关小刷刷题 24——Leetcode 121. Best Time to Buy and Sell Stock

题目

Say you have an array for which the ith element is the price of a given stock on day i.

If you were only permitted to complete at most one transaction (ie, buy one and sell one share of the stock), design an algorithm to find the maximum profit.

Example 1: Input: [7, 1, 5, 3, 6, 4] Output: 5

max. difference = 6-1 = 5 (not 7-1 = 6, as selling price needs to be larger than buying price) Example 2: Input: [7, 6, 4, 3, 1] Output: 0

In this case, no transaction is done, i.e. max profit = 0.

题目的意思是给定一个数组，各元素值代表当天的股价，要求最多进行一次交易：买一次股票，卖一次股票，求可以获得的最大收益。

思路

思路：题目的意思是求max(nums[j]-nums[i])，要求j>i。从头至尾遍历一次数组，不断对当前的最小值和当前的最大利润做更新。时间复杂度O(n).

class Solution {public:
    int maxProfit(vector<int>& prices) {
        if(prices.empty()|| prices.size()==1)
            return 0;
        int curmin=prices[0], profit=0;
        for(int i=1; i<prices.size(); i++)
        {
            if(prices[i]<curmin)
                curmin=prices[i];
            if(prices[i]-curmin>profit)
                profit=prices[i]-curmin;
        }
        return profit;
