Maximum pair sum such that their digit sum are equal and divisible by K

View Discussion Improve Article Save Article Like Article View Discussion Improve Article Save Article Like Article Given a positive integer array arr of size N (1 ≤ N ≤ 105) and a positive integer K, the task is to find the maximum value of arr + arr by choosing two indices i and j, such that i != j, and the sum of digits of the element at arr should be equal to arr and are divisible by K.Examples:Input: arr = Output: 54Explanation:The pairs (i, j) that satisfy the conditions are:Index (0, 2), both numbers have a…

Minimum cost to make Array equal by increment/decrementing elements

Given an array, arr, and the cost array cost, the task is to find the minimum cost to make all the array elements equal by incrementing or decrementing the element at any index by 1. The cost of the increment or decrement operation for the element at index i is the cost.Examples:Input: arr = {1, 3, 5, 2}, cost = {2, 3, 1, 14}Output: 8Explanation: On making all elements equal to 2 the cost is 1*2 + 1*3 + 3*1 = 8 which is the minimum cost.Input: arr = {3, 3, 3, 3, 3}, cost = {1, 2, 3, 4, 5}Output: 0Explanation: All are same…

The Banshees of Inisherin review: A Martin McDonagh film equal to In Bruges – if not better

Dir: Martin McDonagh. Starring: Colin Farrell, Brendan Gleeson, Kerry Condon, Barry Keoghan. 15, 114 minutes.Violence always bursts forth from the pen of Martin McDonagh. The British-Irish director and playwright has spent decades larking about in the realm of angry, impotent men – whether it’s The Lieutenant of Inishmore (2001) or In Bruges (2008). But The Banshees of Inisherin, which reunites his In Bruges stars Colin Farrell and Brendan Gleeson, may contain the most exquisitely McDonagh-ish image of them all. Gleeson’s…

European Union and U.S. officials expect to reach an agreement that would grant EU companies, including electric car makers, the same status as U.S. ones in the U.S. market, to avoid what the EU calls discrimination against its producers by the U.S. Inflation Reduction Act. The EU says that while it allows government tax breaks or subsidies for purchases of U.S. electric cars such as those made by Tesla, the United States makes such support conditional on the car, or parts of it, being made in the United States. European…
