There are N gas stations along a circular route, where the amount of gas at station i is gas[i].
You have a car with an unlimited gas tank and it costs cost[i] of gas to travel from station i to its next station (i+1). You begin the journey with an empty tank at one of the gas stations.
Return the starting gas station's index if you can travel around the circuit once, otherwise return -1.
Note:
The solution is guaranteed to be unique.
//感谢IT技术小屋的思路!
//此题蛮有意思的,思路如下:
//此题参考网上http://www.blogjava.net/menglee/archive/2013/12/19/407753.html
//由于gas[0] + gas[1] + ... + gas[n] >= cost[0] + cost[1] + .. + cost[n]
//那么必定有解,因为可转化为
//(gas[0] - cost[0]) + (gas[1] - cost[1]) + ... + (gas[n] - cost[n]) >= 0 (根据加法的交换性可有以下结论)
//只是其中某些可能为负,某些为正,但有解则必定正大于负数
//所以1、只需判断总和是否 >= 0 , 2、如果大于等于0,找出最后一个为(gas[i] - cost[i])累加为负的的下标,那么下一个索引值即为开始值!!!
int canCompleteCircuit(vector<int> &gas, vector<int> &cost) {
int sum_part = 0;
int sum_total = 0;
int length = gas.size();
int index_store = -1;
for(int i = 0 ; i < length; i++)
{
sum_part += gas[i] - cost[i];//求和
sum_total += gas[i] - cost[i];//求和
if(sum_part < 0)//进行上面2的判断
{
index_store = i;
sum_part = 0;//重新开始找为负的站
}
}
if(sum_total >= 0)//有解
{
return index_store+1;//为负数的下一站!
}
return -1;
}
