Distributing items when a person cannot take more than two items of same type

Given N sweets, which can be of many different types, and k customers, one customer won’t make the same type of sweet more than 2 pieces, the task is to find if it is possible to distribute all, then print “Yes” or otherwise “No”.
Given an array, arr[] represents an array of sweets. arr[i] is type of sweet.

Examples:  

Input : arr[] = {1, 1, 2, 3, 1}, 
            k = 2;
Output : Yes
There are three pieces of sweet type 1,
one piece of type 2 and one piece of 
type 3. Two customers can distribute 
sweets under given constraints.

Input : arr[] = {2, 3, 3, 5, 3, 3}, 
            k = 2;
Output : Yes

Input : arr[] = {2, 3, 3, 5, 3, 3, 3}, 
            k = 2;
Output : No 
Recommended Practice

Method 1: 

  1. Traverse array for each element. 
  2. Count occurrences of each element in the array 
  3. Check if the result of each element must be less than or equal to 2*k. 

Implementation:

C++




// C++ program for above implementation
#include <bits/stdc++.h>
using namespace std;
 
// Function to check occurrence of each element
bool checkCount(int arr[], int n, int k)
{
    int count;
 
    // Start traversing the elements
    for (int i = 0; i < n; i++) {
 
        // Count occurrences of current element
        count = 0;
        for (int j = 0; j < n; j++) {
            if (arr[j] == arr[i])
                count++;
 
            // If count of any element is greater
            // than 2*k then return false
            if (count > 2 * k)
                return false;
        }
    }
 
    return true;
}
 
// Drivers code
int main()
{
    int arr[] = { 1, 1, 2, 3, 1 };
    int n = sizeof(arr) / sizeof(arr[0]);
    int k = 2;
    checkCount(arr, n, k) ? cout << "Yes"
                           : cout << "No";
 
    return 0;
}


Java




// java program for above implementation
import java.io.*;
 
public class GFG {
     
    // Function to check occurrence of
    // each element
    static boolean checkCount(int []arr,
                            int n, int k)
    {
        int count;
     
        // Start traversing the elements
        for (int i = 0; i < n; i++)
        {
     
            // Count occurrences of
            // current element
            count = 0;
            for (int j = 0; j < n; j++)
            {
                if (arr[j] == arr[i])
                    count++;
     
                // If count of any element
                // is greater than 2*k then
                // return false
                if (count > 2 * k)
                    return false;
            }
        }
     
        return true;
    }
     
    // Drivers code
    static public void main (String[] args)
    {
        int []arr = { 1, 1, 2, 3, 1 };
        int n = arr.length;
        int k = 2;
         
        if(checkCount(arr, n, k))
            System.out.println("Yes");
        else
            System.out.println("No");
    }
}

# Function to check occurrence
# of each element
def checkCount(arr, n, k):
 
    # Start traversing the elements
    for i in range(n):
 
        # Count occurrences of
        # current element
        count = 0
        for j in range(n):
            if arr[j] == arr[i]:
                count += 1
 
            # If count of any element is greater
            # than 2*k then return false
            if count > 2 * k:
                return False
    return True
 
# Driver code
arr = [1, 1, 2, 3, 1]

hash[arr[i]] <= 2*k.
