    nums holds only 0, 1 and 2 (red, white, blue). Sort it in place in one pass without a sort function, and return it.

    Input:  nums = [2,0,2,1,1,0]
    Output: [0,0,1,1,2,2]

    Example 2

    Input:  nums = [2,0,1]
    Output: [0,1,2]

    Constraints

    • 1 ≤ nums.length ≤ 300
    • nums[i] is 0, 1 or 2

    Submit checks your solution against 8 tests, including hidden ones.

    /**
     * @param {int[]} nums
     * @return {int[]}
     */
    function sortColors(nums) {
      
    }
