Generate an N-length array with sum equal to twice the sum of its absolute difference with same-indexed elements of given array

Given an array arr[] of size N, the task is to construct an array brr[] of size N that satisfies the following conditions:

  • In every pair of consecutive elements in the array brr[], one element must be divisible by the other, i.e. brr[i] must be divisible by brr[i + 1] or vice-versa.
  • Every ith element in the array brr[] must satisfy brr[i] >= arr[i] / 2.
  • The sum of elements of the array arr[] must be greater than or equal to 2 * ?abs(arr[i] – brr[i]).

Examples:

Input: arr[] = { 11, 5, 7, 3, 2 } 
Output: 8 4 4 2 2 
Explanation: 
abs(11 – 8) + abs(5 – 4) + abs(7 – 4) + abs(3 – 2) + abs(2 – 2) = 8 
arr[0] + arr[1] + … + arr[4] = 28 
2 * 8 <= 28 and for every ith element brr[i] >= arr[i] / 2. 
Therefore, one of the possible values of brr[] are 8 4 4 2 2.

Input: arr[] = { 11, 7, 5 } 
Output: { 8, 4, 4 }

Approach: The idea is based on the following observation:

If brr[i] is the nearest power of 2 and is smaller than or equal to arr[i], then brr[i] must be greater than or equal to arr[i] / 2 and also the sum of elements of the array, arr[] must be greater than or equal to 2 * ?abs(arr[i] – brr[i]).

Follow the steps below to solve the problem:

Below is the implementation of the above approach:

C++




// C++ program for the above approach
 
#include <bits/stdc++.h>
using namespace std;
 
// Function to construct an array
// with given conditions
void constructArray(int arr[], int N)
{
    int brr[N] = { 0 };
 
    // Traverse the array arr[]
    for (int i = 0; i < N; i++) {
 
        int K = log(arr[i]) / log(2);
 
        // Stores closest power of 2
        // less than or equal to arr[i]
        int R = pow(2, K);
 
        // Stores R into brr[i]
        brr[i] = R;
    }
 
    // Print array elements
    for (int i = 0; i < N; i++) {
        cout << brr[i] << " ";
    }
}
 
// Driver Code
int main()
{
 
    // Given array
    int arr[] = { 11, 5, 7, 3, 2 };
 
    // Size of the array
    int N = sizeof(arr) / sizeof(arr[0]);
 
    // Function Call
    constructArray(arr, N);
 
    return 0;
}


Java




// Java program for the above approach
import java.util.*;
 
class GFG{
 
// Function to construct an array
// with given conditions
static void constructArray(int arr[], int N)
{
    int brr[] = new int[N];
     
    // Traverse the array arr[]
    for(int i = 0; i < N; i++)
    {
        int K = (int)(Math.log(arr[i]) /
                      Math.log(2));
         
        // Stores closest power of 2
        // less than or equal to arr[i]
        int R = (int)Math.pow(2, K);
         
        // Stores R into brr[i]
        brr[i] = R;
    }
     
    // Print array elements
    for(int i = 0; i < N; i++)
    {
        System.out.print(brr[i] + " ");
    }
}
 
// Driver Code
public static void main(String[] args)
{
     
    // Given array
    int arr[] = { 11, 5, 7, 3, 2 };
 
    // Size of the array
    int N = arr.length;
 
    // Function Call
    constructArray(arr, N);
}
}
