false;
}
}
