2960. Count Tested Devices After Test Operations
Description
You are given a 0-indexed integer array batteryPercentages
having length n
, denoting the battery percentages of n
0-indexed devices.
Your task is to test each device i
in order from 0
to n - 1
, by performing the following test operations:
- If
batteryPercentages[i]
is greater than0
:<ul> <li><strong>Increment</strong> the count of tested devices.</li> <li><strong>Decrease</strong> the battery percentage of all devices with indices <code>j</code> in the range <code>[i + 1, n - 1]</code> by <code>1</code>, ensuring their battery percentage <strong>never goes below</strong> <code>0</code>, i.e, <code>batteryPercentages[j] = max(0, batteryPercentages[j] - 1)</code>.</li> <li>Move to the next device.</li> </ul> </li> <li>Otherwise, move to the next device without performing any test.</li>
Return an integer denoting the number of devices that will be tested after performing the test operations in order.
Example 1:
Input: batteryPercentages = [1,1,2,1,3] Output: 3 Explanation: Performing the test operations in order starting from device 0: At device 0, batteryPercentages[0] > 0, so there is now 1 tested device, and batteryPercentages becomes [1,0,1,0,2]. At device 1, batteryPercentages[1] == 0, so we move to the next device without testing. At device 2, batteryPercentages[2] > 0, so there are now 2 tested devices, and batteryPercentages becomes [1,0,1,0,1]. At device 3, batteryPercentages[3] == 0, so we move to the next device without testing. At device 4, batteryPercentages[4] > 0, so there are now 3 tested devices, and batteryPercentages stays the same. So, the answer is 3.
Example 2:
Input: batteryPercentages = [0,1,2] Output: 2 Explanation: Performing the test operations in order starting from device 0: At device 0, batteryPercentages[0] == 0, so we move to the next device without testing. At device 1, batteryPercentages[1] > 0, so there is now 1 tested device, and batteryPercentages becomes [0,1,1]. At device 2, batteryPercentages[2] > 0, so there are now 2 tested devices, and batteryPercentages stays the same. So, the answer is 2.
Constraints:
1 <= n == batteryPercentages.length <= 100
0 <= batteryPercentages[i] <= 100
Solutions
Solution 1: Simulation
Assume that the current number of devices we have tested is $ans$. When testing a new device $i$, its remaining battery is $\max(0, batteryPercentages[i] - ans)$. If the remaining battery is greater than $0$, it means this device can be tested, and we need to increase $ans$ by $1$.
Finally, return $ans$.
The time complexity is $O(n)$, where $n$ is the length of the array. The space complexity is $O(1)$.
