Find the Minimum Possible Sum of a Beautiful Array(LeetCode 2834):

Problem

You are given positive integers n and target.

An array nums is beautiful if it meets the following conditions:

  • nums.length == n.
  • nums consists of pairwise distinct positive integers.
  • There doesn't exist two distinct indices, i and j, in the range [0, n - 1], such that nums[i] + nums[j] == target.

Return the minimum possible sum that a beautiful array could have modulo 109 + 7.

 

Example 1:

Input: n = 2, target = 3
Output: 4
Explanation: We can see that nums = [1,3] is beautiful.
- The array nums has length n = 2.
- The array nums consists of pairwise distinct positive integers.
- There doesn't exist two distinct indices, i and j, with nums[i] + nums[j] == 3.
It can be proven that 4 is the minimum possible sum that a beautiful array could have.

Example 2:

Input: n = 3, target = 3
Output: 8
Explanation: We can see that nums = [1,3,4] is beautiful.
- The array nums has length n = 3.
- The array nums consists of pairwise distinct positive integers.
- There doesn't exist two distinct indices, i and j, with nums[i] + nums[j] == 3.
It can be proven that 8 is the minimum possible sum that a beautiful array could have.

Example 3:

Input: n = 1, target = 1
Output: 1
Explanation: We can see, that nums = [1] is beautiful.

 

Constraints:

  • 1 <= n <= 109
  • 1 <= target <= 109
