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

December LeetCoding Challenge 4

Description

Minimum Average Difference

You are given a 0-indexed integer array nums of length n.

The average difference of the index i is the absolute difference between the average of the first i + 1 elements of nums and the average of the last n - i - 1 elements. Both averages should be rounded down to the nearest integer.

Return the index with the minimum average difference. If there are multiple such indices, return the smallest one.

Note:

• The absolute difference of two numbers is the absolute value of their difference.
• The average of n elements is the sum of the n elements divided (integer division) by n.
• The average of 0 elements is considered to be 0.

Example 1:

Input: nums = [2,5,3,9,5,3]
Output: 3
Explanation:
- The average difference of index 0 is: |2 / 1 - (5 + 3 + 9 + 5 + 3) / 5| = |2 / 1 - 25 / 5| = |2 - 5| = 3.
- The average difference of index 1 is: |(2 + 5) / 2 - (3 + 9 + 5 + 3) / 4| = |7 / 2 - 20 / 4| = |3 - 5| = 2.
- The average difference of index 2 is: |(2 + 5 + 3) / 3 - (9 + 5 + 3) / 3| = |10 / 3 - 17 / 3| = |3 - 5| = 2.
- The average difference of index 3 is: |(2 + 5 + 3 + 9) / 4 - (5 + 3) / 2| = |19 / 4 - 8 / 2| = |4 - 4| = 0.
- The average difference of index 4 is: |(2 + 5 + 3 + 9 + 5) / 5 - 3 / 1| = |24 / 5 - 3 / 1| = |4 - 3| = 1.
- The average difference of index 5 is: |(2 + 5 + 3 + 9 + 5 + 3) / 6 - 0| = |27 / 6 - 0| = |4 - 0| = 4.
The average difference of index 3 is the minimum average difference so return 3.

Example 2:

Input: nums = [0]
Output: 0
Explanation:
The only index is 0 so return 0.
The average difference of index 0 is: |0 / 1 - 0| = |0 - 0| = 0.

Constraints:

• 1 <= nums.length <= 105
• 0 <= nums[i] <= 105

Solution

class Solution {
public:
  int minimumAverageDifference(vector<int>& nums) {
    long long sum = accumulate(nums.begin(), nums.end(), 0LL);
    long long front = 0;
    long long back = sum;
    int answer = 0;
    int current = INT_MAX;
    int len = nums.size();
    for(int i = 0; i < len; ++i) {
      front += nums[i];
      back -= nums[i];
      int frontAvarage = front / (i + 1);
      int backAvarage = back ? back / (len - i - 1) : 0;
      int diff = abs(frontAvarage - backAvarage);
      if(diff < current) {
        answer = i;
        current = diff;
      }
    }
    return answer;
  }
};
