【bzoj1727】[Usaco2006 Open]The Milk Queue 挤奶队列 贪心
题目描述
Every morning, Farmer John's N (1 <= N <= 25,000) cows all line up for milking. In an effort to streamline the milking process, FJ has designed a two-stage milking process where the line of cows progresses through two barns in sequence, with milking taking part sequentially in both barns. Farmer John milks cows one by one as they go through the first barn, and his trusty sidekick Farmer Rob milks the cows (in the same order) as they are released from the first barn and enter the second barn. Unfortunately, Farmer John's insistence that the cows walk through both barns according to a single ordering leads to some inefficiencies. For example, if Farmer John takes too long to milk a particular cow, Farmer Rob might end up sitting idle with nothing to do for some time. On the other hand, if Farmer John works too fast then we might end up with a long queue of cows waiting to enter the second barn. Please help Farmer John decide on the best possible ordering of cows to use for the milking, so that the last cow finishes milking as early as possible. For each cow i we know the time A(i) required for milking in the first barn and the time B(i) required for milking in the second barn. Both A(i) and B(i) are in the range 1...20,000.
输入
* Line 1: A single integer, N.
* Lines 2..1+N: Line i+1 contains two space-separated integers A(i) and B(i) for cow i.
输出
* Line 1: The minimum possible time it takes to milk all the cows, if we order them optimally.

把奶牛们按照3,1,2的顺序排队,这样挤奶总共花费16个单位时间.
题解
神贪心
贪心法则:如果min(a1,b2)<min(a2,b1),那么就先选择1再选择2,其余同理。
严格证明什么的就算了(我也不会……)就说说简单想法吧。
如果有1和2,那么先1后2的时间为a1+b2+max(b1,a2),x先2后1的时间为a2+a1+max(b2,a1)。
要想使先1后2比先2后1合适,则应满足a1+b2+max(b1,a2)<a2+b1+max(b2,a1)。
整理得a1+b2-max(a1,b2)<b1+a2-max(b1,a2)。
两个数的和就是这两个数的最大值与最小值之和(这不是废话吗)。
于是a+b=max(a,b)+min(a,b),即a+b-max(a,b)=min(a,b)。
由此化简上式得min(a1,b2)<min(a2,b1)。
这个条件也应该具有单调性(虽然我证不出来……)。
然后按照这个法则排序求解就行了。
#include <cstdio> #include <algorithm> using namespace std; struct data { int a , b; }c[25001]; bool cmp(data x , data y) { return min(x.a , y.b) < min(x.b , y.a); } int main() { int n , i , w = 0 , ans = 0; scanf("%d" , &n); for(i = 1 ; i <= n ; i ++ ) scanf("%d%d" , &c[i].a , &c[i].b); sort(c + 1 , c + n + 1 , cmp); for(i = 1 ; i <= n ; i ++ ) { ans += c[i].a; w = max(c[i].b , w - c[i].a + c[i].b); } printf("%d\n" , ans + w); return 0; }
