Given an array of 2n integers, your task is to group these integers into n pairs of integer, say (a1, b1), (a2, b2), ..., (an, bn) which makes sum of min(ai, bi) for all i from 1 to n as large as possible.
Example 1:
Input: [1,4,3,2] Output: 4 Explanation: n is 2, and the maximum sum of pairs is 4 = min(1, 2) + min(3, 4).
Note:
- n is a positive integer, which is in the range of [1, 10000].
- All the integers in the array will be in the range of [-10000, 10000].
題目標簽:Array
這道題目給了我們一個數組有2n integers, 需要我們把這個數組分成n對,然后從每一對里面拿小的那個數字,把所有的加起來,返回這個sum。並且要使這個sum 盡量最大。如何讓sum 最大化呢,我們想一下,如果是兩個數字,一個很小,一個很大,這樣的話,取一個小的數字,就浪費了那個大的數字。所以我們要使每一對的兩個數字盡可能接近。我們先把nums sort 一下,讓它從小到大排列,接着每次把index: 0, 2, 4...偶數位的數字加起來就可以了。
