Leetcode - Rotate Array

Question

Rotate an array of n elements to the right by k steps.

For example, with n = 7 and k = 3, the array [1,2,3,4,5,6,7] is rotated to [5,6,7,1,2,3,4].

Note

Try to come up as many solutions as you can, there are at least 3 different ways to solve this problem.

Hint

Could you do it in-place with O(1) extra space?

Java Code

//版本一：多次反转
public void rotate(int[] nums, int k) {
int n = nums.length;
//数组长度小于2或循环右移步数k正好是数组长度的整数倍，则数组不变
if(n < 2 || (k %= n) == 0) return;

//前n-k个数组元素反转
reverseArray(nums, 0, n-k-1);

//后k个数组元素反转
reverseArray(nums, n-k, n-1);

//整个数组反转
reverseArray(nums, 0, n-1);
}

public void reverseArray(int[] nums, int low, int high) {
int temp;
int medium = (low + high + 1)/2;
for(int i = low; i < medium; ++i) {
temp = nums[i];
nums[i] = nums[low + high - i];
nums[low + high - i] = temp;
}
}

//版本二：数组拷贝
public void rotate2(int[] nums, int k) {
int n = nums.length;
if(n < 2 || (k %= n) == 0) return;

//拷贝得到原数组的一个副本
int[] numsNew = new int
;
System.arraycopy(nums, 0, numsNew, 0, n);

//拷贝回原数组得到循环右移k步之后的元素
System.arraycopy(numsNew, 0, nums, k, n - k);
System.arraycopy(numsNew, n - k, nums, 0, k);
}

说明

本题的实质是实现数组的循环右移。第一种方法不使用任何额外的空间，共交换n次实现了数组的循环移位，这个做法比较巧妙，可以模拟验证一下其正确性；第二种方法需要额外的O(1)空间，我们分析得到循环移位之后数组元素的局部顺序保持不变，所以可以通过数组的分段拷贝一步到位实现循环移位，实测表明其效率比多次反转更高。
