我希望能更快地做到这一点。我打算用一棵树,但我不确定这是否真的有用。
我觉得这个问题适用于大多数情况下你不需要计算所有可能的最大值只有一手牌,但我不知道在哪里画线
非常感谢您的投入, 碧玉

可以在线性时间和线性记忆中完成。我们的想法是:找到数组的每个后缀的最小值,并在每个前缀上找到最大值,然后找到两者之间差异最大的点。如果需要索引而不仅仅是差值,您还必须存储每个前缀的最大/最小值的索引。

预先排序[]会使程序变得复杂并损害性能。没有必要,所以我们留下[]未分类。
然后(编辑,因为我在你的代码正文中读了j&gt; = i,而不是问题描述/标题中的i&gt; = j,我现在假设它是必需的(我没有过去)你的编码细节);无论如何,这两个品种很容易相互推导出来。)
// initialize result(indices)
int iFound = 0;
int jFound = 0;
// initialize a candidate that MAY replace jFound
int jAlternative = -1; // -1 signals: no candidate currently available
// process the (remaining) elements of the array - skip #0: we've already handled that one at the initialization
for (int i=1; i<size; i++)
{
// if we have an alternative, see if that combines with the current element to a higher "max".
if ((jAlternative != -1) && (a[jAlternative]-a[i] > a[jFound]-a[iFound]))
{
jFound = jAlternative;
iFound = i;
jAlternative = -1;
}
else if (a[i] < a[iFound]) // then we can set a[iFound] lower, thereby increasing "max"
{
iFound = i;
}
else if (a[i] > a[jFound])
{ // we cannot directly replace jFound, because of the condition iFound>=jFound,
// but when we later may find a lower a[i], then it can jump in:
// set it as a waiting candidate (replacing an existing one if the new one is more promising).
if ((jAlternative = -1) || (a[i] > a[jAlternative]))
{
jAlternative = i;
}
}
}
double result = a[jFound] - a[iFound];
