--description--

Provide a function to find the closest two points among a set of given points in two dimensions.

La soluzione diretta è un algoritmo O(n^2) (che possiamo chiamare algoritmo a forza bruta (brute-force)); lo pseudo-codice (usando indici) potrebbe essere semplicemente:

bruteForceClosestPair of P(1), P(2), ... P(N)
if N < 2 then
  return ∞
else
  minDistance ← |P(1) - P(2)|
  minPoints ← { P(1), P(2) }
  foreach i ∈ [1, N-1]
    foreach j ∈ [i+1, N]
      if |P(i) - P(j)| < minDistance then
        minDistance ← |P(i) - P(j)|
        minPoints ← { P(i), P(j) }
      endif
    endfor
  endfor
  return minDistance, minPoints
endif

Un algoritmo migliore è basato sull'approccio ricorsivo dividi e conquista, che è O(n\log n), uno pseudocodice potrebbe essere:

closestPair of (xP, yP)
  where xP is P(1) .. P(N) sorted by x coordinate, and
  yP is P(1) .. P(N) sorted by y coordinate (ascending order)
if N ≤ 3 then
  return closest points of xP using brute-force algorithm
else
  xL ← points of xP from 1 to ⌈N/2⌉
  xR ← points of xP from ⌈N/2⌉+1 to N
  xm ← xP(⌈N/2⌉)x
  yL ← { p ∈ yP : px ≤ xm }
  yR ← { p ∈ yP : px > xm }
  (dL, pairL) ← closestPair of (xL, yL)
  (dR, pairR) ← closestPair of (xR, yR)
  (dmin, pairMin) ← (dR, pairR)
  if dL < dR then
    (dmin, pairMin) ← (dL, pairL)
  endif
  yS ← { p ∈ yP : |xm - px| < dmin }
  nS ← number of points in yS
  (closest, closestPair) ← (dmin, pairMin)
  for i from 1 to nS - 1
    k ← i + 1
    while k ≤ nS and yS(k)y - yS(i)y < dmin
      if |yS(k) - yS(i)| < closest then
        (closest, closestPair) ← (|yS(k) - yS(i)|, {yS(k), yS(i)})
      endif
      k ← k + 1
    endwhile
  endfor
  return closest, closestPair
endif

Per l'input, aspettati che l'argomento sia un array di oggetti Point con i membri x e y impostati come numeri. Restituisci un oggetto contenete le coppie chiave-valore per distance e pair (la coppia dei due punti più vicini).

Per esempio getClosestPair con input array points:

const points = [
  new Point(1, 2),
  new Point(3, 3),
  new Point(2, 2)
];

Restituirebbe:

{
  distance: 1,
  pair: [
    {
      x: 1,
      y: 2
    },
    {
      x: 2,
      y: 2
    }
  ]
}

Nota: Ordina l'array pair secondo i valori x in ordine crescente.

--hints--

getClosestPair dovrebbe essere una funzione.

assert(typeof getClosestPair === 'function');

getClosestPair(points1).distance dovrebbe essere 0.0894096443343775.

assert.equal(getClosestPair(points1).distance, answer1.distance);

getClosestPair(points1).pair dovrebbe essere [ { x: 7.46489, y: 4.6268 }, { x: 7.46911, y: 4.71611 } ].

assert.deepEqual(
  JSON.parse(JSON.stringify(getClosestPair(points1))).pair,
  answer1.pair
);

getClosestPair(points2).distance dovrebbe essere 65.06919393998976.

assert.equal(getClosestPair(points2).distance, answer2.distance);

getClosestPair(points2).pair dovrebbe essere [ { x: 37134, y: 1963 }, { x: 37181, y: 2008 } ].

assert.deepEqual(
  JSON.parse(JSON.stringify(getClosestPair(points2))).pair,
  answer2.pair
);

getClosestPair(points3).distance dovrebbe essere 6754.625082119658.

assert.equal(getClosestPair(points3).distance, answer3.distance);

getClosestPair(points3).pair dovrebbe essere [ { x: 46817, y: 64975 }, { x: 48953, y: 58567 } ].

assert.deepEqual(
  JSON.parse(JSON.stringify(getClosestPair(points3))).pair,
