题目:
Given a collection of intervals, merge all overlapping intervals.
Example 1:
Input: [[1,3],[2,6],[8,10],[15,18]] Output: [[1,6],[8,10],[15,18]] Explanation: Since intervals [1,3] and [2,6] overlaps, merge them into [1,6].
Example 2:
Input: [[1,4],[4,5]] Output: [[1,5]] Explanation: Intervals [1,4] and [4,5] are considered overlapping.

分析:
给定一个区间的集合,合并所有重复的区间。
也就是将重复的区间合并成一个大的区间,例如[1,5]和[3,7]将会合并成[1,7],做法就是先将区间按左端点值由小到大排序,然后遍历区间,当后一个区间的左端点值大于它前一个区间的右端点值,代表两个区间无重复部分,将前一个加入到结果中,反之,代表有重复的,需要合并两个区间,由于区间的顺序由左端点值排序,则合并后的区间的左端点值等于前一个区间的左端点值,而右端点值则在两个区间的右端点值中取最大值,因为有可能发生包含这种情况,比如[1,7]和[3,5]这种,合并后就还是[1,7]。
程序:
C++
class Solution { public: vector<vector<int>> merge(vector<vector<int>>& intervals) { if(intervals.size() == 0) return {}; vector<vector<int>> res; sort(intervals.begin(), intervals.end(), cmp()); for(auto interval:intervals){ if(res.empty()) res.push_back(interval); else if(res.back()[1] < interval[0]) res.push_back(interval); else{ auto t = res.back(); res.pop_back(); res.push_back({t[0], max(t[1], interval[1])}); } } return res; } struct cmp { bool operator() (const vector<int>& A, const vector<int>& B) { return A[0] < B[0]; } }; };
Java
class Solution { public int[][] merge(int[][] intervals) { if(intervals.length == 0) return intervals; Arrays.sort(intervals, (o1, o2) -> { return o1[0] - o2[0]; }); LinkedList<int[]> res = new LinkedList<>(); for(int[] interval:intervals){ if(res.isEmpty()) res.add(interval); else if(res.getLast()[1] < interval[0]) res.add(interval); else{ int[] t = res.removeLast(); res.add(new int[]{t[0], Math.max(t[1], interval[1])}); } } return res.toArray(new int[res.size()][]); } }
