Given a specific rectangular web page’s area, your job by now is to design a rectangular web page, whose length L and width W satisfy the following requirements:
1 2 3 4 5 |
1. The area of the rectangular web page you designed must equal to the given target area. 2. The width W should not be larger than the length L, which means L >= W. 3. The difference between length L and width W should be as small as possible. |
You need to output the length L and the width W of the web page you designed in sequence.
Example:
1 2 3 4 |
Input: 4 Output: [2, 2] Explanation: The target area is 4, and all the possible ways to construct it are [1,4], [2,2], [4,1]. But according to requirement 2, [1,4] is illegal; according to requirement 3, [4,1] is not optimal compared to [2,2]. So the length L is 2, and the width W is 2. |
Note:
- The given area won’t exceed 10,000,000 and is a positive integer
- The web page’s width and length you designed must be positive integers.
Solution
According to the requirement 3 difference between L and W should be as small as possible. That is why we will start with the square-root of the area.
1 2 3 4 5 6 7 |
public int[] constructRectangle(int area) { int width = (int)Math.sqrt(area); while (area % width != 0) { width--; } return new int[]{area/width , width}; } |
