You are given an integer array height
of length n
. There are n
vertical lines drawn such that the two endpoints of the ith
line are (i, 0)
and (i, height[i])
.
Find two lines that together with the x-axis form a container, such that the container contains the most water.
Return the maximum amount of water a container can store.
Notice that you may not slant the container.
Example 1:
Input: height = [1,8,6,2,5,4,8,3,7] Output: 49 Explanation: The above vertical lines are represented by array [1,8,6,2,5,4,8,3,7]. In this case, the max area of water (blue section) the container can contain is 49.
Example 2:
Input: height = [1,1] Output: 1
Constraints:
n == height.length
2 <= n <= 105
0 <= height[i] <= 104
Python
from typing import List
class Solution:
def maxArea(self, height: List[int]) -> int:
maxSum = 0
left, right = 0, len(height) - 1
while left < right:
maxSum = max(maxSum, (right - left) *
min(height[left], height[right]))
if height[left] < height[right]:
left += 1
else:
right -= 1
return maxSum
Height = [1, 8, 6, 2, 5, 4, 8, 3, 7]
print(Solution().maxArea(Height))
