905. Sort Array By Parity

Easy


Given an integer array nums, move all the even integers at the beginning of the array followed by all the odd integers.

Return any array that satisfies this condition.

Example 1:

Input: nums = [3,1,2,4]
Output: [2,4,3,1]
Explanation: The outputs [4,2,3,1], [2,4,1,3], and [4,2,1,3] would also be accepted.

Example 2:

Input: nums = [0]
Output: [0]

Constraints:

  • 1 <= nums.length <= 5000

  • 0 <= nums[i] <= 5000

class Solution:
    def sortArrayByParity(self, nums: List[int]) -> List[int]:
        left, right = 0, len(nums)-1
        while left < right:
            # Odd Number
            if nums[left] % 2 != 0:
                # Find even from right side
                while left < right and nums[right] % 2 != 0:
                    right -= 1
                nums[left], nums[right] = nums[right], nums[left]
            left += 1
        return nums
