[leetcode] Container With Most Water

标签：class   blog   code   java   http   tar   

Given n non-negative integers a₁, a₂, ..., a_n, where each represents a point at coordinate (i, a_i). n vertical lines are drawn such that the two endpoints of line i is at (i, a_i) 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.

思路1：O(n^2)复杂穷举所有的情况，too young too simple.

思路2：:两个指针i,j分别指向首位，选择二者中小的向中间移动，同时更新最大值。这个想法的基础是，如果i的长度小于j，如果移动j，短板在i，不可能找到比当前记录的area更大的值了，只能通过移动i来找到新的可能的更大面积。

public class Solution {
    public int maxArea(int[] height) {
        int n = height.length;
        int maxA = 0;
        int curA = 0;
        int i = 0, j = n - 1;
        while (i < j) {
            if (height[i] <= height[j]) {
                curA = Math.abs(j - i) * height[i];
                if (curA > maxA)
                    maxA = curA;
                i++;
            } else {
                curA = Math.abs(j - i) * height[j];
                if (curA > maxA)
                    maxA = curA;
                j--;
            }
        }

        return maxA;
    }

    public static void main(String[] args) {
        System.out.println(new Solution().maxArea(new int[] { 2, 2, 2 }));
        System.out.println(new Solution().maxArea(new int[] { 1, 2, 3 }));
        System.out.println(new Solution().maxArea(new int[] { 2, 3, 3 }));

    }

}
