Problem E
Open Credit System
Input: Standard Input
Output: Standard Output
In an open credit system, the students can choose any course they like, but there is a problem. Some of the students are more senior than other students. The professor of such a course has found quite a number of such students who came from senior classes (as if they came to attend the pre requisite course after passing an advanced course). But he wants to do justice to the new students. So, he is going to take a placement test (basically an IQ test) to assess the level of difference among the students. He wants to know the maximum amount of score that a senior student gets more than any junior student. For example, if a senior student gets 80 and a junior student gets 70, then this amount is 10. Be careful that we don‘t want the absolute value. Help the professor to figure out a solution.
Input
Input consists of a number of test cases T (less than 20). Each case starts with an integer n which is the number of students in the course. This value can be as large as 100,000 and as low as 2. Next n lines contain n integers where the i‘th integer
is the score of the i‘th student. All these integers have absolute values less than 150000. If i < j, then i‘th student is senior to the j‘th student.
Output
For each test case, output the desired number in a new line. Follow the format shown in sample input-output section.
3 2 100 20 4 4 3 2 1 4 1 2 3 4 |

【思路一】
最简单的一种就是二重循环。但是Time limit exceeded。 这种算法的时间复杂度为O(n^2)。在n 很大规模的时候就无能为力了。
【思路二】
对于每个固定的j,我们应该选择的是小于j且Ai最大的i,而和Aj的具体数值无关。这样,我们从小到大枚举j,顺便维护Ai的最大值即可。时间复杂度降为O(n)
