Description

Given a 1-indexed array of integers numbers that is already sorted in non-decreasing order, find two numbers such that they add up to a specific target number. Let these two numbers be numbers[index1] and numbers[index2] where 1 <= index1 < index2 <= numbers.length.

Return the indices of the two numbers, index1 and index2, added by one as an integer array [index1, index2] of length 2.

The tests are generated such that there is exactly one solution. You may not use the same element twice.

Your solution must use only constant extra space.

Example 1:

Input: numbers = [2,7,11,15], target = 9 Output: [1,2] Explanation: The sum of 2 and 7 is 9. Therefore, index1 = 1, index2 = 2. We return [1, 2].

Example 2:

Input: numbers = [2,3,4], target = 6 Output: [1,3] Explanation: The sum of 2 and 4 is 6. Therefore index1 = 1, index2 = 3. We return [1, 3].

Example 3:

Input: numbers = [-1,0], target = -1 Output: [1,2] Explanation: The sum of -1 and 0 is -1. Therefore index1 = 1, index2 = 2. We return [1, 2].

Constraints:

  • 2 <= numbers.length <= 3 * 104
  • -1000 <= numbers[i] <= 1000
  • numbers is sorted in non-decreasing order.
  • -1000 <= target <= 1000
  • The tests are generated such that there is exactly one solution.

Code

class Solution {
public:
    vector<int> twoSum(vector<int>& numbers, int target) {
        int n = numbers.size();
        int l = 0, r = n - 1;
        int total = numbers[l] + numbers[r];
        while(total != target) {
            if(total > target) r--;
            else l++;
            total = numbers[l] + numbers[r];
        }
 
        return {l+1, r+1};
    }
};
