• LeetCode: Container With Most Water 解题报告


    Container With Most Water
    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.

    SOLUTION 1:

    采用2个指针一个在左一个在右,计算『桶』可以容纳的水。如果左边低,则左指针右移(试图看可不可以找到更高的bar),反之左移右指针 

    证明:

    当H[l] < H[r]的时候,为什么可以移动左指针呢?

    因为以l为边界的最大值我们已经计算出来了,它是一个短板,把r往左移不可能得到更大的蓄水量。所以以l为边界的可以结束计算了。直接把l右移即可。

    引自http://www.cnblogs.com/TenosDoIt/p/3812880.html 的证明:

    正确性证明:由于水的容量是有较小的那个边界决定的,因此某次迭代中,假设height[i] < height[j],那么j 减小肯定不会使水的容量增大,只有i 增加才有可能使水的容量增大。但是会不会有这种可能:当前的i 和 某个k (k > j)是最大容量, 这也是不可能的,因为按照我们的移动规则,既然右指针从k 移动到了j,说明i 的左边一定存在一个边界 m,使m > k,那么[m, k]的容量肯定大于[i, k],所以[i,k]不可能是最大容量。可以参考here
