LeetCode Problem #11 Container With Most Water Given n non-negative integers a 1 , a 2 , ..., a n , where each represents a point at coordinate ( i , a i ). n vertical lines are drawn such that the two endpoints of line i is at ( i , a i ) and ( i , 0). Find two lines, which together with x-axis forms a container, such that the container contains the most water. Note: You may not slant the container and n is at least 2. The above vertical lines are represented by array [1,8,6,2,5,4,8,3,7]. In this case, the max area of water (blue section) the container can contain is 49. Problem Link Solution Number One O(n^2) Brute Force : Try all valid combinations outer loop start from i = 0 to length of array inner loop start from j = i+1 to length of array compare current area with new area and choose max. return max area. Solution Number Two O(n) : Linear Solution greedy algorithm: calc...
