Problem
Given an array nums
of integers, return the length of the longest arithmetic subsequence in nums
.
Note that:
- A subsequence is an array that can be derived from another array by deleting some or no elements without changing the order of the remaining elements.
- A sequence
seq
is arithmetic ifseq[i + 1] - seq[i]
are all the same value (for0 <= i < seq.length - 1
).
Example 1:
Input: nums = [3,6,9,12] Output: 4 Explanation: The whole array is an arithmetic sequence with steps of length = 3.
Example 2:
Input: nums = [9,4,7,2,10] Output: 3 Explanation: The longest arithmetic subsequence is [4,7,10].
Example 3:
Input: nums = [20,1,15,3,10,5,8] Output: 4 Explanation: The longest arithmetic subsequence is [20,15,10,5].
Constraints:
2 <= nums.length <= 1000
0 <= nums[i] <= 500
