Median


dynamic


Max Score: 67

The median of M numbers is defined as the middle number after sorting them in order if M is odd or the average number of the middle 2 numbers (again after sorting) if M is even. You have an empty
number list at first. Then you can add or remove some number from the list. For each add or remove operation, output the median of numbers in the list.

Example : 

For a set of m = 5 numbers, { 9, 2, 8, 4, 1 } the median is the third number in sorted set { 1, 2, 4, 8, 9 } which is 4. Similarly for set of m = 4, { 5, 2, 10, 4 }, the median is the average of second and the third element in the sorted set { 2, 4, 5, 10 }
which is (4+5)/2 = 4.5  

Input: 

The first line is an integer n indicates the number of operations. Each of the next n lines is either “a x” or “r x” which indicates the operation is add or remove.

Output: 

For each operation: If the operation is add output the median after adding x in a single line. If the operation is remove and the number x is not in the list, output “Wrong!” in a single line. If the operation is remove and the number x is in the list, output
the median after deleting x in a single line. (if the result is an integer DO NOT output decimal point. And if the result is a double number , DO NOT output trailing 0s.)

Constraints: 

0 < n <= 100,000 

For each “a x” or “r x”, x will always be an integer which will fit in 32 bit signed integer.

Sample Input:

7  
r 1  
a 1  
a 2  
a 1  
r 1  
r 2  
r 1  

Sample Output:

Wrong!  
1  
1.5  
1  
1.5  
1  
Wrong!

Note: As evident from the last line of the input, if after remove operation the list becomes empty you have to print “Wrong!” ( quotes are for clarity ). 

题意:有n个操作,a是在集合中添加一个数,r是移除一个数,如果没有这个数输出wrong,每次操作都输出中位数,如果长度为偶数,输出最中间两个数和的一般,忽略末尾0,当集合长度为奇数时直接输出最中间的一个数。如果没有中位数的时候就输出wrong,比如说操作结束后集合为空。

思路:我们一般求中位数的方法是先将集合中的元素进行排序,然后得出结果,但是我们要进行好多次的插入删除的工作,不能每次都进行排序,这种方法必然超时,只能另辟蹊径了。

           我这里使用了stl里的multiset(因为可能有重复的元素,所以不能使用set),set可以以O(logn)的时间复杂度进行插入和删除,而且在插入删除的过程中也会维持有序,这样我们就不需要额外的排序工作了,这无疑又节省了时间。但是,set好像不能随机访问,至少我还没找到随机访问的方法(如果有找到告诉我一声),所以我只能通过迭代器遍历访问最中间的元素了,可能是因为这个原因,后面几组测试样例都超时了,下面看我解题代码,我只能说我只有第一组测试过了,后面的错误和超时,求批评指正。

#include <stdio.h>
#include <set>;
using namespace std;

multiset<int> s;                                 //不能用set请回看上文

int main()
{
    int n, l;
    while (scanf("%d",&n) != EOF)
    {
        s.clear();
        l = 0;
        char op;
        int x;
        while (n--)
        {
            int f = 1;
            getchar();
            scanf("%c %d",&op,&x);
            multiset<int>::iterator it;            //迭代器指针,虽然不懂,但是就这么用了
            if (op == 'r')
            {
                if (s.count(x) == 0)
                {
                    puts("Wrong!");
                    f = 0;
                }
                else
                {
                    it = s.find(x);
                    s.erase(it);
                    /*这里要解释一下,为什么不直接使用s.erase(x)呢!!因为x可能有多个值,
                    这样会将所有的x都删除的*/
                    l--;
                    if (!l)
                    {
                        f = 0;
                        puts("Wrong!");
                    }
                }
            }
            else
            {
                s.insert(x);
                l++;
            }
            if (f)
            {
                it = s.begin();
                if (l == 1)
                {
                    printf("%d\n",*it);
                    continue;
                }
                for (int i = 1; i < l/2; i++)
                    it++;
                if (l%2 == 1)
                {
                    it++;
                    printf("%d\n",*it);
                }
                else
                {
                    float ans = (float)*it;
                    it++;
                    ans += (float)*it;
                    printf("%g\n",ans / 2);
                }
            }
        }
    }
    return 0;
}

只能说这题我想多了,使用普通的插入排序完全可以解决这道题,在查找的时候用二分加快查找速度。

正确解题报告


       这道题的关键在于,不能用int,因为两个int相加可能会越界!因为这个WA了好多遍。所以改用long long。


对double,使用math.h中的函数ceil(double)可以取整,根据ceil(v) == v的结果可以判断v是否是整数。


然后输出格式方面 printf("%.0lf", v),代表输出double,且保留0位小数。

    }
    else
	sum = a[size/2];
	if (ceil(sum) == sum)
		printf("%.0lf\n", sum);
	else
		printf("%.1lf\n", sum);
