Problem: Valid Triangle Number

Medium
30 min
Explore how to determine the number of unique triplets in an array that can form valid triangles. Learn to apply sorting and search strategies like two-pointer techniques to efficiently solve the problem using the triangle inequality condition.

Statement

Given an array of integers, nums, determine the number of unique triplets that can be selected from the array such that the selected values can form the sides of a valid triangleA triangle is valid if the sum of the lengths of any two smaller sides is strictly greater than the length of the third largest side. For three sides a, b, c (such that a ≤ b ≤ c), the condition to form a valid triangle is a + b > c.. Return this count as the result.

Constraints:

  • 1<=1 <= nums.length <=1000<= 1000

  • 0<=0 <= nums[i] <=1000<= 1000
