Store an array b where b[i] is the sum of all aj = i
So in the sample, b would be {2, 10, 6}, the problem turns into a simple DP problem, if you are at state i you have 2 options:
1) leave b[i] and move to state i + 1
2) take b[i] and move to state i + R + 1
Giving WA:(
It will be wrong for test case 1 2 1 2 1 3
Sorry missed one more thing, you should set R = min(L, R)
because if you start taking elements in increasing order, then the difference between every consecutive values should be at least R
and if you start taking elements in decreasing order, then the difference between every two consecutive values should be at least L
The optimal solution is to choose the order which gives the minimum difference between consecutive values which is min(L, R)
code
Thanks:) Got it.
hey mate can u explain why it should be min(l,r) and not max(l,r)?? update :-> i got it,still thanks!!
It can be done with this way as well: do DP twice..from index 0 and going to right with distance R and from index 1e5 with distance L, then pick the maximum of the two values obtained.
