561. Array Partition

Easy

Given an integer array nums of 2n integers, group these integers into n pairs (a1, b1), (a2, b2), ..., (an, bn) such that the sum of min(ai, bi) for all i is maximized. Return the maximized sum.

Example 1:

Input: nums = [1,4,3,2]
Output:
 4
Explanation:
 All possible pairings (ignoring the ordering of elements) are:
1. (1, 4), (2, 3) -> min(1, 4) + min(2, 3) = 1 + 2 = 3
2. (1, 3), (2, 4) -> min(1, 3) + min(2, 4) = 1 + 2 = 3
3. (1, 2), (3, 4) -> min(1, 2) + min(3, 4) = 1 + 3 = 4
So the maximum possible sum is 4.

Example 2:

Input: nums = [6,2,6,5,1,2]
Output:
 9
Explanation:
 The optimal pairing is (2, 1), (2, 5), (6, 6). min(2, 1) + min(2, 5) + min(6, 6) = 1 + 2 + 6 = 9.

Constraints:

  • 1 <= n <= 104

  • nums.length == 2 * n

  • -104 <= nums[i] <= 104

解題

func arrayPairSum(nums []int) int {
    sort.Ints(nums)
    res := 0
    for i, num := range nums {
        if i % 2 == 0 {
            res += num
        }
    }   

    return res
}
