Solution: Two Sum III - Data structure design
Explore how to design a custom data structure tailored to the Two Sum III problem. Learn to implement add and find methods using a hash map to track number frequencies, enabling efficient checks for pairs summing to a target value. Understand the algorithm's time and space complexity for optimized coding interview solutions.
We'll cover the following...
Statement
Design a data structure that takes in a stream of numbers and can check if any two numbers add up to a specific value.
Implement the TwoSum class with the following constructor and methods:
Constructor: Sets up the
TwoSumobject with an empty list at the start.void add(int number): Adds a new number to the list.
boolean find(int value): Returns TRUE if any two numbers in the list add up to the given value. If not, it returns FALSE.
Constraints: ...
