1010. Discrete Function

Time Limit: 1.0 second
Memory Limit: 16 MB

There is a discrete function. It is specified for integer arguments from 1 to N (2 ≤ N ≤ 100000). Each value of the function is longint (signed long in C++). You have to find such two points of the function for which all points between them are below than straight line connecting them and inclination of this straight line is the largest.

Input

There is an N in the first line. Than N lines follow with the values of the function for the arguments 1, 2, …, N respectively.

Output

A pair of integers, which are abscissas of the desired points, should be written into one line of output. The first number must be less then the second one. If it is any ambiguity your program should write the pair with the smallest first number.

Sample

解答如下：

 1  using  System;
 2 
 3  namespace  Skyiv.Ben.Timus
 4  {
 5     //   http://acm.timus.ru/problem.aspx?space=1 &num=1010
 6     sealed   class  T1010
 7    {
 8       static   void  Main()
 9      {
10         int  i0  =   0 , n  =   int .Parse(Console.ReadLine());
11         long  r0  =   0 , v1  =   int .Parse(Console.ReadLine());
12         for  ( int  i  =   0 ; i  <  n  -   1 ; i ++ )
13        {
14           long  v2  =   int .Parse(Console.ReadLine());
15           long  r  =  Math.Abs(v1  -  v2);
16          v1  =  v2;
17           if  (r0  <  r)
18          {
19            r0  =  r;
20            i0  =  i;
21          }
22        }
23        Console.WriteLine( " {0} {1} " , i0  +   1 , i0  +   2 );
24      }
25    }
26  }

这题实际上是很简单的，只要意识到所求倾角最大的连线的两个端点必定是相邻的点就容易了。

两点连线的倾角的正切值(tan)等于这两点的纵坐标之差除以横坐标之差。由于这两点是相邻的点，所以横坐标之差为 1，也就是说，直接等于纵坐标之差。

题目中说的：“Each value of the function is longint (signed long in C++).”，即：该离散函数的值域是 C++ 中的 signed long 数据类型，实际上相当于 C# 中的 int ( 即: System.Int32 ) 数据类型，取值范围是 -2,147,483,648 到 +2,147,483,647。所以可以用 int.Parse() 方法来读取输入。但是进行计算时必须使用 C# 的 long ( 即: System.Int64 ) 数据类型，相当于 C++ 中的 signed long long 数据类型，取值范围是 -9,223,372,036,854,775,808 到 +9,223,372,036,854,775,807，不然计算时就有可能溢出。
