1877 - Minimize Maximum Pair Sum in Array\.

Medium

The pair sum of a pair (a,b) is equal to a + b. The maximum pair sum is the largest pair sum in a list of pairs.

• For example, if we have pairs (1,5), (2,3), and (4,4), the maximum pair sum would be max(1+5, 2+3, 4+4) = max(6, 5, 8) = 8.

Given an array nums of even length n, pair up the elements of nums into n / 2 pairs such that:

• Each element of nums is in exactly one pair, and

• The maximum pair sum is minimized.

Return the minimized maximum pair sum after optimally pairing up the elements.

Example 1:

Input: nums = 3,5,2,3

Output: 7

Explanation: The elements can be paired up into pairs (3,3) and (5,2).

The maximum pair sum is max(3+3, 5+2) = max(6, 7) = 7.

Example 2:

Input: nums = 3,5,4,2,4,6

Output: 8

Explanation: The elements can be paired up into pairs (3,5), (4,4), and (6,2).

The maximum pair sum is max(3+5, 4+4, 6+2) = max(8, 8, 8) = 8.

Constraints:

• n == nums.length

• <code>2 <= n <= 10⁵</code>

• n is even.

• <code>1 <= numsi<= 10⁵</code>
