910. Smallest Range II

题目

Given an array A of integers, for each integer A[i] we need to choose either x = -K or x = K, and add x to A[i] (only once).

After this process, we have some array B.

Return the smallest possible difference between the maximum value of B and the minimum value of B.

Example 1:

Input: A = [1], K = 0
Output: 0
Explanation: B = [1]

Example 2:

Input: A = [0,10], K = 2
Output: 6
Explanation: B = [2,8]

Example 3:

Input: A = [1,3,6], K = 3
Output: 3
Explanation: B = [4,6,3]

Note:

  1. 1 <= A.length <= 10000
  2. 0 <= A[i] <= 10000
  3. 0 <= K <= 10000

题目大意

给你一个整数数组 A,对于每个整数 A[i],可以选择 x = -K 或是 x = K (K 总是非负整数),并将 x 加到 A[i] 中。在此过程之后,得到数组 B。返回 B 的最大值和 B 的最小值之间可能存在的最小差值。

解题思路

  • 简单题。先排序,找出 A 数组中最大的差值。然后循环扫一遍数组,利用双指针,选择 x = -K 或是 x = K ,每次选择都更新一次最大值和最小值之间的最小差值。循环一次以后便可以找到满足题意的答案。
