Moo Volume
Description
Farmer John has received a noise complaint from his neighbor, Farmer Bob, stating that his cows are making too much noise.
FJ's N cows (1 <= N <= 10,000) all graze at various locations on a long one-dimensional pasture. The cows are very chatty animals. Every pair of cows simultaneously carries on a conversation (so every cow is simultaneously MOOing at all of the N-1 other cows). When cow i MOOs at cow j, the volume of this MOO must be equal to the distance between i and j, in order for j to be able to hear the MOO at all. Please help FJ compute the total volume of sound being generated by all N*(N-1) simultaneous MOOing sessions.

Input
* Line 1: N
* Lines 2..N+1: The location of each cow (in the range 0..1,000,000,000).
* Lines 2..N+1: The location of each cow (in the range 0..1,000,000,000).
Output
There are five cows at locations 1, 5, 3, 2, and 4.
Sample Input
5
1 5 3 2 4
Sample Output
40
Hint
INPUT DETAILS:
There are five cows at locations 1, 5, 3, 2, and 4.
OUTPUT DETAILS:
Cow at 1 contributes 1+2+3+4=10, cow at 5 contributes 4+3+2+1=10, cow at 3 contributes 2+1+1+2=6, cow at 2 contributes 1+1+2+3=7, and cow at 4 contributes 3+2+1+1=7. The total volume is (10+10+6+7+7) = 40.
题意: 计算出sum = ∑(a[i] - a[j]);
解题思路:
1. 题目给10,000个点, O(n^2)的暴力方法不可取.
2. 只需要仔细观察,先排序,每项与其下一项的作用,(重复使用的次数).
问题分析:
假设现在数组排序后: — — ... — T— — — ... —
K个
n-1-K个
每项a[i+1] - a[i]项会用到的次数是 (n-1-K)*(K+1)*(a[i+1]-a[i]);
代码:
#include <cstdio>
#include <iostream>
#include <cstring>
#include <cstdlib>
using namespace std;
#define MAX 10005
int n;
long long a[MAX];
long long sum;
int cmp(const void *a,const void *b)
{
return (*(int*)a) - (*(int*)b);
}
int main()
{
//
freopen("input.txt","r",stdin);
while(scanf("%d",&n) != EOF)
{
for(int i = 0; i < n; ++i)
scanf("%lld",&a[i]);
qsort(a,n,sizeof(a[0]),cmp);
sum = 0;
for(int i = 0; i < n-1; ++i)
{
sum += (a[i+1]-a[i])*(n-i-1)*(i+1);
}
printf("%lld\n",sum*2);
}
return 0;
