back to boardHow to make use of the FOCs for this problem? We can write some FOCs which describe optimal point. But how to find point which satisfies these FOCs? Re: How to make use of the FOCs for this problem? I suspect it is not necessary to find this point, you can get correct answer without knowing exact location of it. I haven't solved this problem yet, so it is a hypotesis only... Re: How to make use of the FOCs for this problem? Haven't ACed yet, but it seems I found the algo which uses 2 binary searches only. Re: How to make use of the FOCs for this problem? If you want to use BS, you should have a sorted structure. What is it? Do you serach this point on some fixed line? Re: How to make use of the FOCs for this problem? Of course, I convert initial problem to some other problem, and there it is ordered structures =) Re: How to make use of the FOCs for this problem?
