Given a triangle, find the minimum path sum from top to bottom. Each step you may move to adjacent numbers on the row below.
For example, given the following triangle
[ [2], [3,4], [6,5,7], [4,1,8,3] ]
The minimum path sum from top to bottom is 11
(i.e., 2 + 3 + 5 + 1 = 11).
Note:
Bonus point if you are able to do this using only O(n) extra space, where n is the total number of rows in the triangle.
class Solution {
public:
int minimumTotal(vector<vector<int> > &triangle) {
vector<int> sums(triangle.size(), 0);
if(sums.size() == 0) return 0;
for(int ii = 0; ii < triangle.size(); ii ++) {
vector<int> current = triangle[ii];
vector<int> tempsums = sums;
for(int jj = 0; jj < current.size(); jj ++) {
if(jj == 0) {
tempsums[jj] = sums[jj] + current[jj];
}
else if(jj == current.size() - 1) {
tempsums[jj] = current[jj] + sums[jj - 1];
}
else {
tempsums[jj] = current[jj] + min(sums[jj] , sums[jj - 1]);
}
}
sums = tempsums;
}
int min = 0x7fffffff;
for(int ii = 0; ii < sums.size(); ii ++) {
if(min > sums[ii]) {
min = sums[ii];
}
}
return min;
}
};
