There are a row of n houses, each house can be painted with one of the k colors. The cost of painting each house with a certain color is different. You have to paint all the houses such that no two adjacent houses have the same color.
The cost of painting each house with a certain color is represented by a n x k
cost matrix. For example,costs[0][0]
is the cost of painting house 0 with color 0; costs[1][2]
is the cost of painting house 1 with color 2, and so on... Find the minimum cost to paint all houses.
Note:
All costs are positive integers.

Could you solve it in O(nk) runtime?
用两个数组分别存储索引j之前的最小值和索引j之后的最小值,这样只需求min(arr1[j],arr2[j])即为粉刷当前房子所需的最小花费,代码:
public int minCostII(int[][] costs) { if(costs.length==0||costs[0].length==0) return 0; int[] min1=new int[costs[0].length]; int[] min2=new int[costs[0].length]; int len=costs[0].length; for(int i=1;i<costs.length;i++){ min1[0]=Integer.MAX_VALUE; for(int j=1;j<len;j++){ min1[j]=Math.min(min1[j-1],costs[i-1][j-1]); } min2[len-1]=Integer.MAX_VALUE; for(int j=len-2;j>=0;j--){ min2[j]=Math.min(min2[j+1],costs[i-1][j+1]); } for(int j=0;j<len;j++){ costs[i][j]+=Math.min(min1[j],min2[j]); } } int res=Integer.MAX_VALUE; for(int j=0;j<len;j++){ res=Math.min(res,costs[costs.length-1][j]); } return res; }
