Given a large number as string s and an integer k which denotes the number of breakpoints we must put in the number k <= string length. The task is to find maximum segment value after putting exactly k breakpoints.
Examples:
Input : s = "8754", k = 2 Output : Maximum number = 87 Explanation : We need to two breakpoints. After putting the breakpoints, we get following options 8 75 4 87 5 4 The maximum segment value is 87. Input : s = "999", k = 1 Output : Maximum Segment Value = 99 Explanation : We need to one breakpoint. After putting the breakpoint, we either get 99,9 or 9,99.
One important observation is, the maximum would always be of length “string-length – k” which is the maximum value of any segment. Considering the fact, problem becomes like sliding window problem means we need to find maximum of all substrings of size (string-length – k).
Implementation:
C++
// CPP program to find the maximum segment// value after putting k breaks.#include <bits/stdc++.h>using namespace std;// Function to Find Maximum Numberint findMaxSegment(string &s, int k) { // Maximum segment length int seg_len = s.length() - k; // Find value of first segment of seg_len int res = 0; for (int i=0; i<seg_len; i++) res = res * 10 + (s[i] - '0'); // Find value of remaining segments using sliding // window int seg_len_pow = pow(10, seg_len-1); int curr_val = res; for (int i = 1; i <= (s.length() - seg_len); i++) { // To find value of current segment, first remove // leading digit from previous value curr_val = curr_val - (s[i-1]- '0')*seg_len_pow; // Then add trailing digit curr_val = curr_val*10 + (s[i+seg_len-1]- '0'); res = max(res, curr_val); } return res;}// Driver's Functionint main() { string s = "8754"; int k = 2; cout << "Maximum number = " << findMaxSegment(s, k); return 0;} |

Output
Maximum number = 87
Time complexity : O(K)
Auxiliary Space : O(1)
