Problem

Given an integer array nums and an integer k, return true if there are two distinct indices i and j in the array such that nums[i] == nums[j] and abs(i - j) <= k.

https://leetcode.cn/problems/contains-duplicate-ii/

Example 1:

Input: nums = [1,2,3,1], k = 3
Output: true

Example 2:

Input: nums = [1,0,1,1], k = 1
Output: true

Example 3:

Input: nums = [1,2,3,1,2,3], k = 2
Output: false

Constraints:

  • 1 <= nums.length <= 10⁵
  • -10⁹ <= nums[i] <= 10⁹
  • 0 <= k <= 10⁵

Thoughts

217. Contains Duplicate 差不多,增加了对元素下标间距的限制。可以把集合改成字典,记录见到的数字所在的下标,如果再次见到相同的数字,比较一下两次的下标即可。

return False
