Given the array nums consisting of 2n elements in the form [x1,x2,...,xn,y1,y2,...,yn]. Return the array in the form [x1,y1,x2,y2,...,xn,yn].
Example 1:
Input: nums = [2,5,1,3,4,7], n = 3
Output: [2,3,5,4,1,7]
Explanation: Since x1=2, x2=5, x3=1, y1=3, y2=4, y3=7 then the answer is [2,3,5,4,1,7].
Example 2:
Input: nums = [1,2,3,4,4,3,2,1], n = 4
Output: [1,4,2,3,3,2,4,1]
Example 3:
Input: nums = [1,1,2,2], n = 2
Output: [1,2,1,2]
1 <= prices.length <= 105
0 <= prices[i] <= 104
This was easy at a second glance, but hard to come with the best solution, even now it can be optimized. but I do not possess the ability (currently) to do it...
class Solution {
public int[] shuffle(int[] nums, int n) {
int[] answer = new int[nums.length];
int secondIterator = 0;
for(int i=0;n+i<nums.length;i++){
answer[secondIterator] = nums[i];
answer[secondIterator+1] = nums[n+i];
secondIterator+=2;
}
return answer;
}
}
