题目:
Say you have an array for which the ith element is the price of a given stock on day i.
If you were only permitted to complete at most one transaction (ie, buy one and sell one share of the stock), design an algorithm to find the maximum profit.
Example 1:
Input: [7, 1, 5, 3, 6, 4]
Output: 5
max. difference = 6-1 = 5 (not 7-1 = 6, as selling price needs to be larger than buying price)
Example 2:
Input: [7, 6, 4, 3, 1]
Output: 0
In this case, no transaction is done, i.e. max profit = 0.

滴滴牛客网视频面试的时候正好让写这道题,可惜我当时没刷LeetCode,先写了个暴力,然后又写了一个dp的,还好最后面试官还算满意~
设
d[i]
为到第
i
天为止的最大利润,
d[i]={0,prices[i]−min,prices[i]<prices[i−1]且prices[i]<min;otherwise;
C++代码如下:
class Solution {
public:
int maxProfit(vector<int>& prices) {
int max = 0, index = 0, len = prices.size();
if(len == 0)
return 0;
vector<int> d(len,0);
d[0] = 0;
for(int i=1;i<len;i++)
{
if(prices[i]<prices[i-1] && prices[i] < prices[index])
{
index = i;
d[i] = 0;
}
else
{
d[i] = prices[i] - prices[index];
}
}
for(int i=0;i<len;i++)
{
if(d[i]>max)
max = d[i];
}
return max;
}
};
