1732. Find the Highest Altitude
There is a biker going on a road trip. The road trip consists of
n + 1points at different altitudes. The biker starts his trip on point0with altitude equal0.You are given an integer array
gainof lengthnwheregain[i]is the net gain in altitude between pointsi andi + 1for all (0 <= i < n). Return the highest altitude of a point.Example 1:
Input: gain = [-5,1,5,0,-7]
Output: 1
Explanation: The altitudes are [0,-5,-4,1,1,-6]. The highest is 1.Example 2:
Input: gain = [-4,-3,-2,-1,4,3,2]
Output: 0
Explanation: The altitudes are [0,-4,-7,-9,-10,-6,-3,-1]. The highest is 0.
def largestAltitude(self, gain: List[int]) -> int:
gaincalc = 0
highest = 0
for i in gain:
gaincalc += i
if gaincalc > highest:
highest = gaincalc
return highest
