Angry Cows
의견: 0
Bessie the cow has designed what she thinks will be the next big hit video game:
"Angry Cows". The premise, which she believes is completely original, is that
the player shoots a cow with a slingshot into a one-dimensional scene
consisting of a set of hay bales located at various points on a number line; the
cow lands with sufficient force to detonate the hay bales in close proximity to
her landing site, which in turn might set of a chain reaction that causes
additional hay bales to explode. The goal is to use a single cow to start a
chain reaction that detonates all the hay bales.
There are \(N\) hay bales located at distinct integer positions
\(x_1, x_2, \ldots, x_N\) on the number line. If a cow is launched with power \(R\)
landing at position \(x\), this will causes a blast of "radius \(R\)", engulfing all
hay bales within the range \(x-R \ldots x+R\). These hay bales then themselves
explode (all simultaneously), each with a blast radius of \(R-1\). Any
not-yet-exploded bales caught in these blasts then all explode (all
simultaneously) with blast radius \(R-2\), and so on.
Please determine the minimum amount of power \(R\) with which a single cow may be
launched so that, if it lands at an appropriate location, it will cause
subsequent detonation of every single hay bale in the scene.

The first line of input contains \(N\) (\(2 \leq N \leq 50,000\)). The remaining
\(N\) lines all contain integers \(x_1 \ldots x_N\) (each in the range
\(0 \ldots 1,000,000,000\)).
Please output the minimum power \(R\) with which a cow must be launched in order
to detonate all the hay bales. Answers should be rounded and printed to exactly
1 decimal point.

13.0In this example, a cow launched with power 3 at, say, location 5, will cause
immediate detonation of hay bales at positions 3 and 8. These then explode
(simultaneously) each with blast radius 2, engulfing bales at positions 1 and
10, which next explode (simultaneously) with blast radius 1, engulfing the final
bale at position 11, which finally explodes with blast radius 0.
