1219. Longest Well-Performing Interval

Medium


We are given hours, a list of the number of hours worked per day for a given employee.

A day is considered to be a tiring day if and only if the number of hours worked is (strictly) greater than 8.

A well-performing interval is an interval of days for which the number of tiring days is strictly larger than the number of non-tiring days.

Return the length of the longest well-performing interval.

 

Example 1:

Input: hours = [9,9,6,0,6,6,9]
Output: 3
Explanation: The longest well-performing interval is [9,9,6].

Example 2:

Input: hours = [6,6,6]
Output: 0

 

Constraints:

  • 1 <= hours.length <= 104
  • 0 <= hours[i] <= 16

Solution

class Solution {
    public int longestWPI(int[] hours) {
        int n = hours.length;
        HashMap<Integer,Integer> map = new HashMap<>();
        int sum = 0,ans = 0;
        for(int i = 0;i< hours.length; i++){
            if (hours[i] <= 8) sum += -1;
            else sum += 1;
            if(sum > 0) ans = i + 1;
            else if(map.containsKey(sum - 1)) ans = Math.max(ans, i - map.get(sum - 1));
            if(!map.containsKey(sum)) map.put(sum, i);
        }
        return ans;
    }
}
