LeetCode-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.

使用贪心策略，当hi<hj时i++ else时 j--

因为若hi<hj 则面积Area= hi*(hj-i) 若移动j则新面积Area'=min(hi,hj')(j'-i) Area'<Area故应i++

class Solution {
public:
int maxArea(vector<int> &height) {
// Start typing your C/C++ solution below
// DO NOT write int main() function
int i=0;
int j=height.size()-1;
int max=0;
while(i<j){
int area=min(height[i],height[j])*(j-i);
if(area>max)max=area;
if(height[i]<height[j])i++;
else j--;
}
return max;
}
};
