Problem Description
A conveyor belt has packages that must be shipped from one port to another within B days.
The ith package on the conveyor belt has a weight of A[i]. Each day, we load the ship with packages on the conveyor belt (in the order given by weights). We may not load more weight than the maximum weight capacity of the ship.
Print the least weight capacity of the ship that will result in all the packages on the conveyor belt being shipped within B days.
Problem Constraints 1 <= B <= |A| <= 5 * 10^5 1 <= A[i] <= 10^5
Input Format
The first line contains an integer n — the length of array A.
The second line contains n integers A1,A2,…,An — elements of array A.
The third line contains the integer B denoting the number of days.
Output Format
Print the least weight capacity of the ship.
Example Input Input 1: 10 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 5 Input 2: 6 3 2 2 4 1 4 3
Example Output Ouput 1: 15
Ouput 2: 6
Example Explanation Explanation 1: A ship capacity of 15 is the minimum to ship all the packages in 5 days like this: 1st day: 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 2nd day: 6, 7 3rd day: 8 4th day: 9 5th day: 10 Note that the cargo must be shipped in the order given, so using a ship of capacity 14 and splitting the packages into parts like (2, 3, 4, 5), (1, 6, 7), (8), (9), (10) is not allowed. Explanation 2:
A ship capacity of 6 is the minimum to ship all the packages in 3 days like this: 1st day: 3, 2 2nd day: 2, 4 3rd day: 1, 4
Solution:–
import java.util.*; import java.lang.*; import java.io.*; public class Main { public static Boolean check(int[] arr, long capacity, int days) { long sum =0; long day = 1; for(int i=0;i<arr.length; i++) { sum += arr[i]; if(sum > capacity) { day++; sum = arr[i]; } if(day > days) return false; } return true; } public static void main (String[] args) throws java.lang.Exception { //your code here Scanner sc = new Scanner(System.in); int max = Integer.MIN_VALUE; int n = sc.nextInt(); int[] arr = new int[n]; long sumArr=0; long ans = 0; for(int i=0; i<n; i++) { arr[i] = sc.nextInt(); sumArr += arr[i]; if(arr[i] > max) max = arr[i]; } int days = sc.nextInt(); long low = (long)max; long high = sumArr; while(low <= high) { long mid = low + (high-low)/2; boolean result = check(arr, mid,days ); if(result == false) { low = mid + 1; } else { ans = mid; high = mid -1; } } System.out.println(ans); } }
