Optimal Game Strategy 1

#1

Sir, can you please help he find out what could be the error in my code ?
Code ide : https://ide.codingblocks.com/s/188272

#2

line no 16
it should be the following statment:
int b = arr[j] + Math.min(solve(i,j-2),solve(i+1,j-1));
it was incorrectly written as
int b = arr[j] + Math.min(solve(i,j-1),solve(i+1,j-1));

#3

Still I can’t pass test case 1

#4

comment out the following line of code
// if(i==j-1)
// return Math.max(arr[i],arr[j-1]);

#5
#6

It worked. But why did we commented that part ?

#7

u see u are compariing if i == j-1 and then returning max of a[i] a[j-1] wont they be the same thing,
it is not the base condition try to dry run u`ll understand better
