605. Can Place Flowers*
https://leetcode.com/problems/can-place-flowers/
题目描述
Suppose you have a long flowerbed in which some of the plots are planted and some are not. However, flowers cannot be planted in adjacent plots - they would compete for water and both would die.
Given a flowerbed (represented as an array containing 0 and 1, where 0 means empty and 1 means not empty), and a number n, return if n new flowers can be planted in it without violating the no-adjacent-flowers rule.
Example 1:
Input: flowerbed = [1,0,0,0,1], n = 1
Output: True
Example 2:
Input: flowerbed = [1,0,0,0,1], n = 2
Output: False
Note:
- The input array won’t violate no-adjacent-flowers rule.
- The input array size is in the range of
[1, 20000]
. n
is a non-negative integer which won’t exceed the input array size.
C++ 实现 1
贪婪算法. 能用上最少空间的思路是, 遇到为 0
的位置, 就尝试放置一盆花, 但是要判断左边 prev
以及右边是否已经有花了.
思路参考: Java - Greedy solution - O(flowerbed) - beats 100%
其中 count < n
这个条件是一个优化, 可以提前终止循环.
class Solution {
public:
bool canPlaceFlowers(vector<int>& flowerbed, int n) {
int count = 0;
// 利用 count < n 提前终止循环
for (int i = 0; i < flowerbed.size() && count < n; ++ i) {
if (flowerbed[i] == 0) {
int prev = i == 0 ? 0 : flowerbed[i - 1];
int next = i == flowerbed.size() - 1 ? 0 : flowerbed[i + 1];
if (prev == 0 && next == 0) {
flowerbed[i] = 1;
count ++;
}
}
}
return count == n;
}
};
