# 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 least***`neededApples` *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:**

```
**Input:** neededApples = 1
**Output:** 8
**Explanation:** A square plot of side length 1 does not contain any apples.
However, a square plot of side length 2 has 12 apples inside (as depicted in the image above).
The perimeter is 2 * 4 = 8.
```

**Example 2:**

```
**Input:** neededApples = 13
**Output:** 16
```

**Example 3:**

```
**Input:** neededApples = 1000000000
**Output:** 5040
```

**Constraints:**

* `1 <= neededApples <= 1015`
