Solution: Sort Colors
Explore how to apply the two pointer strategy to sort an array containing red, white, and blue colors in a single pass. Understand how to maintain and adjust pointers to group the colors in order without extra space, optimizing for time complexity and efficient data traversal.
Statement
Given an array, colors, which contains a combination of the following three elements:
0 (Representing red)
1 (Representing white)
2 (Representing blue)
Sort the array in place so that the elements of the same color are adjacent, and the final order is: red (0), then white (1), and then blue (2).
Note: You are not allowed to use any built-in sorting functions. The goal is to solve this efficiently without extra space.
Constraints:
colors.length...
