这是一个解决方案,它不依赖于复杂的数学,如sdcvvc /Dimitris Andreou的答案,不像caf和Colonel Panic那样改变输入数组,也不像Chris Lercher, JeremyP和许多其他人那样使用巨大的bitset。基本上,我从Svalorzen /Gilad Deutch关于Q2的想法开始,将其推广到常见情况Qk,并在Java中实现,以证明算法是有效的。
这个想法
假设我们有一个任意区间I其中我们只知道它包含至少一个缺失的数。在一次遍历输入数组后,只查看来自I的数字,我们可以获得I中缺失数字的S和Q。我们通过每次遇到来自I的数字时简单地减去I的长度(以获得Q),并通过每次将I中所有数字的预计算总和减去遇到的数字(以获得S)来实现这一点。
Now we look at S and Q. If Q = 1, it means that then I contains only one of the missing numbers, and this number is clearly S. We mark I as finished (it is called "unambiguous" in the program) and leave it out from further consideration. On the other hand, if Q > 1, we can calculate the average A = S / Q of missing numbers contained in I. As all numbers are distinct, at least one of such numbers is strictly less than A and at least one is strictly greater than A. Now we split I in A into two smaller intervals each of which contains at least one missing number. Note that it doesn't matter to which of the intervals we assign A in case it is an integer.
We make the next array pass calculating S and Q for each of the intervals separately (but in the same pass) and after that mark intervals with Q = 1 and split intervals with Q > 1. We continue this process until there are no new "ambiguous" intervals, i.e. we have nothing to split because each interval contains exactly one missing number (and we always know this number because we know S). We start out from the sole "whole range" interval containing all possible numbers (like [1..N] in the question).
时空复杂性分析
在过程停止之前,我们需要通过的总次数p永远不会大于缺失数k。不等式p <= k可以被严格证明。另一方面,也有一个经验上限p < log2N + 3,这对于k的大值是有用的。我们需要对输入数组的每个数字进行二进制搜索,以确定它所属的区间。这给时间复杂度增加了log k乘数。
总的来说,时间复杂度为O(N᛫min(k, log N)᛫log k).注意,对于较大的k,这明显优于sdcvvc/Dimitris Andreou的方法,即O(N᛫k)。
对于它的工作,该算法需要O(k)个额外的空间来存储最多k个间隔,这明显优于“bitset”解决方案中的O(N)。
Java实现
下面是一个实现上述算法的Java类。它总是返回一个由缺失数字组成的有序数组。除此之外,它不需要缺少的数字计算k,因为它在第一次传递中计算k。整个数字范围由minNumber和maxNumber参数给出(例如,问题中的第一个例子是1和100)。
public class MissingNumbers {
private static class Interval {
boolean ambiguous = true;
final int begin;
int quantity;
long sum;
Interval(int begin, int end) { // begin inclusive, end exclusive
this.begin = begin;
quantity = end - begin;
sum = quantity * ((long)end - 1 + begin) / 2;
}
void exclude(int x) {
quantity--;
sum -= x;
}
}
public static int[] find(int minNumber, int maxNumber, NumberBag inputBag) {
Interval full = new Interval(minNumber, ++maxNumber);
for (inputBag.startOver(); inputBag.hasNext();)
full.exclude(inputBag.next());
int missingCount = full.quantity;
if (missingCount == 0)
return new int[0];
Interval[] intervals = new Interval[missingCount];
intervals[0] = full;
int[] dividers = new int[missingCount];
dividers[0] = minNumber;
int intervalCount = 1;
while (true) {
int oldCount = intervalCount;
for (int i = 0; i < oldCount; i++) {
Interval itv = intervals[i];
if (itv.ambiguous)
if (itv.quantity == 1) // number inside itv uniquely identified
itv.ambiguous = false;
else
intervalCount++; // itv will be split into two intervals
}
if (oldCount == intervalCount)
break;
int newIndex = intervalCount - 1;
int end = maxNumber;
for (int oldIndex = oldCount - 1; oldIndex >= 0; oldIndex--) {
// newIndex always >= oldIndex
Interval itv = intervals[oldIndex];
int begin = itv.begin;
if (itv.ambiguous) {
// split interval itv
// use floorDiv instead of / because input numbers can be negative
int mean = (int)Math.floorDiv(itv.sum, itv.quantity) + 1;
intervals[newIndex--] = new Interval(mean, end);
intervals[newIndex--] = new Interval(begin, mean);
} else
intervals[newIndex--] = itv;
end = begin;
}
for (int i = 0; i < intervalCount; i++)
dividers[i] = intervals[i].begin;
for (inputBag.startOver(); inputBag.hasNext();) {
int x = inputBag.next();
// find the interval to which x belongs
int i = java.util.Arrays.binarySearch(dividers, 0, intervalCount, x);
if (i < 0)
i = -i - 2;
Interval itv = intervals[i];
if (itv.ambiguous)
itv.exclude(x);
}
}
assert intervalCount == missingCount;
for (int i = 0; i < intervalCount; i++)
dividers[i] = (int)intervals[i].sum;
return dividers;
}
}
For fairness, this class receives input in form of NumberBag objects. NumberBag doesn't allow array modification and random access and also counts how many times the array was requested for sequential traversing. It is also more suitable for large array testing than Iterable<Integer> because it avoids boxing of primitive int values and allows wrapping a part of a large int[] for a convenient test preparation. It is not hard to replace, if desired, NumberBag by int[] or Iterable<Integer> type in the find signature, by changing two for-loops in it into foreach ones.
import java.util.*;
public abstract class NumberBag {
private int passCount;
public void startOver() {
passCount++;
}
public final int getPassCount() {
return passCount;
}
public abstract boolean hasNext();
public abstract int next();
// A lightweight version of Iterable<Integer> to avoid boxing of int
public static NumberBag fromArray(int[] base, int fromIndex, int toIndex) {
return new NumberBag() {
int index = toIndex;
public void startOver() {
super.startOver();
index = fromIndex;
}
public boolean hasNext() {
return index < toIndex;
}
public int next() {
if (index >= toIndex)
throw new NoSuchElementException();
return base[index++];
}
};
}
public static NumberBag fromArray(int[] base) {
return fromArray(base, 0, base.length);
}
public static NumberBag fromIterable(Iterable<Integer> base) {
return new NumberBag() {
Iterator<Integer> it;
public void startOver() {
super.startOver();
it = base.iterator();
}
public boolean hasNext() {
return it.hasNext();
}
public int next() {
return it.next();
}
};
}
}
测试
下面给出了演示这些类用法的简单示例。
import java.util.*;
public class SimpleTest {
public static void main(String[] args) {
int[] input = { 7, 1, 4, 9, 6, 2 };
NumberBag bag = NumberBag.fromArray(input);
int[] output = MissingNumbers.find(1, 10, bag);
System.out.format("Input: %s%nMissing numbers: %s%nPass count: %d%n",
Arrays.toString(input), Arrays.toString(output), bag.getPassCount());
List<Integer> inputList = new ArrayList<>();
for (int i = 0; i < 10; i++)
inputList.add(2 * i);
Collections.shuffle(inputList);
bag = NumberBag.fromIterable(inputList);
output = MissingNumbers.find(0, 19, bag);
System.out.format("%nInput: %s%nMissing numbers: %s%nPass count: %d%n",
inputList, Arrays.toString(output), bag.getPassCount());
// Sieve of Eratosthenes
final int MAXN = 1_000;
List<Integer> nonPrimes = new ArrayList<>();
nonPrimes.add(1);
int[] primes;
int lastPrimeIndex = 0;
while (true) {
primes = MissingNumbers.find(1, MAXN, NumberBag.fromIterable(nonPrimes));
int p = primes[lastPrimeIndex]; // guaranteed to be prime
int q = p;
for (int i = lastPrimeIndex++; i < primes.length; i++) {
q = primes[i]; // not necessarily prime
int pq = p * q;
if (pq > MAXN)
break;
nonPrimes.add(pq);
}
if (q == p)
break;
}
System.out.format("%nSieve of Eratosthenes. %d primes up to %d found:%n",
primes.length, MAXN);
for (int i = 0; i < primes.length; i++)
System.out.format(" %4d%s", primes[i], (i % 10) < 9 ? "" : "\n");
}
}
大数组测试可以这样执行:

this.missingCount = missingCount;
// numbers array is reused when numberCount stays the same,
// just Fisher–Yates shuffle it for each test

return inputBag.getPassCount();

}
}
public static void main(String[] args) {
