Check if array can be divided into two sub-arrays such that their absolute difference is K

Given an array arr[] and an integer K, the task is to find whether the array can be divided into two sub-arrays such that the absolute difference of the sum of the elements of both the sub-arrays is K.

Examples: 

Input: arr[] = {2, 4, 5, 1}, K = 0 
Output: Yes 
{2, 4} and {5, 1} are the two possible sub-arrays. 
|(2 + 4) – (5 + 1)| = |6 – 6| = 0

Input: arr[] = {2, 4, 1, 5}, K = 2 
Output: No 

Approach:  

  • Assume there exists an answer, let the sum of elements of the sub-array (with smaller sum) is S.
  • Sum of the elements of the second array will be S + K.
  • And, S + S + K must be equal to sum of all the elements of the array say totalSum = 2 *S + K.
  • S = (totalSum – K) / 2
  • Now, traverse the array till we achieve a sum of S starting from the first element and if its not possible then print No.
  • Else print Yes.

Below is the implementation of the above approach:

C++




#include <bits/stdc++.h>
using namespace std;
 
// Function that return true if it is possible
// to divide the array into sub-arrays
// that satisfy the given condition
bool solve(int array[], int size, int k)
{
    // To store the sum of all the elements
    // of the array
    int totalSum = 0;
    for (int i = 0; i < size; i++)
        totalSum += array[i];
 
    // Sum of any sub-array cannot be
    // a floating point value
    if ((totalSum - k) % 2 == 1)
        return false;
 
    // Required sub-array sum
    int S = (totalSum - k) / 2;
 
    int sum = 0;
    for (int i = 0; i < size; i++) {
        sum += array[i];
        if (sum == S)
            return true;
    }
 
    return false;
}
 
// Driver Code
int main()
{
    int array[] = { 2, 4, 1, 5 };
    int k = 2;
    int size = sizeof(array) / sizeof(array[0]);
    if (solve(array, size, k))
        cout << "Yes" << endl;
    else
        cout << "No" << endl;
}

Complexity Analysis:

  • Time Complexity: O(n) where n is the size of the array.
  • Auxiliary Space: O(1)
