Nearly every one have used the . But could you find out the k-th
smallest number quickly from the multiplication table?
Given the height m
and the length n
of a m * n
Multiplication Table, and a positive integer k
, you need to return the k-th
smallest number in this table.
Example 1:
Input: m = 3, n = 3, k = 5Output: Explanation: The Multiplication Table:1 2 32 4 63 6 9The 5-th smallest number is 3 (1, 2, 2, 3, 3).
Example 2:
Input: m = 2, n = 3, k = 6Output: Explanation: The Multiplication Table:1 2 32 4 6The 6-th smallest number is 6 (1, 2, 2, 3, 4, 6).
Note:
- The
m
andn
will be in the range [1, 30000]. - The
k
will be in the range [1, m * n]
class Solution {public: int findKthNumber(int m, int n, int k) { int left = 1,right = m*n; while(left=k)right = mid; else left = mid+1; } return left; } private: int count(int mid,int m,int n) { int res = 0; for(int i = 1;i<=m;i++) res+=min(mid/i,n); return res; }};
