To play the game, each cow in turn starts at the starting rock and tries to reach the finish at the ending rock, jumping only from rock to rock. Of course, less agile cows never make it to the final rock, ending up instead in the river.
Farmer John is proud of his cows and watches this event each year. But as time goes by, he tires of watching the timid cows of the other farmers limp across the short distances between rocks placed too closely together. He plans to remove several rocks in order to increase the shortest distance a cow will have to jump to reach the end. He knows he cannot remove the starting and ending rocks, but he calculates that he has enough resources to remove up to M rocks (0 ≤ M ≤ N).
FJ wants to know exactly how much he can increase the shortest distance *before* he starts removing the rocks. Help Farmer John determine the greatest possible shortest distance a cow has to jump after removing the optimal set of M rocks.
Input
* Line 1: Three space-separated integers: L, N, and M* Lines 2..N + 1: Each line contains a single integer indicating how far some rock is away from the starting rock. No two rocks share the same position.
Output
* Line 1: A single integer that is the maximum of the shortest distance a cow has to jump after removing M rocksSample Input
25 5 2 2 14 11 21 17
Sample Output
4
Input Details
5 rocks at distances 2, 11, 14, 17, and 21. Starting rock at position 0, finishing rock at position 25.Output Details
Before removing any rocks, the shortest jump was a jump of 2 from 0 (the start) to 2. After removing the rocks at 2 and 14, the shortest required jump is a jump of 4 (from 17 to 21 or from 21 to 25).Source: USACO 2006 December Competition
挺好的一道二分的题目,做完这道题对二分的理解上了一个台阶,思路是采用二分,以中间值为基准去找需要满足这个值最少去除的rock数,如果这个rock数比题目中的M大,则说明中值取得太大,反之取得太小,因此并不是直接岁数组的二分,挺不错的一道题。
