Bittu is a chocolate-loving kid playing a game where he can choose bags of chocolates. Each bag has a different number of chocolates. Bittu starts with k chocolates and 1 point. He has two choices for each bag:

1. Accept the Bag:

• If the chocolates in the bag are fewer than or equal to the chocolates Bittu has, he won't accept the bag. Instead, he'll deduct the bag's chocolates from his stash and gain one point.

• If the chocolates in the bag are more than what Bittu has, he can accept the bag. His chocolate stash increases by the bag's chocolates, and he loses one point.

1. Ignore the Bag:

• Bittu can choose to ignore any number of bags without any consequences.

The goal is to maximize Bittu's points. Given an array "chocolates" with the number of chocolates in each bag, and the initial number of chocolates Bittu has, determine the maximum points he can achieve by selecting bags wisely

In simpler terms, he wants to acquire the maximum number of points while following the above mentioned rules.

Constraints

n — length of the array

1 <= n <= 1000

0 <= chocolates[i] <= 10^5

Input

First line consisting of the number of chocolates in n bags separated by space.

Second line consists of an integer depicting the number of chocolates that Bittu has, initially.

Output

Print the maximum points that Bittu can acquire.

Someone please help me with this problem. I am trying a DP solution but it is giving MLE.

The earnings of gold through mining is 'x' units of gold per day. There are 'n' machines available that can be bought and the cost of the ith machine is arr[i] units of gold. It can be decided to buy any machine on any day if there is a sufficient amount of gold to buy that machine and any ith machine can be bought only once. Also, Each machine extracts extra 'z' units of gold per day, i.e. if there are 'j' machines then one can get (x + j * z) units of gold per day. Note that you can buy multiple machines on the same day.

Initially, there is no gold. Find the maximum amount of gold that one can get at the end of 'k' days.

Parameters:

x: an integer denoting units of gold you earn per day

z: an integer denoting units of gold, machine extract per day

arr[arr[0],...arr[n-1]]: An array of integers denoting the costs of all machines

k: an integer denoting the number of days

Example 1:

Input:

x = 1, z = 2, n = 3, arr = [3,2,4], k = 5

Output:

10

Explanation:

Day 1: Earn 1 unit of gold. Current amount of gold = 1

Day 2: Earn 1 unit of gold. Current amount of gold = 2

Day 3: Buy machine 1 at the start of day 3 which cost arr[1] = 2 units of gold. Current amount of gold = 2 — 2 + (1 + 2 x 1) = 3.

Day 4: Buy machine 0 at the start of day 4 which cost arr[0] = 3 units of gold. Current amount of gold = 3 — 3 + (1 + 2 x 2) = 5.

Day 5: Earn 5 units of gold (1 through mining and 4 through 2 machines bought). Final amount of gold = 5 + 5 = 10.

Example 2:

Input:

x = 3, z = 2, n = 3, arr = [4,2,3], k = 4

Output:

17

Explanation:

Day 1: Earn 3 units of gold. Current amount of gold = 3.

Day 2: Buy machine 2 at the start of day 2 which cost arr[2] = 3 units of gold. Current amount of gold = 3 — 3 + (3 + 2 x 1) = 5.

Day 3: Buy machine 1 at the start of day 3 which cost arr[1] = 2 units of gold. Current amount of gold = 5 — 2 + (3 + 2 x 2) = 10.

Day 4: Earn 7 units of gold (3 through mining and 4 through 2 machines bought). Final amount of gold = 10 + 7 = 17.

Example 3:

Input:

x = 8, z = 3, n = 3, arr = [7,7,7], k = 2

Output:

16

Explanation:

Day 1: Earn 8 units of gold. Current amount of gold = 8.

Day 2: Earn 8 units of gold (only through mining). Final amount of gold = 8 + 8 = 16

Constraints:

1 <= n <= 10^5

1 <= arr[i] <= 10^5

1 <= x , z <= 10^5

1 <= k <= 10^5

Someone please tell the approach and the solution to this problem.

Jack has invited her friend Tina to play a game of numbers.The game is as follows:

There are a total of 'N' numbers (1,2,3....N) with Jack. He has to share 'X' of them with Tina. After sharing 'X' numbers, Jack has a set of '(N-X)' numbers and Tina has a set of 'X' numbers. Consider Jack's set as J and that of Tina 'T'. Now, the distribution should happen in such a way that each number from set 'J' should have a GCD of '1' from set of numbers in 'T'. Formally, GCD(x,y) = 1, where 'x' are the elements of set 'J', and 'y' are the elements of set 'T'.

Input: Value of N and X

Output: If the above condition is possible, print "Yes". Followed by (separated by SPACE), the number of components of 'T' (X number of components from set). If condition is not satisfied then print "No".

Example 1:

Input:

N = 4, X = 1

Output: Yes 3

Let us try to understand it with and example. Consider a set of N = 4 and X = 1. It means that the entire set Contains S= [1,2,3,4], and 'J' contains number from this set. He also needs to make sure that each number from his, set and Tina's set have a GCD of '1'.

By looking into the elements of the Jack's set, we can clearly see that element '2' and '4' should be in same set otherwise they will make a GCD of 2, which will ultimately not satisfy the above condition.

If we take the element '3' from the Jack's set, and give to Tina, then we can have all the conditions satisfy because the remaining element of Jack's set (1, 2, 4) will have a common GCD of 1 with the element of Tina's set which is 3.

Hence the output is : Yes 3

Example 2:

Input:

N = 6, X = 3

Output:

No

Explanation:

In this scenario, we have to give 3 elements to Tina. Initially Jack's set contains [1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6]. The best case which we can think of is to share the prime numbers to Tina and leave the rest with Jack, or vice- versa.

In that case, Jacks's set = [2, 4, 6] Tina's set = [1, 3, 5]

But, if you see closely the element '6' and '3' will have a GCD of 3, hence the conditions will fall.

And the result will come out to be No.

Hence the output is: No

Example 3:

Input:

N = 4, X = 3

Output: Yes 1 2 4

Someone kindly solve this with explanation. Thanks.

A teacher takes an array of numbers and asks the students to perform the following operation: pick two adjacent positive numbers, ai and ai+1, and replace the two numbers with either (ai%(ai+1)) or (ai+1)%ai ,where x%y denotes x modulo y. Thus, after each operation, the array's length decreases by 1.

The task is to find the minimum possible length of the array, which can be achieved by performing the above operation any number of times

Example

Consider the array's length to be n=4 and the array of numbers to be arr=[1,1,2,3]. The following sequence of operations can be performed (considering 1-based indexing):

1. arr=[1, 1, 2, 3]: Choose i=3, thus arr[i]= 2 and arr[i+1]=3. We get the new value to be given by 2%3

=2 or 3 % 2=1. The resulting array can thus be [1, 1, 2] or [1, 1. 1]. We consider the former one to minimize the array length.

1. arr=[1,1,2]: Choose i= 2, thus arr[i]=1 and arr[i+1]=2. We can get the new array as [1, 1].

3 arr=[1, 1]: Choose i=1 to get the array [0].

Thus the minimum possible length for the above array would be 1.

Could someone please help me in solving this?

Given a board with an integer 'n' written on it, select an integer 'x' from the board. For each, 'i' from 1 to 'x', if the remainder when 'x' is divided by 'i' is 1, add the integer (x-i) to the board. Find out the maximum number of distinct integers that can be present on the board.

Example- n = 4

Initially, only the given number 4 is on the board. There is one value that leaves a remainder of 1: 4%3=1. Add the value 4-3=1 to the board, so it now contains [1,4]. There is no longer 'i' such that 1%i=1. There are 2 distinct integers on the board, so return 2.

Constraints- 1<=n<=1000

If someone could explain the approach then it would be very helpful. Thanks.
