Leetcode 158 Read N Characters Given Read4 II - Call multiple times

The API: int read4(char *buf) reads 4 characters at a time from a file.

The return value is the actual number of characters read. For example, it returns 3 if there is only 3 characters left in the file.

By using the read4 API, implement the function int read(char *buf, int n) that reads n characters from the file.

Note:
The read function may be called multiple times.

和157不同的地方在于，called multiple times

可以使用全局变量来解决这个问题

/* The read4 API is defined in the parent class Reader4. 
      int read4(char[] buf); */  
  
public class Solution extends Reader4 {  
    /** 
     * @param buf Destination buffer 
     * @param n   Maximum number of characters to read 
     * @return    The number of characters read 
     */  
     
    private char[] buffer = new char[4]; 
    private int pointer = 0;//buffer的pointer
    private int counter = 0;//buffer的counter
    public int read(char[] buf, int n) {  
        int ptr = 0;//buf
        while(ptr < n){
            if(pointer == 0){
                counter = read4(buffer);
            }
            
            
            while(ptr < n && pointer < counter){
                buf[ptr++] = buffer[pointer++];
            }
            
            
            if(pointer == counter){
                pointer = 0;
            }
            //end of file
            if(counter < 4){  
                break;
            }
            
        }
        return ptr;  
    }
