2578. Split With Minimum Sum

Description

Given a positive integer num, split it into two non-negative integers num1 and num2 such that:

  • The concatenation of num1 and num2 is a permutation of num.
    • In other words, the sum of the number of occurrences of each digit in num1 and num2 is equal to the number of occurrences of that digit in num.
  • num1 and num2 can contain leading zeros.

Return the minimum possible sum of num1 and num2.

Notes:

  • It is guaranteed that num does not contain any leading zeros.
  • The order of occurrence of the digits in num1 and num2 may differ from the order of occurrence of num.

 

Example 1:

Input: num = 4325
Output: 59
Explanation: We can split 4325 so that num1 is 24 and num2 is 35, giving a sum of 59. We can prove that 59 is indeed the minimal possible sum.

Example 2:

Input: num = 687
Output: 75
Explanation: We can split 687 so that num1 is 68 and num2 is 7, which would give an optimal sum of 75.

 

Constraints:

  • 10 <= num <= 109

Solutions

Solution 1: Counting + Greedy

First, we use a hash table or array $cnt$ to count the occurrences of each digit in $num$, and use a variable $n$ to record the number of digits in $num$.

Next, we enumerate all the digits $i$ in $nums$, and alternately allocate the digits in $cnt$ to $num1$ and $num2$ in ascending order, recording them in an array $ans$ of length $2$. Finally, we return the sum of the two numbers in $ans$.

The time complexity is $O(n)$, and the space complexity is $O(C)$. Where $n$ is the number of digits in $num$; and $C$ is the number of different digits in $num$, in this problem, $C \leq 10$.

        }

        ans[0] + ans[1]
    }
}

Solution 2: Sorting + Greedy

We can convert $num$ to a string or character array, then sort it, and then alternately allocate the digits in the sorted array to $num1$ and $num2$ in ascending order. Finally, we return the sum of $num1$ and $num2$.

The time complexity is $O(n \times \log n)$, and the space complexity is $O(n)$. Where $n$ is the number of digits in $num$.
