633. Sum of Square Numbers
Explanation:
To solve this problem, we can use a two-pointer approach. We initialize two pointers, left
at 0 and right
at the square root of c
. At each step, we calculate the sum of the squares of the values at these pointers. If the sum is equal to c
, we return true. If the sum is less than c
, we increment the left
pointer to increase the sum, and if the sum is greater than c
, we decrement the right
pointer to decrease the sum. We continue this process until left
is less than or equal to right
.
Time complexity: O(sqrt(c)) Space complexity: O(1)
:
class Solution {
public boolean judgeSquareSum(int c) {
int left = 0, right = (int)Math.sqrt(c);
while (left <= right) {
int sum = left*left + right*right;
if (sum == c) {
return true;
} else if (sum < c) {
left++;
} else {
right--;
}
}
return false;
}
}
