Environment: Python 3.8

Key technique: sort, for

You are given a 0-indexed integer array nums and a target element target.

A target index is an index i such that nums[i] == target.

Return a list of the target indices of nums after sorting nums in non-decreasing order. If there are no target indices, return an empty list. The returned list must be sorted in increasing order.

Example 1:

Input: nums = [1,2,5,2,3], target = 2
Output: [1,2]
Explanation: After sorting, nums is [1,2,2,3,5].
The indices where nums[i] == 2 are 1 and 2.

Analysis:

  1. Sort it.
  2. find the target in sorted nums.
  3. return its index.

Solution:

class Solution:
def targetIndices(self, nums, target):
nums.sort()
ans=[]
for i in range(len(nums)):
if nums[i]==target:
ans.append(i)
return ans
