**【题目】
Design a stack that supports push, pop, top, and retrieving the minimum element in constant time.
push(x) – Push element x onto stack.
pop() – Removes the element on top of the stack.
top() – Get the top element.
getMin() – Retrieve the minimum element in the stack.
Example:
MinStack minStack = new MinStack();
minStack.push(-2);
minStack.push(0);
minStack.push(-3);
minStack.getMin(); –> Returns -3.
minStack.pop();
minStack.top(); –> Returns 0.
minStack.getMin(); –> Returns -2.**
【分析】
题意为设计一个栈,且是”最小”栈,其中的getMin方法返回栈中的最小值。
思路是声明一个主栈和一个辅助栈,这个栈的栈顶保存的是入主栈的元素的最小值,这样getMin方法返回的始终是当前所有元素的最小值,时间复杂度为O(1).
Java实现:
public class MinStack {
Stack<Integer> s,minS;
/** initialize your data structure here. */
public MinStack() {
s= new Stack<>();
minS = new Stack<>();
}
public void push(int x) {
s.push(x);
if(!minS.isEmpty() && minS.peek()<x) return ;
minS.push(x);
}
public void pop() {
int m = s.pop();
if(m==minS.peek()) minS.pop();
}
public int top() {
return s.peek();
}
public int getMin() {
return minS.peek();
}
}
