Problem type

Given an array of integers, find and output the length of the longest increasing subsequence.

Input Specification

Line 1: N, the length of the array.

Line 2: An array A containing N integers, with each element separated by a single space.

Output Specification

The only line of output should contain the length of the longest increasing subsequence.

Constraints

1 \le N \le 1\,000\,000

0 \le A_i < 10^9

Sample Input 1

5
1 5 2 6 4

Sample Output 1

3

Sample Input 2

    Can someone help me? Even if I a, using an optimized DP approach, I am getting either a TLE or an MLE (Python).

      Your claims about an "optimized DP approach" are wrong.

      for i in range(1, N):
          for j in range(0, i):
              if X[i] > X[j] and DP[i] < DP[j] + 1:
                  DP[i] = DP[j] + 1
      

      Your time complexity is \mathcal{O}(N^2), and when N is as large as 10^6 you are using around 10^{12} operations.
      Assuming DMOJ can execute 10^8 operations a second, you would need around 10000 seconds, or like 3 hours of computation time.
      (probably more since you're using python...)
      Try to solve this problem in \mathcal{O}(N \log N) time.

      Also for future reference, please consult the DMOJ discord server.

    Why does this submission https://dmoj.ca/submission/3042942 compiled with Java 11 pass every test case but an identical submission https://dmoj.ca/submission/3042941 compiled with Java 8 fail? Is there something that I'm missing?

      Compact Strings were introduced in Java 9, so reading in the entire line (which is up to 10 million characters) takes much less memory.

    If only memory limit was larger... then you can AC using a segment tree

    Edit: xiaowuc1 AC'd using a segment tree so I guess I'm just dumb
