Maximum Bags With Full Capacity of Rocks

Problem Statement​

In this tutorial, we will solve the Maximum Bags With Full Capacity of Rocks problem . We will provide the implementation of the solution in Python, Java, and C++.

Problem Description​

You have n bags numbered from 0 to n - 1. You are given two 0-indexed integer arrays capacity and rocks. The ith bag can hold a maximum of capacity[i] rocks and currently contains rocks[i] rocks. You are also given an integer additionalRocks, the number of additional rocks you can place in any of the bags.

Return the maximum number of bags that could have full capacity after placing the additional rocks in some bags.

Examples​

Example 1: Input: capacity = [2,3,4,5], rocks = [1,2,4,4], additionalRocks = 2 Output: 3 Explanation: Place 1 rock in bag 0 and 1 rock in bag 1. The number of rocks in each bag are now [2,3,4,4]. Bags 0, 1, and 2 have full capacity. There are 3 bags at full capacity, so we return 3. It can be shown that it is not possible to have more than 3 bags at full capacity. Note that there may be other ways of placing the rocks that result in an answer of 3. Example 2: Input: capacity = [10,2,2], rocks = [2,2,0], additionalRocks = 100 Output: 3 Explanation: Place 8 rocks in bag 0 and 2 rocks in bag 2. The number of rocks in each bag are now [10,2,2]. Bags 0, 1, and 2 have full capacity. There are 3 bags at full capacity, so we return 3. It can be shown that it is not possible to have more than 3 bags at full capacity. Note that we did not use all of the additional rocks.

Constraints​

  • n == capacity.length == rocks.length
  • 1 <= n <= 5 * 104
  • 1 <= capacity[i] <= 109
  • 0 <= rocks[i] <= capacity[i]
  • 1 <= additionalRocks <= 109

Solution of Given Problem​

Intuition and Approach​

The problem can be solved using a brute force approach or an optimized Technique.

Approach 1:Brute Force (Naive)​

Brute Force Approach: The brute force approach involves trying every possible way to distribute the additional rocks among the bags to maximize the number of full bags. This approach is infeasible for large inputs due to its high complexity.

Codes in Different Languages​

#include <vector>

int distributeRocks(std::vector<int>& capacity, std::vector<int>& rocks, int additionalRocks, int idx) {
if (idx == capacity.size() || additionalRocks == 0) {
int fullBags = 0;
for (int i = 0; i < capacity.size(); ++i) {
if (rocks[i] == capacity[i]) {
++fullBags;
}
}
return fullBags;
}

int maxBags = distributeRocks(capacity, rocks, additionalRocks, idx + 1);

for (int i = 1; i <= additionalRocks; ++i) {
if (rocks[idx] + i <= capacity[idx]) {
rocks[idx] += i;
maxBags = std::max(maxBags, distributeRocks(capacity, rocks, additionalRocks - i, idx + 1));
rocks[idx] -= i;
}
}

return maxBags;
}

return distributeRocks(capacity, rocks, additionalRocks, 0);
}


Complexity Analysis​

  • Time Complexity: O(2n)O(2^n)
  • due to trying all combinations.
  • Space Complexity: O(n)O(n)
  • for the recursive stack.
