### Problem
|
||
|
|
||
|
Given an integer array `nums`, return _the largest perimeter of a triangle with a non-zero area, formed from three of these lengths_. If it is impossible to form any triangle of a non-zero area, return `0`.
|
||
|
|
||
|
#### Examples
|
||
|
|
||
|
**Example 1:**
|
||
|
|
||
|
**Input:** nums = [2,1,2]
|
||
|
**Output:** 5
|
||
|
|
||
|
**Example 2:**
|
||
|
|
||
|
**Input:** nums = [1,2,1]
|
||
|
**Output:** 0
|
||
|
|
||
|
#### Constraints
|
||
|
|
||
|
- `3 <= nums.length <= 104`
|
||
|
- `1 <= nums[i] <= 106`
|
||
|
|
||
|
### Thoughts

|
||
|
|
||
|
After sorting, the answer must be consecutive 3 elements.
|
||
|
|
||
|
#### Why?
|
||
|
|
||
|
assume l, m , r.
|
||
|
|
||
|
if nums[l] + nums[m] < nums[r], because after sorting,
|
||
|
the order is ascending, anything before l and m will not suffice.
|
||
|
|
||
|
### Solution
|
||
|
|
||
|
```cpp
|
||
|
class Solution {
|
||
|
public:
|
||
|
int largestPerimeter(vector<int> &nums) {
|
||
|
sort(nums.begin(), nums.end());
|
||
|
int r = nums.size() - 1;
|
||
|
|
||
|
// change l first until its boundary
|
||
|
|
||
|
for (int i = r; i > 1; i--) {
|
||
|
if (nums[i] < nums[i - 1] + nums[i - 2]) {
|
||
|
return nums[i] + nums[i - 1] + nums[i - 2];
|
||
|
}
|
||
|
}
|
||
|
|
||
|
return 0;
|
||
|
}
|
||
|
};
|
||
|
```
