最大限度地减少将所有数组元素(从1减少到0)所需的对减量

给定一个由N个不同元素组成的数组arr [] ，任务是查找每个步骤中需要减少1对的最大对数，以使N – 1个数组元素减少为0，而其余的数组元素为a。非负整数。

例子：

Input: arr[] = {1, 2, 3}
Output: 3
Explanation: 
Decrease arr[1] and arr[2] by 1 modifies arr[] = {1, 1, 2} 
Decrease arr[1] and arr[2] by 1 modifies arr[] = {1, 0, 1} 
Decrease arr[0] and arr[2] by 1 modifies arr[] = {0, 0, 0} 
Therefore, the maximum number of decrements required is 3.
 

Input: arr[] = {1, 2, 3, 4, 5}
Output: 7

处理方法：可以贪婪地解决问题。请按照以下步骤解决问题：

• 初始化一个变量，例如cntOp ，以存储使数组的(N – 1)个元素等于0所需的最大步数。
• 创建一个优先级队列，例如PQ ，以存储数组元素。
• 遍历数组并将数组元素插入PQ 。
• 现在，从优先级队列中重复提取前2个元素，将这两个元素的值都减1 ，再次将这两个元素插入优先级队列，并将cntOp增1 。当PQ的(N – 1)元素等于0时，此过程继续进行。
• 最后，打印cntOp的值

下面是上述方法的实现：

C++

// C++ program to implement
// the above approach
#include 
using namespace std;
 
// Function to count maximum number of steps
// to make (N - 1) array elements to 0
int cntMaxOperationToMakeN_1_0(int arr[], int N)
{
 
    // Stores maximum count of steps to make
    // (N - 1) elements equal to 0
    int cntOp = 0;
 
    // Stores array elements
    priority_queue PQ;
 
    // Traverse the array
    for (int i = 0; i < N; i++) {
 
        // Insert arr[i] into PQ
        PQ.push(arr[i]);
    }
 
    // Extract top 2 elements from the array
    // while (N - 1) array elements become 0
    while (PQ.size() > 1) {
 
        // Stores top element
        // of PQ
        int X = PQ.top();
 
        // Pop the top element
        // of PQ.
        PQ.pop();
 
        // Stores top element
        // of PQ
        int Y = PQ.top();
 
        // Pop the top element
        // of PQ.
        PQ.pop();
 
        // Update X
        X--;
 
        // Update Y
        Y--;
 
        // If X is not equal to 0
        if (X != 0) {
 
            // Insert X into PQ
            PQ.push(X);
        }
 
        // if Y is not equal
        // to 0
        if (Y != 0) {
 
            // Insert Y
            // into PQ
            PQ.push(Y);
        }
 
        // Update cntOp
        cntOp += 1;
    }
 
    return cntOp;
}
 
// Driver Code
int main()
{
 
    int arr[] = { 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 };
 
    int N = sizeof(arr) / sizeof(arr[0]);
 
    cout << cntMaxOperationToMakeN_1_0(arr, N);
 
    return 0;
}
