题意
示例 1:

示例 2:
输入: [1,2,2]

思路:贪心算法
public class Solution {
public int candy(int[] ratings) {
int n = ratings.length;
int[] candies = new int[n];
for (int i = 0; i < n; i++) {
candies[i] = 1; //每人至少发一颗糖
}
for(int i = 1; i < n; i++){ //从前往后遍历ratings数组
if(ratings[i] > ratings[i - 1]){
candies[i] = candies[i - 1] + 1;
}
}
for(int i = n - 2; i >= 0; i--){ //从后往前遍历ratings数组
if(ratings[i] > ratings[i + 1] && candies[i] <= candies[i + 1]){
candies[i] = candies[i + 1] + 1;
}
}
int sum = 0;
for (int i = 0; i < n; i++) {
sum += candies[i];
}
return sum;
}
}
