Description
FJ is surveying his herd to find the most average cow. He wants to know how much milk this ‘median’ cow gives: half of the cows give as much or more than the median; half give as much or less.
Given an odd number of cows N (1 <= N < 10,000) and their milk output (1…1,000,000), find the median amount of milk given such that at least half the cows give the same amount of milk or more and at least half give the same or less.
Input
-
Line 1: A single integer N
-
Lines 2…N+1: Each line contains a single integer that is the milk output of one cow.
Output -
Line 1: A single integer that is the median milk output.

题意
给定一个奇数N,接下来有N个整数,求这N个整数的中位数。
分析
本题非常简单,可以直接用STL里的sort解决。也可以当作快速排序算法的简单练习题。下面采用快速排序来解决。
代码
#include<iostream>
#include<algorithm>
#include<cmath>
#include<cstdio>
using namespace std;
const int MAXN = 10010;
int data[MAXN];
int partition(int left,int right)
{
int i=left;
int temp=data[right];//把尾部的数看成基准数
for(int j=left;j<right;j++){
if(data[j]<temp){
swap(data[j],data[i]);
i++;
}
}
swap(data[i],data[right]);
return i;//返回基准数的位置
}
void quicksort(int left,int right)
{
if(left<right){
int i=partition(left,right);//划分
quicksort(left,i-1);//分治,i左边的继续递归划分
quicksort(i+1,right);//分治,i右边的继续递归划分
}
}
int main()
{
int n;
scanf("%d",&n);
for(int i=1;i<=n;i++) scanf("%d",&data[i]);
quicksort(1,n);
printf("%d\n",data[(n+1)/2]);
return 0;
}
