[LeetCode]455. Assign Cookies

Posted on Views: Reading time ≈ 1 mins.

题目

Assume you are an awesome parent and want to give your children some cookies. But, you should give each child at most one cookie. Each child i has a greed factor gi, which is the minimum size of a cookie that the child will be content with; and each cookie j has a size sj. If sj >= gi, we can assign the cookie j to the child i, and the child i will be content. Your goal is to maximize the number of your content children and output the maximum number.

Note:
You may assume the greed factor is always positive.
You cannot assign more than one cookie to one child.

Example 1:

1
2
3
4
5
6
7
8
Input: [1,2,3], [1,1]

Output: 1

Explanation: You have 3 children and 2 cookies. The greed factors of 3 children are 1, 2, 3. 
And even though you have 2 cookies, since their size is both 1, 
you could only make the child whose greed factor is 1 content.
You need to output 1.

Example 2:

1
2
3
4
5
6
7
Input: [1,2], [1,2,3]

Output: 2

Explanation: You have 2 children and 3 cookies. The greed factors of 2 children are 1, 2. 
You have 3 cookies and their sizes are big enough to gratify all of the children, 
You need to output 2.

难度

Easy

方法

首先对s和g排序，如果s~j~=gi，则content_count++,j++,i++；否则j++，直到s~j~>=g~i~。注意i和j边界的处理
