LeetCode - Shuffle the Array Solution - The Coding Shala

Home >> LeetCode >> Shuffle the Array

 In this post, we will learn how to solve LeetCode's Shuffle the Array problem and will implement its solution in Java.

Shuffle the Array

Given the array nums consisting of 2n elements in the form [x1,x2,...,xn,y1,y2,...,yn]. Return the array in the form [x1,y1,x2,y2,...,xn,yn].

Example 1:
Input: nums = [2,5,1,3,4,7], n = 3
Output: [2,3,5,4,1,7] 
Explanation: Since x1=2, x2=5, x3=1, y1=3, y2=4, y3=7 then the answer is [2,3,5,4,1,7].

Example 2:
Input: nums = [1,2,3,4,4,3,2,1], n = 4
Output: [1,4,2,3,3,2,4,1]

Shuffle the Array Java Solution

Approach 1:
Using a new Array.
Space complexity: O(n).

Java Program: 

class Solution {
    public int[] shuffle(int[] nums, int n) {
        int[] ans = new int[2*n];
        int j=0;
        for(int i=0; i<2*n; i=i+2){
            ans[i] = nums[j];
            ans[i+1] = nums[n+j];
            j++;
        }
        return ans;
    }
}
