Title description
Given n points, each point has a coordinate xi. Some of these points are white points and others are black points. Find the length of the longest line segment that meets the following two conditions.
Condition 1: the left and right endpoints of the line segment All must be in the given n points
Condition 2: In the given n points, the number of black points in the points contained by this line segment must be equal to the number of white points (including the left and right endpoints)
Input
Line 1: An integer n
Line 2 ... n + 1 Line: An integer xi per line, indicating the coordinates of the point, and a character ('G' for black dots, 'H' for white dots), separated by spaces ,
Output
One number per line, the length of the longest line segment
Sample input
6
4 G
10 H
7 G
16 G
1 G
3 H
Sample output
7
Data range limitation
• For 30% of the data, n <= 10 3 .
• For 100% data, n <= 10 5 , 1 <= xi <= 10 9 .
analysis
Obvious prefix sum! The black point is 1, and the white point is -1. If the sum is 0, it is a legal solution.
How to update the middle one?
In fact, just delete a paragraph so that the current point is 0.
Further reasoning: The statistical prefix and the place where it first appeared can be.
(I actually feel like this question is the longest balanced sequence)
