Aggressive cows(POJ-2456)

Problem 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).

Output

There are five cows at locations 1, 5, 3, 2, and 4.

Sample Input

5 3
1
5
3
2
4

Sample Output

3

题意:给出 n 个栏位以及其编号,现将 c 头牛放到栏位中,要求任意两头牛的栏位编号的最小差值最大。

思路:

一开始题的每个字都认识就是不知道要求什么,样例也看不明白,看了题解才稍微有些思路。

样例排序后,栏位编号是 1 2 4 8 9,那么 1 放一头牛,4 放一头牛,它们的差值为 3,最后一头牛放在 8 或 9 位置均可,和 4 的差值分别为 4、5,与 1 的差值分别为 7、8,均不比 3 小,所以最大的最小值为 3

现将栏位排序,则最大距离不会超过两端的两头牛之间的差值,最小值为0,可以通过二分枚举最小值来求。

假设当前的最小值为 x,如果最小差值为 x 时就可以放下 c 头牛,那么就让 x 变大再进行判断,如果放不下,说明当前 x 值太大,那么就让 x 变小再进行判断,直到求出一个最大的 x 值。
