Shrinking Frame Distinct Triplets
Problem Description
Given a sorted array of integers `sortedVals`, find all unique triplets `(a, b, c)` such that `a + b + c = 0`.
The solution set must not contain duplicate triplets. Each triplet should be returned in non-decreasing order, and the list of triplets may be in any order.
**Example 1:**
```
Input: sortedVals = [-4, -2, -1, 0, 1, 2, 3, 5]
Output: [[-4, -1, 5], [-4, 1, 3], [-4, 2, 2], [-2, -1, 3], [-2, 0, 2], [-1, 0, 1]]
```
**Example 2:**
```
Input: sortedVals = [-3, -3, 0, 3, 3]
Output: [[-3, 0, 3]]
Explanation: Duplicate triplets are excluded.
```
Constraints
- 3 <= sortedVals.length <= 3000
- -10^5 <= sortedVals[i] <= 10^5
- sortedVals is sorted in non-decreasing order
Follow-up
Can you solve the four-sum variant (find all unique quadruplets summing to a given target) with O(n³) time?
