Decode the Coding Interview in Java: Real-World Examples

DIY: 3Sum Closest

Explore how to implement the Three Sum Closest algorithm in Java, finding three integers in an array that sum closest to a target. This lesson helps you understand problem constraints and develop a function to solve this common coding interview challenge.

We'll cover the following...

Problem statement

You are given an integer array nums and an integer variable target as inputs. Your task is to find the three numbers in the given array that sum closest to the value target. You must return the sum of these three numbers.

Constraints

  • 3 <= nums.length <= 1000
  • -1000 <= nums[i] <= 1000
  • -
