leetcode287 Find the Duplicate Number

Posted 2021-03-07 yawenw

 1 """
 2 Given an array nums containing n + 1 integers where each integer is between 1 and n (inclusive), prove that at least one duplicate number must exist. Assume that there is only one duplicate number, find the duplicate one.
 3 Example 1:
 4 Input: [1,3,4,2,2]
 5 Output: 2
 6 Example 2:
 7 Input: [3,1,3,4,2]
 8 Output: 3

11 解法一：
12 这道题竟然可以用快慢指针法！！！
13 与leetcode142类似。https://www.cnblogs.com/yawenw/p/12324170.html
14 因此找环 找重复值 都可以考虑用快慢指针法
