Problem :
Given an array of citations (each citation is a non-negative integer) of a researcher, write a function to compute the researcher's h-index.
According to the definition of h-index on Wikipedia: "A scientist has index h if h of his/her N papers have at least h citations each, and the other N − h papers have no more than h citations each."
For example, given citations = [3, 0, 6, 1, 5]
, which means the researcher has 5
papers in total and each of them had received 3, 0, 6, 1, 5
citations respectively. Since the researcher has 3
papers with at least 3
citations each and the remaining two with no more than 3
citations each, his h-index is 3
.
Note: If there are several possible values for h
, the maximum one is taken as the h-index.
思路:对数组按照从小到大重新排序,对倒数第N个元素,若citations[N] >= N,则至少N符合 N-Index,继续考虑N + 1的情况。重复以上操作直至citations[N] < N,此时表明N 不符合 N-Index,则可判断最大的符合 H-Index 的值为 N - 1。值得注意的是,若从未发表论文,即citations数组为空,则返回值为0。
代码如下:
#include<iostream>
#include<vector>
#include<algorithm>
using namespace std;
class Solution {
public:
int hIndex(vector<int>& citations) {
if(citations.size() == 0)
return 0;
sort(citations.begin(), citations.end());
int paper_num = 1;
while(paper_num <= citations[citations.size() - paper_num])
{
paper_num ++;
}
return paper_num - 1;
}
};
int main()
{
vector<int> citations;
citations.push_back(3);
citations.push_back(0);
citations.push_back(6);
citations.push_back(1);
citations.push_back(5);
Solution text;
cout << text.hIndex(citations) << endl;
return 0;
}
