题目:Given n non-negative integers a1; a2; :::; an, where each represents a point at coordinate (i; ai). n vertical
lines are drawn such that the two endpoints of line i is at (i; ai) and (i; 0). Find two lines, which together
with x-axis forms a container, such that the container contains the most water.
Note: You may not slant the container.
每个容器的面积取决于最短的木板,解题代码如下:
// 时间复杂度 O(n),空间复杂度 O(1)
class Solution {
public:
int maxArea(vector<int>& height) {
int start = 0;
int end = height.size() - 1;
int result = INT_MIN;
while (start < end) {
int area = min(height[end], height[start]) * (end - start);
result = max(result, area);
if (height[start] <= height[end]) ++start;
else --end;
}
return result;
}
};
