math-and-geometryProblem URL: Rabbits in forest
We will use a map to store the number of rabbits with the same color. Then, we will iterate through the map. For each color, we will calculate the number of groups. Then, we will add the number of groups to the result. Then, we will return the result.
class Solution:
def numRabbits(self, answers: List[int]) -> int:
res = 0
count = collections.Counter(answers)
for color, num in count.items():
res += (num + color) // (color + 1) * (color + 1)
return res
