I am getting time limit error

I made some changes in your code… all the changes are in while loop of binary search… please have a look.

#include
#include
using namespace std;
bool isPossible(int page[100],int n,int m,int mid){

int studentUsed=1;
int pages_reading=0;
for(int i=0; i<n; i++){
	
	if(pages_reading+page[i]>mid){
		studentUsed++;

		pages_reading=page[i];
		if(studentUsed>m){
			return false;
		}
	}
	else{
		pages_reading+=page[i];
	}
}
return true;

}

int main(){

int t;
cin>>t;
for(int i=0; i<t; i++){
	int n,m;
	int sum=0;
	cin>>n>>m;
	int page[100];
	for(int j=0; j<n;j++){
		cin>>page[j];
	}
	sum=accumulate(page, page+n, sum);
	int s=page[n-1];
	int e=sum;
	int ans=1000000;
	while(s<=e){
		
		int mid=(s+e)/2;
		if(isPossible(page,n,m,mid)){
			ans=min(ans,mid);
			e=mid-1;
		}
		else{
			s=mid+1;
		}
	}
	
	cout<<ans<<endl;
}

return 0;

}

thanks

Now all test case are failed.

#4

have you changed s=page[n-1], ans = 1000000, mid = (s+e)/2…
moreover there is no need of ans = min(ans,mid), just write ans = mid;

thanks
