problem number 1
well err?.. i don't like to ask for help with homeworks but i really don't know how to solve this problem..
At the new year's eve concert the first 2 rows are reserved to the officials. Both rows are formed from the same number of chairs S. The chairs are numbered from 1 to S, from left to right. There are N official persons who must receive an invitation (let's count them from 1 to N). Each official person comes with a group. let's note with Gi the number of members from i's group (including i, the official). The members of a group must be placed on the same row on consecutive places, or (if the number of members is even) the members of the group can be divided into 2 halves and they can be placed on consecutive places having the same numbers on the 2 rows. Write a program which determines the minimum value of S which forms the 2 rows to arrange all members from the groups according to the rules.
Input data
file in.txt contains on the first line the number N of official persons. on the second line there are N numbers separated by a space = G1, G2 ... Gn where Gi represents the number of members from i's group. (including i)
Output data
write the minimum value of S.. wherever you want...
1<=N<=1000
G1+G2+...+GN<=100000
Example:
file in.txt
4
20 5 3 1
output: 15
