Nearly every one have used the Multiplication
Table. But could you find out the k-th
smallest number quickly from the
multiplication table?
Given the height m
and the length n
of a m * n
Multiplication Table, and a positive integer k
, you need to return the k-th
smallest number in this table.
Example 1:
Input: m = 3, n = 3, k = 5 Output: Explanation: The Multiplication Table: 1 2 3 2 4 6 3 6 9 The 5-th smallest number is 3 (1, 2, 2, 3, 3).
Example 2:
Input: m = 2, n = 3, k = 6 Output: Explanation: The Multiplication Table: 1 2 3 2 4 6 The 6-th smallest number is 6 (1, 2, 2, 3, 4, 6).
Note:
m
and n
will be in the range [1, 30000].k
will be in the range [1, m * n]
