巧克力分销问题|套装2

给定一个由N个整数组成的数组A [] ，其中每个值代表第i^个学生的分数，任务是找到需要分配的最小巧克力数量，使得：

• 每个学生应获得至少一种巧克力
• 分数较高的学生应比相邻的学生获得更多的巧克力。

例子：

Input: A[] = {10, 30, 20}
Output: 4
Explanation : Since, 30 is larger than its adjacent, so the second student must get more chocolates. Therefore, the minimum chocolates can be distributed as {1, 2, 1} = 1 + 2 + 1 = 4

Input: A[] = {23, 14, 15, 14, 56, 29, 14}
Output: 12
 

方法1：

方法：可以使用贪婪方法解决问题。请按照以下步骤解决问题：

• 用1初始化长度N的数组B [] 。
• 从i = 1到N – 1从左到右遍历，如果A [i]大于A [i-1]，则将B [i]更新为B [i] = B [i-1] +1 。
• 完成上述步骤后，从i = N – 2到0再次从右向左遍历，如果A为A，则将B [i]更新为B [i] = max(B [i]，B [i + 1] +1) [i]大于A [i + 1] 。否则，将B [i]更新为B [i] = max(B [i]，1) 。
• 遍历后，计算数组B []的总和，并将其打印为所需的最小糖果数。

下面是上述方法的实现：

C++

// C++ program for the above approach
 
#include 
using namespace std;
 
// FUnction to print minimum number
// of candies required
void minChocolates(int A[], int N)
{
    int B[N];
 
    // Distribute 1 chocolate to each
    for (int i = 0; i < N; i++) {
        B[i] = 1;
    }
 
    // Traverse from left to right
    for (int i = 1; i < N; i++) {
        if (A[i] > A[i - 1])
            B[i] = B[i - 1] + 1;
        else
            B[i] = 1;
    }
 
    // Traverse from right to left
    for (int i = N - 2; i >= 0; i--) {
        if (A[i] > A[i + 1])
            B[i] = max(B[i + 1] + 1, B[i]);
        else
            B[i] = max(B[i], 1);
    }
 
    // Initialize sum
    int sum = 0;
 
    // Find total sum
    for (int i = 0; i < N; i++) {
        sum += B[i];
    }
 
    // Return sum
    cout << sum << "\n";
}
 
// Driver Code
int main()
{
 
    // Given array
    int A[] = { 23, 14, 15, 14, 56, 29, 14 };

    minChocolates(A, N);
}

输出：

12

时间复杂度： O(N)，其中N是给定数组的长度。
辅助空间： O(N)

方法2：高效的方法

仔细观察，可以将空间复杂度降低为O(1)。

一，观察：

• 标记数组将是严格增加，严格减少或平坦(值与两个邻居相同)子数组的组合。
• 为了最大程度地减少分发的巧克力总量，一个人和至少一个邻居接收到的巧克力数量应相差1或更小。

**下面提到第二次观察的一个例外

二。分发巧克力

情况1：子数组严格增加

如果该值严格增加，则给^第i^个巧克力的数量 学生将一个以上给巧克力的数(i-1)^个学生(对于任何i> 0)

一种巧克力将被分配给子数组中最左边的人，另一种巧克力被赋予子数组，依此类推，直到得分最高的人。

对于长度为k的严格增加的子数组，巧克力分布将为[1、2，…，k]。

情况2：子数组严格减少

给^第i^个学生的巧克力数量将比给第(i + 1)^个学生的巧克力数量多(对于任何i

对于长度为k的严格递减子数组，巧克力分布将为[k，k-1，…，1]。

情况3：平序

鉴于得分最高的学生将获得比邻居更多的巧克力数量。因此，如果值相等，则没有依赖关系。最小值将被分配以获得最佳结果。

如果两个相邻的值都等于a [i]，即位置a [i-1] == a [i] == a [i + 1]，则在位置i处将给人一个巧克力

对于长度为k的平面子数组，巧克力分布将为[1，1，…，1]。

**如果在平面序列中只有一个元素，并且恰好位于递增和递减序列之间，则与两个邻居的赋值之差可能大于1。

过渡点：子阵列的趋势(增加/减少/平坦的特性)发生变化的点。

• 峰值点：是一个递增序列的终点和另一个递减序列的起点的点

那么分配的值将是max(k1，k2)

其中k1 –从递增序列获得的值，

k2 –从递减序列获得的值。

该点仅被视为增加或减少序列的一部分

三，结果 ：

 由于增/减序列中的值相差1，因此在特定的k个元素子数组中分配给学生的巧克力数量将是k个自然数的总和。对于平坦序列，由于所有值均为1，因此计数将为k。所需值将是子数组结果的总和。

IV。执行：

考虑最初指向第一个元素的变量i，j val = 1，res = 0。

遍历数组后， res给出分配的巧克力总数。

val，而迭代索引j (在递增/平坦子数组中)表示j处的人收到的巧克力数量

如果子数组增加或序列平坦，则将val添加到res； i，j向前移动，并根据下一个值(a [j + 1])更新val 。

如果子数组正在减少，则将i指向子数组的起点，并将j向前移动直到下一个过渡点。 val，直到子数组末尾才更新res 。在这种情况下， val保留从先前的子数组获得的峰值元素的值。在递减序列结束时，使用get_sum函数更新res，并更新val以指向下一个人持有的巧克力数量。

五，例子：

Input: A[ ] = {1, 2, 10, 7, 6, 4, 5, 5, 5, 6}

Output : 19

Explanation:

subarray — sequence type    —  count of chocolates

A[0-1] — increasing sequence — [1, 2]

A[2-5] — decreasing sequence — [4, 3, 2, 1]

A[5-6] — increasing sequence — [1, 2]

A[7-7] — flat sequence       — [1]

A[8-9] — increasing sequence — [1, 2]

A[2], A[9] are peak points

Chocolates distribution will be 

[1, 2, 4, 3, 2, 1, 2, 1, 1, 2]

Sum of all values = 19
