HackRank Cut the sticks

原题网址:https://www.hackerrank.com/challenges/cut-the-sticks

You are given  sticks, where the length of each stick is a positive integer. A cut operation is performed on the sticks such that all of them are reduced by the length of the smallest stick.

Suppose we have six sticks of the following lengths:
5 4 4 2 2 8

Then, in one cut operation we make a cut of length 2 from each of the six sticks. For the next cut operation four sticks are left (of non-zero length), whose lengths are the following: 
3 2 2 6

The above step is repeated until no sticks are left.

Given the length of  sticks, print the number of sticks that are left before each subsequent cut operations.

Note: For each cut operation, you have to recalcuate the length of smallest sticks (excluding zero-length sticks).

Input Format 
The first line contains a single integer 
The next line contains  integers: a0, a1,...aN-1 separated by space, where ai represents the length of ith stick.

Output Format 
For each operation, print the number of sticks that are cut, on separate lines.

Constraints 
1 ≤ N ≤ 1000 
1 ≤ ai ≤ 1000

Explanation

Sample Case #00 :

sticks-length        length-of-cut   sticks-cut
5 4 4 2 2 8             2               6
3 2 2 _ _ 6             2               4
1 _ _ _ _ 4             1               2
_ _ _ _ _ 3             3               1
_ _ _ _ _ _           DONE            DONE

Sample Case #01

sticks-length         length-of-cut   sticks-cut
1 2 3 4 3 3 2 1         1               8
_ 1 2 3 2 2 1 _         1               6
_ _ 1 2 1 1 _ _         1               4
_ _ _ 1 _ _ _ _         1               1
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _       DONE            DONE

方法:使用最小堆。

import java.io.*;
import java.util.*;

public class Solution {

    public static void main(String[] args) {
        /* Enter your code here. Read input from STDIN. Print output to STDOUT. Your class should be named Solution. */
        Scanner scanner = new Scanner(System.in);
        int n = scanner.nextInt();
        PriorityQueue<Integer> heap = new PriorityQueue<>(n);
        for(int i = 0; i < n; i++) {
            heap.offer(scanner.nextInt());
        }
        while (!heap.isEmpty()) {
            System.out.println(heap.size());
            int min = heap.poll();
            while (!heap.isEmpty() && min == heap.peek()) {
                heap.poll();
            }
        }
    }
}
