<h2><a href="https://leetcode.com/problems/minimize-maximum-pair-sum-in-array/">1877. Minimize Maximum Pair Sum in Array</a></h2><h3>Medium</h3><hr><div><p>The <strong>pair sum</strong> of a pair <code>(a,b)</code> is equal to <code>a + b</code>. The <strong>maximum pair sum</strong> is the largest <strong>pair sum</strong> in a list of pairs.</p>
2+
3+
<ul>
4+
<li>For example, if we have pairs <code>(1,5)</code>, <code>(2,3)</code>, and <code>(4,4)</code>, the <strong>maximum pair sum</strong> would be <code>max(1+5, 2+3, 4+4) = max(6, 5, 8) = 8</code>.</li>
5+
</ul>
6+
7+
<p>Given an array <code>nums</code> of <strong>even</strong> length <code>n</code>, pair up the elements of <code>nums</code> into <code>n / 2</code> pairs such that:</p>
8+
9+
<ul>
10+
<li>Each element of <code>nums</code> is in <strong>exactly one</strong> pair, and</li>
11+
<li>The <strong>maximum pair sum </strong>is <strong>minimized</strong>.</li>
12+
</ul>
13+
14+
<p>Return <em>the minimized <strong>maximum pair sum</strong> after optimally pairing up the elements</em>.</p>
15+
16+
<p>&nbsp;</p>
17+
<p><strong class="example">Example 1:</strong></p>
18+
19+
<pre><strong>Input:</strong> nums = [3,5,2,3]
20+
<strong>Output:</strong> 7
21+
<strong>Explanation:</strong> The elements can be paired up into pairs (3,3) and (5,2).
22+
The maximum pair sum is max(3+3, 5+2) = max(6, 7) = 7.
23+
</pre>
24+
25+
<p><strong class="example">Example 2:</strong></p>
26+
27+
<pre><strong>Input:</strong> nums = [3,5,4,2,4,6]
28+
<strong>Output:</strong> 8
29+
<strong>Explanation:</strong> The elements can be paired up into pairs (3,5), (4,4), and (6,2).
30+
The maximum pair sum is max(3+5, 4+4, 6+2) = max(8, 8, 8) = 8.

<p><strong>Constraints:</strong></p>
35+
36+
<ul>
37+
<li><code>n == nums.length</code></li>
38+
<li><code>2 &lt;= n &lt;= 10<sup>5</sup></code></li>
39+
<li><code>n</code> is <strong>even</strong>.</li>
40+
<li><code>1 &lt;= nums[i] &lt;= 10<sup>5</sup></code></li>
