In this HackerRank Marc’s Cakewalk problem solution we have given the individual calorie counts for each of the cupcakes, determine the minimum number of miles Marc must walk to maintain his weight. Note that he can eat the cupcakes in any order.
Problem solution in Python.
#!/bin/python3 import sys n = int(input().strip()) cal = list(map(int, input().strip().split(' '))) # your code goes here cal.sort() cal.reverse() miles=0 for i in range(n): cup=cal[i]*(2**i) miles+=cup print(miles)

Problem solution in C++.
#include <bits/stdc++.h> using namespace std; int main(){ int n; cin >> n; vector<int> calories(n); for(int calories_i = 0; calories_i < n; calories_i++){ cin >> calories[calories_i]; } // your code goes here sort(calories.begin(),calories.end()); reverse(calories.begin(),calories.end()); long long temp=1,ans=0; for(int i=0;i<n;i++) { ans+=calories[i]*temp; temp*=2; } printf("%lldn",ans); return 0; }
