Trapping Rain Water Problem Statement
Given a long type array/list ARR
of size N
, representing an elevation map where ARR[i]
denotes the elevation of the ith
bar, calculate the total amount of rainwater that can be trapped in these elevations.
Input:
The first line contains an integer 'T' denoting the number of test cases. Following this, the test cases are provided:
For each test case:
- The first line contains an integer 'N', representing the size of the array/list.
- The second line contains 'N' space-separated integers representing the elevation of the bars.
Output:
For each test case, output a single integer in a separate line, indicating the total water that can be trapped.
Example:
Input:
2
6
0 1 0 2 1 0
3
3 0 2
Output:
1
1
Constraints:
1 ≤ T ≤ 10
0 ≤ N ≤ 10^4
0 ≤ ARR[i] ≤ 10^9
Note:
The width of each bar is the same and is equal to 1.
You do not need to print anything explicitly. Implement the function to return the result.
