Solution: Count Pairs Whose Sum is Less than Target

Discover how to solve the problem of counting pairs in an integer array whose sum is less than a target using the two pointers approach. Learn to sort the array and utilize two pointers to efficiently find and count all valid pairs without redundant checks.

Statement

You are given a 0-indexed integer array, nums, of length nn, and an integer target. Your task is to determine the number of distinct pairs of indexes (i,j)(i, j) such that:

  • 0i<j<n0 \leq i < j < n (i.e., ii comes before jj ...
