[LeetCode]Candy

There are N children standing in a line. Each child is assigned a rating value.

You are giving candies to these children subjected to the following requirements:

• Each child must have at least one candy.
• Children with a higher rating get more candies than their neighbors.

What is the minimum candies you must give?

分别从前往后，再从后往前 遍历，关键是max中的表达式

public class Solution {
    public int candy(int[] ratings) {
    	int len = ratings.length;
    	int res[] = new int[len];
    	int ret = 0;
        for(int i=1,inc =1;i<len;i++){
        	if(ratings[i-1]<ratings[i]) {
        		res[i] = Math.max(res[i], inc++);
        	}else{
        		inc = 1;
        	}
        }
        for(int i=len-2,inc =1;i>=0;i--){
        	if(ratings[i]>ratings[i+1]){
        		res[i] = Math.max(res[i], inc++);
        	}else{
        		inc = 1;
        	}
        }
        for(int i:res){
        	ret += i;
        }
        return ret+len;
    }
}
