Description
FJ is about to take his N (1 ≤ N ≤ 2,000) cows to the annual"Farmer of the Year" competition. In this contest every farmer arranges his cows in a line and herds them past the judges.
The contest organizers adopted a new registration scheme this year: simply register the initial letter of every cow in the order they will appear (i.e., If FJ takes Bessie, Sylvia, and Dora in that order he just registers BSD). After the registration phase ends, every group is judged in increasing lexicographic order according to the string of the initials of the cows' names.
FJ is very busy this year and has to hurry back to his farm, so he wants to be judged as early as possible. He decides to rearrange his cows, who have already lined up, before registering them.
FJ marks a location for a new line of the competing cows. He then proceeds to marshal the cows from the old line to the new one by repeatedly sending either the first or last cow in the (remainder of the) original line to the end of the new line. When he's finished, FJ takes his cows for registration in this new order.
Given the initial order of his cows, determine the least lexicographic string of initials he can make this way.
Input
* Line 1: A single integer: N
* Lines 2..N+1: Line i+1 contains a single initial ('A'..'Z') of the cow in the ith position in the original line
Output
The least lexicographic string he can make. Every line (except perhaps the last one) contains the initials of 80 cows ('A'..'Z') in the new line.
Sample Input
6 A C D B C B
Sample Output
ABCBCD
贪心思想:
不断从数组的开头和末尾中较小的一个字符输出;
这样的话忘记了讨论 若开头和末尾相同时的情况,所以,进一步优化的算法如下:
按照字典序比较a数组和a数组反转后的字符串a';
如果a较小,就从a的开头取出一个字符,输出;
如果a'较小,就从a的末尾取出一个字符输出;
