Amazon Online Assessment (OA) - Minimum Difficulty of a Job Schedule
You want to schedule a list of jobs in d days. Jobs are dependent (i.e To work on the ith job, you have to finish all the jobs j where 0 <= j < i).
You have to finish at least one task every day. The difficulty of a job schedule is the sum of difficulties of each day of the d days. The difficulty of a day is the maximum difficulty of a job done in that day.
Given an array of integers jobDifficulty and an integer d. The difficulty of the ith job is jobDifficulty[i].
Return the minimum difficulty of a job schedule. If you cannot find a schedule for the jobs return -1.
Example 1:
Input: jobDifficulty = [6,5,4,3,2,1], d = 2
Output: 7
Explanation:
First day you can finispremh the first 5 jobs, total difficulty = 6.
Second day you can finish the last job, total difficulty = 1.
The difficulty of the schedule = 6 + 1 = 7
Example 2:
Input: jobDifficulty = [9,9,9], d = 4
Output: -1
Explanation:
If you finish a job per day you will still have a free day. you cannot find a schedule for the given jobs.
Example 3:
Input: jobDifficulty = [1,1,1], d = 3
Output: 3
Explanation:
The schedule is one job per day. total difficulty will be 3.
Example 4:
Input: jobDifficulty = [7,1,7,1,7,1], d = 3
Output: 15
Example 5:
Input: jobDifficulty = [11,111,22,222,33,333,44,444], d = 6
Output: 843
Constraints:
1 <= jobDifficulty.length <= 3000 <= jobDifficulty[i] <= 10001 <= d <= 10
