Description
Some of Farmer John's N cows (1 ≤ N ≤ 80,000) are having a bad hair day! Since each cow is self-conscious about her messy hairstyle, FJ wants to count the number of other cows that can see the top of other cows' heads.
Each cow i has a specified height hi (1 ≤ hi ≤ 1,000,000,000) and is standing in a line of cows all facing east (to the right in our diagrams). Therefore, cow i can see the tops of the heads of cows in front of her (namely cows i+1, i+2, and so on), for as long as these cows are strictly shorter than cow i.
Consider this example:
=
= =
= - = Cows facing right -->
= = =
= - = = =
= = = = = =
1 2 3 4 5 6
Cow#1 can see the hairstyle of cows #2, 3, 4
Cow#2 can see no cow's hairstyle
Cow#3 can see the hairstyle of cow #4
Cow#4 can see no cow's hairstyle
Cow#5 can see the hairstyle of cow 6
Cow#6 can see no cows at all!
Let ci denote the number of cows whose hairstyle is visible from cow i; please compute the sum of c1 through cN.For this example, the desired is answer 3 + 0 + 1 + 0 + 1 + 0 = 5.
Input
Line 1: The number of cows, N.
Lines 2..N+1: Line i+1 contains a single integer that is the height of cow i.
Output
Line 1: A single integer that is the sum of c1 through cN.

题意就是牛都朝右,然后把每头牛往右可以看到的牛数加起来就得到结果。
题解:
如果单纯地把每头牛都往右看,看看有多少牛比他要矮,很容易超时。
所以我们可以想,能不能扫一遍记录下每头牛被可以被多少头牛看到,岂不是更简单。
这里我们用贡献的思想,用一个严格单减的单调栈,每一头牛把栈内比它矮的牛都除去,剩下的牛就是能看到它的。O(N)的复杂度即解决。
附上代码:
#include<cstdio>
#include<iostream>
#include<cstring>
#include<queue>
#include<stack>
using namespace std;
int main()
{
int n;
int a[80005];
long long ans = 0;
cin>>n;
stack<int> q;
while(!q.empty())
q.pop();//清空栈
for(int i = 1;i<= n;i++)
scanf("%d",&a[i]);
for(int i = 1;i<= n;i++)
{
while(!q.empty()&&a[i]>= q.top())
q.pop();//除去比这头牛矮的所有牛(即除去不符合条件的量)
ans+= q.size();//把能看到它的牛的数量加进结果
q.push(a[i]);
}
cout<<ans<<endl;
return 0;
}
