We have a collection of rocks, each rock has a positive integer weight.
Each turn, we choose the two heaviest rocks and smash them
together. Suppose the stones have weights x
and y
with
x <= y
. The result of this smash is:
x == y
, both stones are totally destroyed;x != y
, the stone of weight x
is totally destroyed, and the
stone of weight y
has new weight y-x
.
At the end, there is at most 1 stone left. Return the weight of this stone (or 0 if there are no stones left.)
Example 1:
Input: [2,7,4,1,8,1] Output: 1 Explanation: We combine 7 and 8 to get 1 so the array converts to [2,4,1,1,1] then, we combine 2 and 4 to get 2 so the array converts to [2,1,1,1] then, we combine 2 and 1 to get 1 so the array converts to [1,1,1] then, we combine 1 and 1 to get 0 so the array converts to [1] then that's the value of last stone.
Note:
1 <= stones.length <= 30
1 <= stones[i] <= 1000
