花花酱 LeetCode 198. House Robber

Problem:

You are a professional robber planning to rob houses along a street. Each house has a certain amount of money stashed, the only constraint stopping you from robbing each of them is that adjacent houses have security system connected and it will automatically contact the police if two adjacent houses were broken into on the same night.

Given a list of non-negative integers representing the amount of money of each house, determine the maximum amount of money you can rob tonight without alerting the police.

花花酱 LeetCode 741. Cherry Pickup

题目大意:给你樱桃田的地图(1: 樱桃, 0: 空, -1: 障碍物)。然你从左上角走到右下角(只能往右或往下),再从右下角走回左上角(只能往左或者往上)。问你最多能采到多少棵樱桃。

Problem:

In a N x N grid representing a field of cherries, each cell is one of three possible integers.

  • 0 means the cell is empty, so you can pass through;
  • 1 means the cell contains a cherry, that you can pick up and pass through;
  • -1 means the cell contains a thorn that blocks your way.

Your task is to collect maximum number of cherries possible by following the rules below:

  • Starting at the position (0, 0) and reaching (N-1, N-1) by moving right or down through valid path cells (cells with value 0 or 1);
  • After reaching (N-1, N-1), returning to (0, 0) by moving left or up through valid path cells;
  • When passing through a path cell containing a cherry, you pick it up and the cell becomes an empty cell (0);
  • If there is no valid path between (0, 0) and (N-1, N-1), then no cherries can be collected.

Example 1:

Note:

  • grid is an N by N 2D array, with 1 <= N <= 50.
  • Each grid[i][j] is an integer in the set {-1, 0, 1}.
  • It is guaranteed that grid[0][0] and grid[N-1][N-1] are not -1.


Idea:

DP

Key observation: (0,0) to (n-1, n-1) to (0, 0) is the same as (n-1,n-1) to (0,0) twice

  1. Two people starting from (n-1, n-1) and go to (0, 0).
  2. They move one step (left or up) at a time simultaneously. And pick up the cherry within the grid (if there is one).
  3. if they ended up at the same grid with a cherry. Only one of them can pick up it.

Solution: DP / Recursion with memoization.

x1, y1, x2 to represent a state y2 can be computed: y2 = x1 + y1 – x2

dp(x1, y1, x2) computes the max cherries if start from {(x1, y1), (x2, y2)} to (0, 0), which is a recursive function.

Since two people move independently, there are 4 subproblems: (left, left), (left, up), (up, left), (left, up). Finally, we have:

dp(x1, y1, x2)= g[y1][x1] + g[y2][x2] + max{dp(x1-1,y1,x2-1), dp(x1,y1-1,x2-1), dp(x1-1,y1,x2), dp(x1,y1-1,x2)}

花花酱 LeetCode 64. Minimum Path Sum

Problem:

Given a m x n grid filled with non-negative numbers, find a path from top left to bottom right which minimizes the sum of all numbers along its path.

Note: You can only move either down or right at any point in time.

Example 1:

Given the above grid map, return 7. Because the path 1→3→1→1→1 minimizes the sum.

花花酱 LeetCode 312. Burst Balloons

Problem:

Given n balloons, indexed from 0 to n-1. Each balloon is painted with a number on it represented by array nums. You are asked to burst all the balloons. If the you burst balloon i you will get nums[left] * nums[i] * nums[right] coins. Here left and right are adjacent indices of i. After the burst, the left and rightthen becomes adjacent.

Find the maximum coins you can collect by bursting the balloons wisely.

Note:
(1) You may imagine nums[-1] = nums[n] = 1. They are not real therefore you can not burst them.
(2) 0 ≤ n ≤ 500, 0 ≤ nums[i] ≤ 100

Example:

Given [3, 1, 5, 8]

Return 167
