LeetCode Challenge #42. Trapping Rain Water

Given n non-negative integers representing an elevation map where the width of each bar is 1, compute how much water it can trap after raining.

 

Example 1:

rainwatertrap

Input: height = [0,1,0,2,1,0,1,3,2,1,2,1]
Output: 6
Explanation: The above elevation map (black section) is represented by array [0,1,0,2,1,0,1,3,2,1,2,1]. In this case, 6 units of rain water (blue section) are being trapped.

Example 2:

Input: height = [4,2,0,3,2,5]
Output: 9

 

Constraints:

  • n == height.length
  • 1 <= n <= 2 * 104
  • 0 <= height[i] <= 105
Video Solution
Java Solution
				
					class Solution {
    public int trap(int[] height) {
        int n = height.length ;
        int[] leftMax = new int[n];
        leftMax[0]=height[0];

        for(int i=1;i<n;i++){
            leftMax[i] = Math.max(leftMax[i-1],height[i]);
        }

        int[] rightMax = new int[n];
        rightMax[n-1]=height[n-1];
        for(int i=n-2;i>=0;i--){
            rightMax[i] = Math.max(rightMax[i+1],height[i]);
        }

        int ans = 0 ;
        for(int i=0;i<n;i++){
            ans += Math.min(leftMax[i],rightMax[i])-height[i];
        }

        return ans ;
    }
}
