The problem
You are given a 0-indexed 2D integer array peaks where peaks[i] = [xi, yi] states that mountain i has a peak at coordinates (xi, yi). A mountain can be described as a right-angled isosceles triangle, with its base along the x-axis and a right angle at its peak.
Example
- Input
- peaks = [[2,2],[6,3],[5,4]]
- Output
- 2
- Explanation
- The diagram above shows the mountains.
Python solution
class Solution:
def visibleMountains(self, peaks: List[List[int]]) -> int:
arr = [(x - y, x + y) for x, y in peaks]
cnt = Counter(arr)
arr.sort(key=lambda x: (x[0], -x[1]))
ans, cur = 0, -inf
for l, r in arr:
if r <= cur:
continue
cur = r
if cnt[(l, r)] == 1:
ans += 1
return ansComplexity
