1326. Minimum Number of Taps to Open to Water a Garden

Posted 2021-03-14 wentiliangkaihua

There is a one-dimensional garden on the x-axis. The garden starts at the point 0 and ends at the point n. (i.e The length of the garden is n).

There are n + 1 taps located at points [0, 1, ..., n] in the garden.

Given an integer n and an integer array ranges of length n + 1 where ranges[i] (0-indexed) means the i-th tap can water the area [i - ranges[i], i + ranges[i]] if it was open.

Return the minimum number of taps that should be open to water the whole garden, If the garden cannot be watered return -1.

 

Example 1:

Input: n = 5, ranges = [3,4,1,1,0,0]
Output: 1
Explanation: The tap at point 0 can cover the interval [-3,3]
The tap at point 1 can cover the interval [-3,5]
The tap at point 2 can cover the interval [1,3]
The tap at point 3 can cover the interval [2,4]
The tap at point 4 can cover the interval [4,4]
The tap at point 5 can cover the interval [5,5]
Opening Only the second tap will water the whole garden [0,5]

Example 2:

Input: n = 3, ranges = [0,0,0,0]
Output: -1
Explanation: Even if you activate all the four taps you cannot water the whole garden.

Example 3:

Input: n = 7, ranges = [1,2,1,0,2,1,0,1]
Output: 3

Example 4:

Input: n = 8, ranges = [4,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,4]
Output: 2

Example 5:

Input: n = 8, ranges = [4,0,0,0,4,0,0,0,4]
Output: 1

 

Constraints:

• 1 <= n <= 10^4
• ranges.length == n + 1
• 0 <= ranges[i] <= 100

class Solution {
    public int minTaps(int n, int[] ranges) {
        int l = n + 1;
        int[][] arr = new int[l][2];
        for(int i = 0; i < l; i++){
            arr[i][0] = i - ranges[i];
            arr[i][1] = i + ranges[i];
        }
        Arrays.sort(arr, (a, b)-> a[0] - b[0]);
        int res = videoStitching(arr, n);
        return res;
    }
        public int videoStitching(int[][] clips, int T) {
        int res = 0;
        for(int i = 0, st = 0, end = 0; st < T; res++, st = end){
            for(; i < clips.length && clips[i][0] <= st; i++){
                end = Math.max(end, clips[i][1]);
            }
            if(st == end) return -1;
        }
        return res;
    }
}
