Design a stack that supports push, pop, top, and retrieving the minimum element in constant time.
- push(x) -- Push element x onto stack.
- pop() -- Removes the element on top of the stack.
- top() -- Get the top element.
- getMin() -- Retrieve the minimum element in the stack.
Example:
MinStack minStack = new MinStack(); minStack.push(-2); minStack.push(0); minStack.push(-3); minStack.getMin(); --> Returns -3. minStack.pop(); minStack.top(); --> Returns 0. minStack.getMin(); --> Returns -2.
存一个instance variable表示到目前为止的最小值
stack里存的是:
如果当前值大于之前的最小值,存当前值-最小值(正数)
如果当前值小于之前的最小值,则这个值变成新的最小值,存当前值-最小值(负数)并更新最小值
pop: pop出栈顶元素cur, 如果cur < 0,说明当前pop出的值是当前最小值,出栈后把最小值更新为min - cur; 如果cur > 0, 说明当前值大于当前最小值,应该是cur + pop
top: 栈顶元素cur = stack.peek(), 如果cur < 0, 说明当前值是最小值,返回min,如果cur> 0, 说明当前值大于最小值,实际为cur + min
public class MinStack {
Stack<Long> stack;
int min;
/** initialize your data structure here. */
public MinStack() {
stack = new Stack<Long>();
min = 0;
}
public void push(int x) {
if (stack.isEmpty()) {
min = x;
stack.push(0L);
return;
}
stack.push((long)x - min);
if (x < min) {
min = x;
}
}
public void pop() {
long cur = stack.pop();
if (cur < 0) {
min = (int)(min - cur);
}
}
public int top() {
if (stack.peek() < 0L) {
return min;
} else {
return (int)(min + stack.peek());
}
}
public int getMin() {
return min;
}
}
/**
* Your MinStack object will be instantiated and called as such:
* MinStack obj = new MinStack();
* obj.push(x);
* obj.pop();
* int param_3 = obj.top();
* int param_4 = obj.getMin();
*/
另一种办法
分析:保存到目前为止的最小值。当出栈导致更新最小值时,如果记录了之前的最小值信息,就能更新到pop出当前元素后的最小值。
public class MinStack {
Stack<Integer> stack;
int min;
/** initialize your data structure here. */
public MinStack() {
stack = new Stack<Integer>();
min = Integer.MAX_VALUE;
}
public void push(int x) {
if (x <= min) { //这里要用<=。如果x == min,x也会被判断为新的最小值,在pop时连pop两次,因此此时也要push两次
stack.push(min);
min = x;
}
stack.push(x);
}
public void pop() {
int cur = stack.pop();
if (cur == min) {
min = stack.pop();
}
}
public int top() {
return stack.peek();
}
public int getMin() {
return min;
}
}
/**
* Your MinStack object will be instantiated and called as such:
* MinStack obj = new MinStack();
* obj.push(x);
* obj.pop();
* int param_3 = obj.top();
* int param_4 = obj.getMin();
