PAT甲级(Advanced Level)练习题 Median (25)

题目描述

Given an increasing sequence S of N integers, the median is the number at the middle position. For example, the median of S1={11, 12, 13, 14} is 12, and the median of S2={9, 10, 15, 16, 17} is 15. The median of two sequences is defined to be the median of the nondecreasing sequence which contains all the elements of both sequences. For example, the median of S1 and S2 is 13.
Given two increasing sequences of integers, you are asked to find their median.

输入描述:

Each input file contains one test case. Each case occupies 2 lines, each gives the information of a sequence. For each sequence, the first positive integer N (<=1000000) is the size of that sequence. Then N integers follow, separated by a space. It is guaranteed that all the integers are in the range of long int.

输出描述:

For each test case you should output the median of the two given sequences in a line.

输入例子:

4 11 12 13 14
5 9 10 15 16 17

输出例子:

13

题目分析及实现

本题是要找到数组中的中位数，题目的设置难点是给了两个数组，要把两个数组合并。我们只需要顺序合并数组，最后使用algorithm库中的sort函数对数组进行排序，正确输出结果即可。

代码实现（C++版本）

#include <iostream>
#include <algorithm>
using namespace std;

int main()
{
    int a,b;
    cin >>a;
    int arrayA[a];
    for(int i =0;i<a;i++){
        cin >> arrayA[i];
    }
    cin >> b;
    int arrayB[b];
    for(int i =0;i<b;i++){
        cin >> arrayB[i];
    }
    int n = a+b;
    int arrayN[n];
    for(int i = 0;i<n;i++){
        if(i < a)
            arrayN[i] = arrayA[i];
        else{
            arrayN[i] = arrayB[i-a];
        }
    }
    sort(arrayN,arrayN+n);
    if(n%2==1){
        cout<<arrayN[n/2]<<endl;
    }else{
        cout<<arrayN[n/2 - 1] <<endl;
    }
    return 0;
}
