Problem
Given an integer array nums
of length n
and an integer target
, find three integers in nums
such that the sum is closest to target
.
Return the sum of the three integers.
You may assume that each input would have exactly one solution.
Example 1:
Input: nums = [-1,2,1,-4], target = 1 Output: 2 Explanation: The sum that is closest to the target is 2. (-1 + 2 + 1 = 2).
Example 2:
Input: nums = [0,0,0], target = 1 Output: 0 Explanation: The sum that is closest to the target is 0. (0 + 0 + 0 = 0).
Constraints:
3 <= nums.length <= 500
-1000 <= nums[i] <= 1000
-104 <= target <= 104
