1539. Kth Missing Positive Number

number

Given an array arr of positive integers sorted in a strictly increasing order, and an integer k.

Return the kth positive integer that is missing from this array.

Example 1:

Input: arr = [2,3,4,7,11], k = 5
Output: 9
Explanation: The missing positive integers are [1,5,6,8,9,10,12,13,...]. The 5th missing positive integer is 9.

Example 2:

Input: arr = [1,2,3,4], k = 2
Output: 6
Explanation: The missing positive integers are [5,6,7,...]. The 2nd missing positive integer is 6.

Constraints:

  • 1 <= arr.length <= 1000

  • 1 <= arr[i] <= 1000

  • 1 <= k <= 1000

  • arr[i] < arr[j] for 1 <= i < j <= arr.length

分析

直接遍历数组,一边计算当前缺失了几个数字,一边找。

class Solution:
    def findKthPositive(self, arr: List[int], k: int) -> int:
        missing = 0
        current = 1
        i = 0
        while True:
            if i < len(arr) and arr[i] == current:
                i += 1
            else:
                missing += 1
                if missing == k:
                    return current
            current += 1
