Given an array of 2n integers, your task is to group these integers into n pairs of integer, say (a1, b1), (a2, b2), ..., (an, bn) which makes sum of min(ai, bi) for all i from 1 to n as large as possible.
Example 1:
Input: [1,4,3,2] Output: 4 Explanation: n is 2, and the maximum sum of pairs is 4.
Note:
- n is a positive integer, which is in the range of [1, 10000].
- All the integers in the array will be in the range of [-10000, 10000].
这道题的大意是:
给定一个2n的数组[1,4,3,2],要求你去给它分成n组,就像这样[1,4],[3,2],目的是去取出每一个分组中的最小值,使的这些最小值求和之后的值尽可能的大!
举例:
如果我们按照group1=[1,4]、group2=[3,2]这种方法去分组,那么当我们去取每组中的最小值时,MIN(group1)=1、MIN(group2)=2,那么和应该为3;如果我们按照group1=[1,2],group2=[3,4],这时我们再去取每一组的最小值时,MIN(group1)=1、MIN(group2)=3,那么求和之后的值应该为4,所以这个题的答案应该为4。明白了题的含义,程序代码如下:
int arrayPairSum(int* nums, int numsSize) {
int tmp;
int i,j;
int sum=0;
//先按照从小到大排序
for(i=1;i<numsSize;i++){
tmp=nums[i];
for ( j=i; j>0;) {
if (tmp<nums[j-1]) {
nums[j]=nums[j-1];
j--;
}else{
break;
}
}
if(j==i){
continue;
}else{
nums[j]=tmp;
}
}
//排序后取出每一个组中的最小值然后求和即可
for (int k=0; k<numsSize; k+=2) {
sum+=nums[k];
}
return sum;
}
最基本的做法,未优化过的,所以时间复杂度比较高
