what’s wrong in my code

#2

Hi @Divya_321
You have forgot to take input of array from user. You are passing a empty array that is why your code is showing 0 as output.

#3

This question can simply be solved by adding numbers at odd places and numbers even places and then returning max of both these as n is even so it will yield correct result.

why not it is giving wrong ans
4
1 2 3 4
for above input ans should be 7 so why it is given 6, help

#5

See ans should be 6 only for this case.

4
1 2 3 4

because first person first picks up 4 and then second person picks up 3 and then first person picks up 2 making its total to be 6 and second person picks up 1. So its ans should be 6 only.

why we can pick from any side
first can pick 4 in case 2nd picks 1 and than first has an opportunity to pick 3 , so the ans should be 7, tell me what I am unable to understand ,

#8

see in the question it is mentioned that “Both the players play optimally.” so second player will also pick the largest element present among both the ends
