Decreasing Perimeter

CodeChefRating 2508Open on judge ↗

You are given an array $A$ of size $N$ and an integer $K$. In one operation, you may select an integer $1 \leq i \leq N$ and increase $A_i$ by $1$. After performing all operations, create a bar graph-like shape as follows: - First, add a rectangle with width $1$ and height $A_1$ bounded by $x=0, x=1, y=0, y=A_1$. - For each $2 \leq i \leq N$, append a $1\times A_i$ rectangle to the right of t
