Maximum Elegance of a K-Length Subsequence
You are given a 0-indexed 2D integer array items of length n and an integer k.
You are given a 0-indexed 2D integer array items of length n and an integer k.
items[i] = [profiti, categoryi], where profiti and categoryi denote the profit and category of the ith item respectively.
Let's define the elegance of a subsequence of items as total_profit + distinct_categories2, where total_profit is the sum of all profits in the subsequence, and distinct_categories is the number of distinct categories from all the categories in the selected subsequence.
Your task is to find the maximum elegance from all subsequences of size k in items.
Return an integer denoting the maximum elegance of a subsequence of items with size exactly k.
Note: A subsequence of an array is a new array generated from the original array by deleting some elements (possibly none) without changing the remaining elements' relative order.
Example 1
Input: items = [[3,2],[5,1],[10,1]], k = 2
Output: 17
Explanation: In this example, we have to select a subsequence of size 2. We can select items[0] = [3,2] and items[2] = [10,1]. The total profit in this subsequence is 3 + 10 = 13, and the subsequence contains 2 distinct categories [2,1]. Hence, the elegance is 13 + 22 = 17, and we can show that it is the maximum achievable elegance.
Example 2
Input: items = [[3,1],[3,1],[2,2],[5,3]], k = 3
Output: 19
Explanation: In this example, we have to select a subsequence of size 3. We can select items[0] = [3,1], items[2] = [2,2], and items[3] = [5,3]. The total profit in this subsequence is 3 + 2 + 5 = 10, and the subsequence contains 3 distinct categories [1,2,3]. Hence, the elegance is 10 + 32 = 19, and we can show that it is the maximum achievable elegance.
Example 3
Input: items = [[1,1],[2,1],[3,1]], k = 3
Output: 7
Explanation: In this example, we have to select a subsequence of size 3. We should select all the items. The total profit will be 1 + 2 + 3 = 6, and the subsequence contains 1 distinct category [1]. Hence, the maximum elegance is 6 + 12 = 7.
Constraints
