You have a total of n coins that you want to form in a staircase shape, where every k-th row must have exactly k coins. Given n, find the total number of full staircase rows that can be formed. n is a non-negative integer and fits within the range of a 32-bit signed integer. Example 1: n = 5 The coins can form the following rows: ¤ ¤ ¤ ¤ ¤ Because the 3rd row is incomplete, we return 2. Example 2: n = 8 The coins can form the following rows: ¤ ¤ ¤ ¤ ¤ ¤ ¤ ¤ Because the 4th row is incomplete, we return 3.

public int arrangeCoins(int n) { if (n == 0) return 0; int beg = 1, end = n; while (beg + 1 < end) { long mid = beg + (end - beg) / 2; if (mid * (mid + 1) / 2 <= n) { beg = (int)mid; } else { end = (int)mid; } } return beg; }
