Trapping Rain Water(Leet Code Problem)
Input: height = [0,1,0,2,1,0,1,3,2,1,2,1]
Output: 6
Explanation: The above elevation map (black section) is represented by array [0,1,0,2,1,0,1,3,2,1,2,1]. In this case, 6 units of rain water (blue section) are being trapped.
Input: height = [4,2,0,3,2,5]
Output: 9
Constraints:
n == height.length
1 <= n <= 2 * 104
0 <= height[i] <= 105
Following is sample python code.
def trap(height):
n = len(height)
left = 0
right = n - 1
left_max = right_max = trapped_water = 0
while left < right:
if height[left] < height[right]:
if height[left] >= left_max:
left_max = height[left]
else:
trapped_water += left_max - height[left]
left += 1
else:
if height[right] >= right_max:
right_max = height[right]
else:
trapped_water += right_max - height[right]
right -= 1
return trapped_water
height = [4, 2, 0, 3, 2, 5]
print(trap(height))
