Leetcode 455: Assign Cookies
Assume you are an awesome parent and want to give your children some cookies. But, you should give each child at most one cookie.
Each child i
has a greed factor g[i]
, which is the minimum size of a cookie that the child will be content with; and each cookie j
has a size s[j]
. If s[j] >= g[i]
, we can assign the cookie j
to the child i
, and the child i
will be content. Your goal is to maximize the number of your content children and output the maximum number.
Example 1:
Input: g = [1,2,3], s = [1,1] Output: 1 Explanation: You have 3 children and 2 cookies. The greed factors of 3 children are 1, 2, 3. And even though you have 2 cookies, since their size is both 1, you could only make the child whose greed factor is 1 content. You need to output 1.
class Solution {public int findContentChildren(int[] g, int[] s) {Arrays.sort(g);Arrays.sort(s);int a_pointer = 0;int b_pointer = 0;while (a_pointer < g.length && b_pointer < s.length) {if (g[a_pointer] <= s[b_pointer]) {a_pointer++;b_pointer++;} else {b_pointer++;}}return a_pointer;}
}
