Container With Most Water
Container With Most Water
You are given an integer array height of length n. There are n vertical lines drawn such that the two endpoints of the i-th line are (i, 0) and (i, height[i]).
Find two lines that together with the x-axis form a container that holds the most water. Return the maximum amount of water the container can store.
You may not slant the container.
Example
Input: height = [1,8,6,2,5,4,8,3,7]
Output: 49
Explanation: The lines at indices 1 and 8 (heights 8 and 7) form a container with width 7 and minimum height 7, giving area 49.
Constraints
- n == height.length
- 2 <= n <= 10^5
- 0 <= height[i] <= 10^4
Entry — maxArea
Grading — exact over 4 tests
