Given an array of 2n integers, your task is to group these integers into n pairs of integer, say (a1, b1), (a2, b2), …, (an, bn) which makes sum of min(ai, bi) for all i from 1 to n as large as possible.
Example 1:
Input: [1,4,3,2]
Output: 4
Explanation: n is 2, and the maximum sum of pairs is 4 = min(1, 2) + min(3, 4).
Note:
n is a positive integer, which is in the range of [1, 10000].
All the integers in the array will be in the range of [-10000, 10000].
很容易想到如果先排序的话,结果是很容易求得的。
/* quick sort,chose the first element be the pivot */
int findPivot(int *nums,int low,int high)
{
int tmp = nums[low];
while(low<high)
{
while(low<high && nums[high]>=tmp)
high--;
nums[low] = nums[high];
while(low<high && nums[low]<=tmp)
low++;
nums[high] = nums[low];
}
nums[low] = tmp;
return low;
}
void quickSort(int *nums,int low,int high)
{
if(low<high)
{
int pos = findPivot(nums,low,high);
quickSort(nums,low,pos-1);
quickSort(nums,pos+1,high);
}
}
int arrayPairSum(int* nums, int numsSize) {
if(numsSize<3)return nums[0]<nums[1]?nums[0]:nums[1];
quickSort(nums,0,numsSize-1);
int i=0,sum=0;
for(;i<numsSize;i+=2)
{
sum+=nums[i];
}
return sum;
}
但是题目中是给了所有数值的范围的,这种情况下可以考虑桶排序(bucket sort),可以实现O(N)时间复杂度。
int arrayPairSum(int* nums, int numsSize) {
int bucket[20001] = {0};
for(int i=0;i<numsSize;i++)
bucket[nums[i]+10000]++;
int sum=0,flag=1;
for(int i=0;i<20001;)
{
if(flag==1&&bucket[i])
{
sum+=i-10000;
flag=0;
bucket[i]--;//处理好有重复值的情况 如case [1,2,3,2]
}
else if(flag==0&&bucket[i])
{
flag=1;
bucket[i]--;//处理好有重复值的情况
}
else
i++;
}
return sum;
}
C语言刷题实在是麻烦。。。
