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.
Solution
In our solution, we begin by sorting the greed factors and cookie sizes.
We then implement a greedy algorithm using two pointers to iterate through the sorted arrays of greed factors and cookie sizes. Within a loop over the cookie sizes, we check if the current cookie can satisfy the greed factor of the current child. If so, we increment the child pointer, indicating a content child, and move on to the next cookie.
This process continues until either all children are satisfied or no more cookies are available.
C# Solution
Solution1
public class Solution {
public int FindContentChildren(int[] g, int[] s) {
Array.Sort(g);
Array.Sort(s);
int i=0;
foreach(var sItem in s){
if(sItem>=g[i]){
i+=1;
}
if(i==g.Length){
return i;
}
}
return i;
}
}
Or you can write it with a two pointer version.
public class Solution {
public int FindContentChildren(int[] g, int[] s) {
Array.Sort(g);
Array.Sort(s);
int i = 0;
int j = 0;
while (i < g.Length && j < s.Length) {
if (s[j] >= g[i]) {
i++;
}
j++;
}
return i;
}
}
Java Solution
Solution1
class Solution {
public int findContentChildren(int[] g, int[] s) {
Arrays.sort(g);
Arrays.sort(s);
int i=0;
for(int sItem : s){
if(sItem>=g[i]){
i+=1;
}
if(i==g.length){
return i;
}
}
return i;
}
}
Python3 Solution
Solution1
class Solution:
def findContentChildren(self, g: List[int], s: List[int]) -> int:
g.sort()
s.sort()
i=0
for sItem in s:
if(sItem>=g[i]):
i+=1
if(i==len(g)):
return i
return i
Conclusion
If I were a parent, I would simply give each child cookies of the same size. Easy and fair 🍪🍪🍪
