LeetCode 1051. Height Checker

考点	难度
Sorting	Easy

题目

A school is trying to take an annual photo of all the students. The students are asked to stand in a single file line in non-decreasing order by height. Let this ordering be represented by the integer array expected where expected[i] is the expected height of the ith student in line.

You are given an integer array heights representing the current order that the students are standing in. Each heights[i] is the height of the ith student in line (0-indexed).

Return the number of indices where heights[i] != expected[i].

思路

counting sort。用另外一个array存储每个height出现的次数，并且根据这个array决定下一个expected height是多少。如果和实际height不一样，result加一，expected height的个数减一。

答案

public int heightChecker(int[] heights) {
        int[] heightToFreq = new int[101];
        
        for (int height : heights) {
            heightToFreq[height]++;
        }
        
        int result = 0;
        int curHeight = 0;
        
        for (int i = 0; i < heights.length; i++) {
            while (heightToFreq[curHeight] == 0) {
                curHeight++;
            }
            
            if (curHeight != heights[i]) {
                result++;
            }
            heightToFreq[curHeight]--;
        }
        
        return result;
}
