853. Car Fleet
Description
There are n
cars at given miles away from the starting mile 0, traveling to reach the mile target
.
You are given two integer array position
and speed
, both of length n
, where position[i]
is the starting mile of the ith
car and speed[i]
is the speed of the ith
car in miles per hour.
A car cannot pass another car, but it can catch up and then travel next to it at the speed of the slower car.
A car fleet is a car or cars driving next to each other. The speed of the car fleet is the minimum speed of any car in the fleet.
If a car catches up to a car fleet at the mile target
, it will still be considered as part of the car fleet.
Return the number of car fleets that will arrive at the destination.
Example 1:
Input: target = 12, position = [10,8,0,5,3], speed = [2,4,1,1,3]
Output: 3
Explanation:
- The cars starting at 10 (speed 2) and 8 (speed 4) become a fleet, meeting each other at 12. The fleet forms at
target
. - The car starting at 0 (speed 1) does not catch up to any other car, so it is a fleet by itself.
- The cars starting at 5 (speed 1) and 3 (speed 3) become a fleet, meeting each other at 6. The fleet moves at speed 1 until it reaches
target
.
Example 2:
Input: target = 10, position = [3], speed = [3]
Output: 1
Explanation:
There is only one car, hence there is only one fleet.Example 3:
Input: target = 100, position = [0,2,4], speed = [4,2,1]
Output: 1
Explanation:
- The cars starting at 0 (speed 4) and 2 (speed 2) become a fleet, meeting each other at 4. The car starting at 4 (speed 1) travels to 5.
- Then, the fleet at 4 (speed 2) and the car at position 5 (speed 1) become one fleet, meeting each other at 6. The fleet moves at speed 1 until it reaches
target
.
Constraints:
n == position.length == speed.length
1 <= n <= 105
0 < target <= 106
0 <= position[i] < target
- All the values of
position
are unique. 0 < speed[i] <= 106
