""" 973. K Closest Points to Origin Difficulty: Medium https://leetcode.com/problems/k-closest-points-to-origin/ ────────────────────────────────────────────────── Given an array of points where points[i] = [xi, yi] represents a point on the X-Y plane and an integer k, return the k closest points to the origin (0, 0). The distance between two points on the X-Y plane is the Euclidean distance (i.e., √(x1 - x2)^2 + (y1 - y2)^2). You may return the answer in any order. The answer is guaranteed to be unique (except for the order that it is in). Example 1: Input: points = [[1,3],[-2,2]], k = 1 Output: [[-2,2]] Explanation: The distance between (1, 3) and the origin is sqrt(10). The distance between (-2, 2) and the origin is sqrt(8). Since sqrt(8) < sqrt(10), (-2, 2) is closer to the origin. We only want the closest k = 1 points from the origin, so the answer is just [[-2,2]]. Example 2: Input: points = [[3,3],[5,-1],[-2,4]], k = 2 Output: [[3,3],[-2,4]] Explanation: The answer [[-2,4],[3,3]] would also be accepted. Constraints: • 1 <= k <= points.length <= 10^4 • -10^4 <= xi, yi <= 10^4 """ import heapq class Solution: def kClosest(self, points: List[List[int]], k: int) -> List[List[int]]: minHeap = [] for x, y in points: dist = (x**2) + (y**2) minHeap.append([dist, x, y]) heapq.heapify(minHeap) res = [] while k > 0: dist, x, y = heapq.heappop(minHeap) res.append([x, y]) k -= 1 return res
