    1049 - Last Stone Weight II\.

    Medium

    You are given an array of integers stones where stones[i] is the weight of the <code>i<sup>th</sup></code> stone.

    We are playing a game with the stones. On each turn, we choose any two stones and smash them together. Suppose the stones have weights x and y with x &lt;= y. The result of this smash is:

    • If x == y, both stones are destroyed, and

    • If x != y, the stone of weight x is destroyed, and the stone of weight y has new weight y - x.

    At the end of the game, there is at most one stone left.

    Return the smallest possible weight of the left stone. If there are no stones left, return 0.

    Example 1:

    Input: stones = 2,7,4,1,8,1

    Output: 1

    Explanation:

    We can combine 2 and 4 to get 2, so the array converts to 2,7,1,8,1 then,

    we can combine 7 and 8 to get 1, so the array converts to 2,1,1,1 then,

    we can combine 2 and 1 to get 1, so the array converts to 1,1,1 then,

    we can combine 1 and 1 to get 0, so the array converts to 1, then that's the optimal value.

    Example 2:

    Input: stones = 31,26,33,21,40

    Output: 5

    Constraints:

    • 1 &lt;= stones.length &lt;= 30

    • 1 &lt;= stones[i] &lt;= 100
