Problem
|
|
-------
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Suppose you have a random list of people standing in a queue. Each person is described by a pair of integers (h, k), where h is the height of the person and k is the number of people in front of this person who have a height greater than or equal to h. Write an algorithm to reconstruct the queue.
|
|
|
|
Note:
|
|
The number of people is less than 1,100.
|
|
|
|
|
|
Example
|
|
|
|
Input:
|
|
[[7,0], [4,4], [7,1], [5,0], [6,1], [5,2]]
|
|
|
|
Output:
|
|
[[5,0], [7,0], [5,2], [6,1], [4,4], [7,1]]
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Solution
|
|
----------
|
|
|
|
{% highlight python %}
|
|
|
|
def reconstructQueue(self, people: List[List[int]]) -> List[List[int]]:
|
|
|
|
print(people)
|
|
|
|
# sort ppl by decending height first and k second
|
|
people.sort(key=lambda x: (-x[0], x[1]))
|
|
|
|
print(people)
|
|
|
|
ans = []
|
|
for person, num in people:
|
|
|
|
if num >= len(ans):
|
|
ans.append([person, num])
|
|
else:
|
|
ans.insert(num, [person, num])
|
|
return ans
|
|
|
|
{% endhighlight %}
|
|
|
|
After the initial sort, it looks like this:
|
|
```
|
|
[[7, 0], [4, 4], [7, 1], [5, 0], [6, 1], [5, 2]]
|
|
[[7, 0], [7, 1], [6, 1], [5, 0], [5, 2], [4, 4]]
|
|
[[5, 0], [7, 0], [5, 2], [6, 1], [4, 4], [7, 1]]
|
|
```
