E. Convention

Input file: standard input

Time limit: 1 second
Memory limit: 256 megabytes
 
Cows from all over the world are arriving at the local airport to attend the convention and eat grass. Specifically, there are N cows arriving at the airport (1 ≤ N ≤ 10^5) and cow i arrives at time ti (0 ≤ ti ≤ 10^9). Farmer John has arranged M (1 ≤ M ≤ 10^5) buses to transport the cows from the airport. Each bus can hold up to C cows in it (1 ≤ C ≤ N). Farmer John is waiting with the buses at the airport and would like to assign the arriving cows to the buses. A bus can leave at the time when the last cow on it arrives. Farmer John wants to be a good host and so does not want to keep the arriving cows waiting at the airport too long. What is the smallest possible value of the maximum waiting time of any one arriving cow if Farmer John coordinates his buses optimally? A cow’s waiting time is the difference between her arrival time and the departure of her assigned bus.
It is guaranteed that MC ≥ N.
 
 
Input
The first line contains three space separated integers N, M, and C. The next line contains N space separated integers representing the arrival time of each cow.
 
Output
Please write one line containing the optimal minimum maximum waiting time for any one arriving cow.

题目描述:

农夫要在机场接待奶牛,给出每个奶牛到达的时间。现在农夫有M辆车,一辆车可以装满C头牛,问如何安排才能使在这所有奶牛的等待时间中(有些车没装够奶牛可能会多等几头奶牛来再开走,这样就产生了等待时间),奶牛等待时间最大的那个尽可能短。
 

题目分析:

这道题的表述有点像之前我做过的题:传送门  
其实关键的是这里:“最大的时间尽可能短”,和奶牛隔间那道题很相似。这提示了我们应该要用二分来做。我们再看看题目的时间:10^9  ,这么大,当用二分来做时,复杂度是O(log n),也就是大概32次就能做出来了,说明极有可能是二分。这道题的确用二分来完成,所以套二分的模板就可以完成二分的部分,只要区间设置成左开右闭就行了,关键是check()函数怎么写,这个是重点。
 
当我们要验证时间 t 是否满足题目的最大等待时间时,我们可以这样想:
假设之前公交车上没有牛,现在第一头牛到了机场,然后上了车,只要这第一头牛等待了 t 时间后把车开走就行了。在这 t 时间内,如果还有其他牛到达,就把他们先安排上第一头牛的车。车如果载满牛的话就开走。然后再反复按照这个规则安排。如果按照这样的规则,车不够用,那么就返回false,车够用的化就返回true。有些人可能有疑问:如果车还没有等待到时间 t 后提前开走(也就是载满牛的情况),用这个方法就算不出答案了。其实在这里也是可以算出答案的,因为时间 t 满足上面的条件时,答案区间就会变成( left, t]。也就是说答案是小于等于 t 的,就算我们的 t 是不符合最大等待时间的,但是我们也得出了答案的范围,所以这个check()函数的写法是有效的。
