Leetcode 1167: Minimum Cost to Connect Sticks

You have some number of sticks with positive integer lengths. These lengths are given as an array sticks, where sticks[i] is the length of the ith stick. You can connect any two sticks of lengths x and y into one stick by paying a cost of x + y. You must connect all the sticks until there is only one stick remaining. Return the minimum cost of connecting ...

Leetcode 1834: Single-Threaded CPU

You are given n​​​​​​ tasks labeled from 0 to n - 1 represented by a 2D integer array tasks, where tasks[i] = [enqueueTimei, processingTimei] means that the i​​​​​​th​​​​ task will be available to process at enqueueTimei and will take processingTimeito finish processing. You have a single-threaded CPU that can process at most one task at a time and will act in the following way: If the CPU is idle ...
