  • Problem-solving of recent div1 A-B problems from Codeforces. Watch me if you want to practice Competitive Programming, algorithms or you want to learn for a coding interview. I share my thought process, explain everything, and mention similar problems that I know or techniques/algorithms that could be used too. Learn from me and grow your rating on Codeforces!

    Please, guys, don't always compare him with tourist. He is best in his own way. Here he makes tutorial videos that help many people around the world. According to me he is best and I don't care about, he wins the competition or not but he is only one who helps us, tourist not.

    Codeforces Round #517 - B: Minimum path
    in the first part of the problem instead of DP, we can use Dijkstra`s algorithm to get the same matrix as of the DP matrix.

    I've been writing software for years and haven't interviewed in about 10. This is never used on the job so why is it tested for during interviews? Wouldn't system design make much more sense?

  • @amhanafy
    @amhanafy Před 5 lety +1

    why at 16:00 at least one set has (k*(k+1))/4 ??
    and what is k ? the number of remaining numbers from right?

    • @kamildebowski7003
      @kamildebowski7003 Před 5 lety +2

      If you want to split A numbers into two groups, one group must have at least A/2 numbers. Here we have A=k*(k+1)/2.
      k is the number of remaining numbers on the left.

    • @amhanafy
      @amhanafy Před 5 lety

      ok now i know that if we want the remaining space between 2 sets k*(k+1)/4 but how we make sure that there's a space left
      so using the first while loop we make sure that the highest k here equal to i -1 can be splitted to 2 groups
      am i getting it right ?

    • @kamildebowski7003
      @kamildebowski7003 Před 5 lety +1

      You're getting it right. And the proof was explained in the video.

    @ahmedshawky9845 Před 5 lety

    for the first problem how could we prove that you need to select numbers from right to left instead of left to right?

    • @Errichto
      @Errichto  Před 5 lety +4

      I proved why taking from right to left worked. I also said some intuition why the opposite doesn't work: when you decide about some first numbers, you are left with big numbers that might not fit in either set/bag.
