PRATA - Roti Prata |
IEEE is having its AGM next week and the president wants to serve cheese prata after the meeting. The subcommittee members are asked to go to food connection and get P (P<=1000) pratas packed for the function. The stall has L cooks (L<=50) and each cook has a rank R (1<=R<=8). A cook with a rank R can cook 1 prata in the first R minutes 1 more prata in the next 2R minutes, 1 more prata in 3R minutes and so on (he can only cook a complete prata) (For example if a cook is ranked 2, he will cook one prata in 2 minutes one more prata in the next 4 mins an one more in the next 6 minutes hence in total 12 minutes he cooks 3 pratas in 13 minutes also he can cook only 3 pratas as he does not have enough time for the 4th prata). The webmaster wants to know the minimum time to get the order done. Please write a program to help him out.
Input
The first line tells the number of test cases. Each test case consist of 2 lines. In the first line of the test case we have P the number of prata ordered. In the next line the first integer denotes the number of cooks L and L integers follow in the same line each denoting the rank of a cook.
Output
Print an integer which tells the number of minutes needed to get the order done.
Example
Input:

let max_rank=(the max rank in the given array) let p=number of prata req. upper_limit=(p*(2*max_rank+(p-1)*max_rank))/2 (sum of p terms in ap) |

Had to learn Min Heap and Priority Queue just to solve this. And finally ac :) Last edit: 2018-11-11 18:26:43 |

Set upper limit as 10000007 in Java, it gives TLE with 10^9 :) |

I agree with @pallindromeguy you should take upper limit quite high |
