# Task 1: Kill and Win # Submitted by: Mohammad S Anwar # # You are given a list of integers. # # Write a script to get the maximum points. You are allowed to take out (kill) any integer and remove from the list. However if you do that then all integers exactly one-less or one-more would also be removed. Find out the total of integers removed. # # Example 1 # Input: @int = (2, 3, 1) # Output: 6 # # First we delete 2 and that would also delete 1 and 3. So the maximum points we get is 6. # # Example 2 # Input: @int = (1, 1, 2, 2, 2, 3) # Output: 11 # # First we delete 2 and that would also delete both the 1's and the 3. Now we have (2, 2). # Then we delete another 2 and followed by the third deletion of 2. So the maximum points we get is 11. def main(input) if input.length < 1 \ or \ input.select{ |i| i[/\D/] }.length > 0 then puts "Input error" exit(0) end sum = 0 input.each { |i| sum += i.to_i } puts sum end main ARGV
