DIFFICULTY:
SIMPLE
PREREQUISITES:
Map or Hashmap
PROBLEM:
Given N integers A_1,A_2,\ldots,A_N. For each index i (1≤i≤N), divide A_i into two positive integers x and y such that x+y=A_i, then place this as a point (x,y) in the infinite 2-dimensional coordinate plane. Find the maximum number of distinct points that can be put in the plane, if we optimally split the values A_i. Note that you can only perform one split for each index.
EXPLANATION
For a given number K, how many positive integer pairs (x,y) exist such that x+y=K, where x,y>0.
The answer is K-1. The following pairs: (1, K-1), (2, K-2), \ldots,(K-1,1).
Now using this fact, if a number X appears C_X times in A then we can get min(C_X, X-1) distinct coordinate pairs from them.
Find the sum of min(C_X, X-1) for every distinct number X in A.
TIME COMPLEXITY:
O(N) if using hash maps
or O(N \log N) if using maps to find frequency.
