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

May LeetCoding Challenge 7

Description

Find the Longest Valid Obstacle Course at Each Position

You want to build some obstacle courses. You are given a 0-indexed integer array obstacles of length n, where obstacles[i] describes the height of the ith obstacle.

For every index i between 0 and n - 1 (inclusive), find the length of the longest obstacle course in obstacles such that:

• You choose any number of obstacles between 0 and i inclusive.
• You must include the ith obstacle in the course.
• You must put the chosen obstacles in the same order as they appear in obstacles.
• Every obstacle (except the first) is taller than or the same height as the obstacle immediately before it.

Return an array ans of length n, where ans[i] is the length of the longest obstacle course for index i as described above.

Example 1:

Input: obstacles = [1,2,3,2]
Output: [1,2,3,3]
Explanation: The longest valid obstacle course at each position is:
- i = 0: [1], [1] has length 1.
- i = 1: [1,2], [1,2] has length 2.
- i = 2: [1,2,3], [1,2,3] has length 3.
- i = 3: [1,2,3,2], [1,2,2] has length 3.

Example 2:

Input: obstacles = [2,2,1]
Output: [1,2,1]
Explanation: The longest valid obstacle course at each position is:
- i = 0: [2], [2] has length 1.
- i = 1: [2,2], [2,2] has length 2.
- i = 2: [2,2,1], [1] has length 1.

Example 3:

Input: obstacles = [3,1,5,6,4,2]
Output: [1,1,2,3,2,2]
Explanation: The longest valid obstacle course at each position is:
- i = 0: [3], [3] has length 1.
- i = 1: [3,1], [1] has length 1.
- i = 2: [3,1,5], [3,5] has length 2. [1,5] is also valid.
- i = 3: [3,1,5,6], [3,5,6] has length 3. [1,5,6] is also valid.
- i = 4: [3,1,5,6,4], [3,4] has length 2. [1,4] is also valid.
- i = 5: [3,1,5,6,4,2], [1,2] has length 2.

Constraints:

• n == obstacles.length
• 1 <= n <= 105
• 1 <= obstacles[i] <= 107

Solution

auto speedup = [](){
  cin.tie(nullptr);
  cout.tie(nullptr);
  ios::sync_with_stdio(false);
  return 0;
}();
class Solution {
public:
  vector<int> longestObstacleCourseAtEachPosition(vector<int>& obstacles) {
    int len = obstacles.size();

    vector<int> LIS;
    vector<int> answer;
    answer.reserve(len);

    for(auto i : obstacles) {
      int pos = lower_bound(LIS.begin(), LIS.end(), i + 1) - LIS.begin();
      if(pos == LIS.size()) {
        LIS.push_back(i);
      } else {
        LIS[pos] = i;
      }
      answer.push_back(pos + 1);
    }

    return answer;
  }
};
