Solution: Boats to Save People
Explore how to apply greedy algorithms to minimize the number of boats needed to rescue people based on their weights and boat limits. Understand how sorting the weights and using two-pointer techniques help efficiently pair individuals, while evaluating time and space complexity for this optimization problem.
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 ...
