Maximizing Container Water With Two-Pointer Technique

Maximize water area between two lines using two-pointer technique. Move pointers inward based on shorter height for optimal container capacity in O(n) time and O(1) space.

  Problem Breakdown 📝

You're given an array height where each element represents the height of vertical lines on a coordinate plane. The goal is to:

Find two lines that, along with the x-axis, form a container holding the most water.
Return the maximum amount of water the container can store.
The...
