Solving Circular Range Optimization Problems with Interval Dynamic Programming

The stone merging challenge involves arranging piles in a circular configuration and repeatedly combining adjacent groups until a single pile remains. Each merger generates a score equivalent to the total mass of the combined group. The algorithmic goal is to compute both the lowest and highest possible cumulative scores across all possible mer ...
