For example,
Given
[1,1,1,2,2,3]
and k = 2, return [1,2]
.
Note:
- You may assume k is always valid, 1 ≤ k ≤ number of unique elements.
- Your algorithm's time complexity must be better than O(n log n), where n is the array's size.
1. calculate statistics of frequency by using hash table/map
2. putting map entries to priority queue by defining proper comparator that makes it sorting by frequency high to low
1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 21 22 23 24 25 26 27 28 29 30 | public class Solution { public List<Integer> topKFrequent(int[] nums, int k) { HashMap<Integer,Integer> frequencyMap = new HashMap<Integer,Integer>(); //counte frequence with dict/hashmap/hashtable for(int i=0;i<nums.length;i++){ if(frequencyMap.get(nums[i])==null){ frequencyMap.put(nums[i],1); } else{ frequencyMap.put(nums[i],frequencyMap.get(nums[i])+1); } } //sort according to frequency by putting them in priority queue backed by reversed number order PriorityQueue<Map.Entry<Integer, Integer>> pq= new PriorityQueue<Map.Entry<Integer, Integer>>( new Comparator<Map.Entry<Integer, Integer>>(){ public int compare(Map.Entry<Integer, Integer> e1,Map.Entry<Integer, Integer> e2){ return e2.getValue()-e1.getValue(); } }); pq.addAll(frequencyMap.entrySet()); List<Integer> aList = new ArrayList<Integer>(); //retrieve top k numbers while(k>0&&!pq.isEmpty()){ k--; aList.add(pq.poll().getKey()); } return aList; } } |
