LeetCode in TypeScript
41. First Missing Positive
Hard
Given an unsorted integer array nums, return the smallest missing positive integer.
You must implement an algorithm that runs in O(n) time and uses constant extra space.
Example 1:
Input: nums = [1,2,0]
Output: 3
Example 2:
Input: nums = [3,4,-1,1]
Output: 2
Example 3:
Input: nums = [7,8,9,11,12]
Output: 1
Constraints:
1 <= nums.length <= 5 * 105-231 <= nums[i] <= 231 - 1
Solution
function firstMissingPositive(nums: number[]): number {
let i = 0
while (i < nums.length) {
let correctIndex = nums[i] - 1
if (nums[i] > 0 && nums[i] <= nums.length && nums[i] !== nums[correctIndex]) {
;[nums[i], nums[correctIndex]] = [nums[correctIndex], nums[i]]
} else {
i++
}
}
for (let i = 0; i < nums.length; i++) {
if (nums[i] !== i + 1) {
return i + 1
}
}
return nums.length + 1
}
export { firstMissingPositive }
