Pair of roses Coding problem

#1


I am getting correct answer for the sample input as well as some of the inputs I tried.
It is giving wrong answer on submission and I’m unable to figure out what is the problem in it. Please help me in the error

@mvermav19 your code seems fine but this for loop is not required
if (price[i] + price[j] == balance){
for (int a = 0; a < N; a++){
int min = INT_MIN;
if ((price[j] - price[i]) > min){
mini = i;
minj = j;
}
i++;
j–;}

instead you should do this
long long diff=1000000000;
while(i<j)
if(price[i] + price[j] == balance){
if(diff >= arr[j] - arr[i]){
mini=i;
minj=j;
diff=arr[j]-arr[I];
}
i++;
j–;
}
This edit should do the work

@mvermav19 there are two more edits

  1. there is a fullstop in line Deepak should buy roses whose prices are 40 and 40**.** notice this full stop after the statement but your code miss this full stop.
    code should be
    cout << “Deepak should buy roses whose prices are " << price[mini] << " and " << price[minj] <<”."<< endl;

  2. value of diff assigned by you is little less in line int diff = 10000;
    make it long long diff=1000000000;
