Today I have done leetcode's March LeetCoding Challenge with cpp.

March LeetCoding Challenge 5

Description

Delete and Earn

You are given an integer array nums. You want to maximize the number of points you get by performing the following operation any number of times:

  • Pick any nums[i] and delete it to earn nums[i] points. Afterwards, you must delete every element equal to nums[i] - 1 and every element equal to nums[i] + 1.

Return the maximum number of points you can earn by applying the above operation some number of times.

Example 1:

Input: nums = [3,4,2]
Output: 6
Explanation: You can perform the following operations:
- Delete 4 to earn 4 points. Consequently, 3 is also deleted. nums = [2].
- Delete 2 to earn 2 points. nums = [].
You earn a total of 6 points.

Example 2:

Input: nums = [2,2,3,3,3,4]
Output: 9
Explanation: You can perform the following operations:
- Delete a 3 to earn 3 points. All 2's and 4's are also deleted. nums = [3,3].
- Delete a 3 again to earn 3 points. nums = [3].
- Delete a 3 once more to earn 3 points. nums = [].
You earn a total of 9 points.

Constraints:

  • 1 <= nums.length <= 2 * 10^4
  • 1 <= nums[i] <= 10^4

Solution

class Solution {
public:
  int deleteAndEarn(vector<int>& nums) {
    int dp[10001] = {};
    int count[10001] = {};
    for(auto num : nums) {
      count[num] += 1;
    }
    dp[1] = count[1];
    for(int i = 2; i <= 10000; ++i) {
      dp[i] = max(dp[i - 1], dp[i - 2] + i * count[i]);
    }
    return dp[10000];
  }
};
