Russian Doll Envelopes
You are given a 2D array of integers envelopes where envelopes[i] = [wi, hi] represents the width and the height of an envelope.
One envelope can fit into another if and only if both the width and height of one envelope are greater than the other envelope's width and height.
Return the maximum number of envelopes you can Russian doll (i.e., put one inside the other).
Note: You cannot rotate an envelope.
public int maxEnvelopes(int[][] envelopes) {
if(envelopes == null || envelopes.length == 0
|| envelopes[0] == null || envelopes[0].length != 2)
return 0;
Arrays.sort(envelopes, new Comparator<int[]>(){
public int compare(int[] arr1, int[] arr2){
if(arr1[0] == arr2[0])
return arr2[1] - arr1[1];
else
return arr1[0] - arr2[0];
}
});
int dp[] = new int[envelopes.length];
int len = 0;
for(int[] envelope : envelopes){
int index = Arrays.binarySearch(dp, 0, len, envelope[1]);
if(index < 0)
index = -(index + 1);
dp[index] = envelope[1];
if(index == len)
len++;
}
return len;

Given n non-negative integers representing an elevation map where the width of each bar is 1, compute how much water it can trap after raining.
You are given n balloons, indexed from 0 to n - 1. Each balloon is painted with a number on it represented by an array nums. You are asked to burst all the balloons.
If you burst the ith balloon, you will get nums[i - 1] * nums[i] * nums[i + 1] coins. If i - 1 or i + 1 goes out of bounds of the array, then treat it as if there is a balloon with a 1 painted on it.
Return the maximum coins you can collect by bursting the balloons wisely.

You are given an integer array prices where prices[i] is the price of a given stock on the ith day, and an integer k.
Find the maximum profit you can achieve. You may complete at most k transactions: i.e. you may buy at most k times and sell at most k times.
Note: You may not engage in multiple transactions simultaneously (i.e., you must sell the stock before you buy again).
