# Challenge name: Intersection of two arrays ii
#
# Given two arrays, write a function to compute their intersection.
#
# @param {Integer[]} nums1
# @param {Integer[]} nums2
# @return {Integer[]}
#
# Approach 1: Brute Force
#
# Time Complexity: O(n^2)
#
def intersect(arr1, arr2)
result = []
if arr1.length < arr2.length
shorter = arr1
longer = arr2
else
shorter = arr2
longer = arr1
end
shorter.each do |matcher|
longer.each do |number|
next if number != matcher
result.push(number)
break
end
end
result
end
nums1 = [1, 2, 2, 1]
nums2 = [2, 2]
puts intersect(nums1, nums2)
# => [2,2]
nums1 = [4, 9, 5]
nums2 = [9, 4, 9, 8, 4]
puts intersect(nums1, nums2)
# => [4,9]
#
# Approach 2: Hash
#
# Complexity Analysis
#
# Time Complexity: O(n+m), where n and m are the lengths of the arrays.
# We iterate through the first, and then through the second array; insert
# and lookup operations in the hash map take a constant time.
#
# Space Complexity: O(min(n,m)). We use hash map to store numbers (and their
# counts) from the smaller array.
#
def intersect(arr1, arr2)
result = []
hash = Hash.new(0)
arr2.each { |num| hash[num] += 1 }
arr1.each do |num|
if hash.has_key?(num)
result << num if hash[num] >= 1
hash[num] -= 1

nums1 = [4, 9, 5]
nums2 = [9, 4, 9, 8, 4]
puts intersect(nums1, nums2)
# => [4,9]
#
# Approach 3: Two Pointers
#
# Complexity analysis:
# Time Complexity: O(nlogn + mlogm), where n and m are the lengths of the arrays. We sort two arrays independently and then do a linear scan.
# Space Complexity: from O(logn+logm) to O(n+m), depending on the implementation of the sorting algorithm.
