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:
1.n is a positive integer, which is in the range of [1, 10000].
2.All the integers in the array will be in the range of [-10000, 10000].
class Solution:
def arrayPairSum(self, nums):
"""
:type nums: List[int]
:rtype: int
"""
res = 0
nums.sort()
for idx, ele in enumerate(nums):
if idx%2 == 0:
res += nums[idx]
return res
