1954. Minimum Garden Perimeter to Collect Enough Apples

https://leetcode.com/problems/minimum-garden-perimeter-to-collect-enough-apples

Description

In a garden represented as an infinite 2D grid, there is an apple tree planted at every integer coordinate. The apple tree planted at an integer coordinate (i, j) has |i| + |j| apples growing on it.

You will buy an axis-aligned square plot of land that is centered at (0, 0).

Given an integer neededApples, return the minimum perimeter of a plot such that at leastneededApples apples are inside or on the perimeter of that plot.

The value of |x| is defined as:

  • x if x >= 0

  • -x if x < 0

Example 1:

Example 2:

Example 3:

Constraints:

  • 1 <= neededApples <= 1015
