279. Perfect Squares

标签：

题目：

Given a positive integer n, find the least number of perfect square numbers (for example, 1, 4, 9, 16, ...) which sum to n.

For example, given n = 12, return 3 because 12 = 4 + 4 + 4; given n = 13, return 2 because 13 = 4 + 9.

题解：

又是数学题，每次一看jianchao.li.fighter添加的题目，就知道跟数字有关系。数学不好的我，做起来真的很头大....这道题看了discuss以后发现有好多种方法，有dp, BFS，还有纯数学解法。下面是最简单的dp，核心的递推公式是对于j= 1 , j * j <= i来说， tmp = Math.min(tmp, tmp[i - j * j] + 1);

Time Complexity - O(nlogn)， Space Complexity - O(n)

public class Solution {
    public int numSquares(int n) {
        if(n < 1) {
            return 0;
        }
        int[] min = new int[n + 1];
        
        for(int i = 1; i <= n; i++) {
            int tmp = Integer.MAX_VALUE;
            for(int j = 1; j * j <= i; j++) {
                tmp = Math.min(tmp, min[i - j * j] + 1);
            }
            min[i] = tmp;
        }
        
        return min[n];
    }
}

题外话：

最近似乎丧失了独立思考的能力，每次做题想了5分钟就不耐烦去看Discuss的答案了。这样可不行，需要锻炼的不是记题背题，而是自己的思维。真是懒惰到家了。
