2229. Check if an Array Is Consecutive 🔒

Description

Given an integer array nums, return true if nums is consecutive, otherwise return false.

An array is consecutive if it contains every number in the range [x, x + n - 1] (inclusive), where x is the minimum number in the array and n is the length of the array.

Example 1:

Input: nums = [1,3,4,2]
Output: true
Explanation:
The minimum value is 1 and the length of nums is 4.
All of the values in the range [x, x + n - 1] = [1, 1 + 4 - 1] = [1, 4] = (1, 2, 3, 4) occur in nums.
Therefore, nums is consecutive.

Example 2:

Input: nums = [1,3]
Output: false
Explanation:
The minimum value is 1 and the length of nums is 2.
The value 2 in the range [x, x + n - 1] = [1, 1 + 2 - 1], = [1, 2] = (1, 2) does not occur in nums.
Therefore, nums is not consecutive.

Example 3:

Input: nums = [3,5,4]
Output: true
Explanation:
The minimum value is 3 and the length of nums is 3.
All of the values in the range [x, x + n - 1] = [3, 3 + 3 - 1] = [3, 5] = (3, 4, 5) occur in nums.
Therefore, nums is consecutive.

Constraints:

1 <= nums.length <= 10⁵
0 <= nums[i] <= 10⁵

Solutions

Solution 1: Hash Table

We can use a hash table $\textit{s}$ to store all the elements in the array $\textit{nums}$, and use two variables $\textit{mi}$ and $\textit{mx}$ to represent the minimum and maximum values in the array, respectively.

If all elements in the array are distinct and the length of the array equals the difference between the maximum and minimum values plus $1$, then the array is consecutive, and we return $\textit{true}$; otherwise, we return $\textit{false}$.

The time complexity is $O(n)$, and the space complexity is $O(n)$. Here, $n$ is the length of the array $\textit{nums}$.
