Find Minimum Possible Size
🔥 FULLTIME📚RELATED PROBLEMS
Given an array arr
of n
integers, in a single operation, one can choose two indices, i
and j
, and delete arr[i]
from the array if 2 * arr[i] ≤ arr[j]
.
A particular element can be chosen at most once. Find the minimum possible size of the array after performing the operation any number of times, possibly zero.
Example 1:
Input: arr = [1, 2, 3, 4, 16, 32, 64]
Output: 4
Explanation:• In the first operation, choose 1 and 16 and delete 1 from the array as 2 * 1 ≤ 16. The array becomes [2, 3, 4, 16, 32, 64]. • In the second operation, choose 2 and 32 and delete 2 from the array as 2 * 2 ≤ 32. The array becomes [3, 4, 16, 32, 64]. • In the third operation, choose 4 and 64 and delete 4 from the array as 2 * 4 ≤ 64. The array becomes [3, 16, 32, 64]. Now the only element that has not been chosen is 3. There have to be two elements,arr[i]
andarr[j]
, for a comparison to take place, so no more operations can occur. The minimum possible size of the array is 4. Note that there are multiple ways to achieve 4 elements in the final array after performing the operations.
