88. Merge Sorted Array

Problem

Given two sorted integer arrays nums1 and nums2, merge nums2 into nums1 as one sorted array.

Note:

• The number of elements initialized in nums1 and nums2 are m and n respectively.
• You may assume that nums1 has enough space (size that is greater or equal to m + n) to hold additional elements from nums2.

Example:

Input:
nums1 = [1,2,3,0,0,0], m = 3
nums2 = [2,5,6],       n = 3

Output: [1,2,2,3,5,6]

Solution

/**
 * @param {number[]} nums1
 * @param {number} m
 * @param {number[]} nums2
 * @param {number} n
 * @return {void} Do not return anything, modify nums1 in-place instead.
 */
var merge = function(nums1, m, nums2, n) {
  var i = m - 1;
  var j = n - 1;
  var k = m + n - 1;
  while (j >= 0) {
    nums1[k--] = i >= 0 && nums1[i] > nums2[j] ? nums1[i--] : nums2[j--];
  }
};

Explain:

nope.

Complexity:

• Time complexity : O(n).
• Space complexity : O(1).
