柱状图内最大的矩形面积 Largest Rectangle in Histogram @LeetCode

1 暴力法，TLE
2 很巧妙的用了两个stack，一个stack保存高度，另一个保存index
遍历height数组，
1 如果stack为空或者当前元素的高度大于height stack顶元素（前一个元素）的高度 => 把当前高度额index分别添加到两个stack顶
2 如果当前元素的高度等于height stack顶元素的高度 => 什么都不做
3 如果当前元素的高度小于height stack顶元素的高度 => 持续弹栈直到当前元素的高度大于栈顶元素，并每次都计算面积（height * （current index - popped index）），保存最大面积。最后把当前高度和最后一个弹出的index（非当前index） 重新压入栈中
4 处理完height数组，如果stack非空，则一一弹栈并计算面积。

/**
* Largest Rectangle in Histogram
*
Given n non-negative integers representing the histogram's bar height where the width of each bar is 1, find the area of largest rectangle in the histogram.
http://www.leetcode.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/04/histogram.png Above is a histogram where width of each bar is 1, given height = [2,1,5,6,2,3].
http://www.leetcode.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/04/histogram_area.png The largest rectangle is shown in the shaded area, which has area = 10 unit.

For example,
Given height = [2,1,5,6,2,3],
return 10.

栈：
关键两点：
1 栈里的元素总是上升的
2 在出栈时，如何找到出栈元素的前一个比它小的元素（s.peek()）和出栈元素的后一个比它小的元素（i）

import java.util.*;
public class Solution {
public static int largestRectangleArea(int[] height) {
Stack<Integer> s = new Stack<Integer>();
int maxArea = 0;
int top;
int areaWithTop;

int i = 0;
while(i < height.length) {
if(s.isEmpty() || height[s.peek()] <= height[i]) {  // maintain ascending order!
s.push(i);
i++;
} else {
top = s.pop();
// previous one which is smaller: i, next one which is smaller: s.peek()
areaWithTop = height[top] * (s.isEmpty() ? i : i-s.peek()-1);
maxArea = Math.max(maxArea, areaWithTop);
}
}

while(!s.isEmpty()) {
top = s.pop();
areaWithTop = height[top] * (s.isEmpty() ? i : i-s.peek()-1);
maxArea = Math.max(maxArea, areaWithTop);
}

return maxArea;
