Solution: Boats to Save People
Discover how to apply the greedy pattern to solve the problem of minimizing boats to save people by pairing the heaviest and lightest within a weight limit. Understand the algorithm, time complexity, and implementation steps to optimize evacuation strategies.
Statement
A big ship with numerous passengers is sinking, and there is a need to evacuate these people with the minimum number of life-saving boats. Each boat can carry, at most, two persons however, the weight of the people cannot exceed the carrying weight limit of the boat.
We are given an array, people, where people[i] is the weight of the ...
