给定一个已排序的整数数组和一个值n,插入几个元素使得的可以组成的[1,n]中所有的数。求加入最小的数量元素完成该功能。
Given a sorted positive integer array nums and an integer n, add/patch elements to the array such that any number in range [1, n] inclusive can be formed by the sum of some elements in the array. Return the minimum number of patches required.
Example 1:
nums = [1, 3], n = 6
Return 1.
Combinations of nums are [1], [3], [1,3], which form possible sums of: 1, 3, 4.
Now if we add/patch 2 to nums, the combinations are: [1], [2], [3], [1,3], [2,3], [1,2,3].
Possible sums are 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, which now covers the range [1, 6].
So we only need 1 patch.
Example 2:
nums = [1, 5, 10], n = 20
Return 2.
The two patches can be [2, 4].
Example 3:
nums = [1, 2, 2], n = 5
Return 0.
python代码如下:
class Solution(object):
def minPatches(self, nums, n):
"""
:type nums: List[int]
:type n: int
:rtype: int
"""
_sum, ans, index = 0, 0, 0
while _sum < n:
while index < len(nums) and nums[index] <= _sum + 1:
_sum += nums[index]
index += 1
if _sum < n:
ans += 1
_sum = _sum * 2 + 1
return ans
