2 Pointers

2 Pointers

Given n non-negative integers representing an elevation map where the width of each bar is 1, compute how much water it is able to trap after raining.
Example:
Input: [0,1,0,2,1,0,1,3,2,1,2,1]
Output: 6

int trap(vector& height)
{
    int left = 0, right = height.size() - 1;
    int ans = 0;
    int left_max = 0, right_max = 0;
    while (left < right) {
        if (height[left] < height[right]) {
            height[left] >= left_max ? (left_max = height[left]) : ans += (left_max - height[left]);
            ++left;
        }
        else {
            height[right] >= right_max ? (right_max = height[right]) : ans += (right_max - height[right]);
            --right;
        }
    }
    return ans;
}

注意：使用两个指针逼近，经典的链表问题：https://www.cnblogs.com/dancingrain/p/3405197.html
