LeetCode-RLE Iterator

Description:
Write an iterator that iterates through a run-length encoded sequence.

The iterator is initialized by RLEIterator(int[] A), where A is a run-length encoding of some sequence. More specifically, for all even i, A[i] tells us the number of times that the non-negative integer value A[i+1] is repeated in the sequence.

The iterator supports one function: next(int n), which exhausts the next n elements (n >= 1) and returns the last element exhausted in this way. If there is no element left to exhaust, next returns -1 instead.

For example, we start with A = [3,8,0,9,2,5], which is a run-length encoding of the sequence [8,8,8,5,5]. This is because the sequence can be read as “three eights, zero nines, two fives”.

Example 1:

Input: [“RLEIterator”,”next”,”next”,”next”,”next”], [[[3,8,0,9,2,5]],[2],[1],[1],[2]]
Output: [null,8,8,5,-1]
Explanation:

RLEIterator is initialized with RLEIterator([3,8,0,9,2,5]).
This maps to the sequence [8,8,8,5,5].
RLEIterator.next is then called 4 times:

.next(2) exhausts 2 terms of the sequence, returning 8.  The remaining sequence is now [8, 5, 5].

.next(1) exhausts 1 term of the sequence, returning 8.  The remaining sequence is now [5, 5].

.next(1) exhausts 1 term of the sequence, returning 5.  The remaining sequence is now [5].

.next(2) exhausts 2 terms, returning -1.  This is because the first term exhausted was 5,
but the second term did not exist.  Since the last term exhausted does not exist, we return -1.

Note:

  1. 0 <= A.length <= 1000
  2. A.length is an even integer.
  3. 0 <= A[i] <= 10^9
  4. There are at most 1000 calls to RLEIterator.next(int n) per test case.
  5. Each call to RLEIterator.next(int n) will have 1 <= n <= 10^9.

题意:给定一个数组,偶数位表示下一个位置的数字出现的次数,奇数位表示数字;例如给定数组A=[3,8,0,9,2,5]表示的结果序列应当是有3个8、0个9、和2个5,即sequence=[8,8,8,5,5];现要求模拟迭代器,构建next函数,实现遍历sequence;

解法:一开始我的想法是先把给定的数组A转换为sequence序列保存在List中,此后再定义一个位置下标index来实现迭代过程;但是题目中说明了0 <= A[i] <= 10^9;因此会出现Memory Limit Exceeded的问题;所以,我们只能够利用原数组A来实现;
我们可以定义两个变量,index用于表示在数组A中的位置,cnt用于表示此时在index处已经遍历过的index+1处的数字的个数;每次调用next(n)函数时,我们需要令cnt增加n后找到满足其大小的index处;需要注意的是index只处在数组A的偶数位;

Java
class RLEIterator {
    private int[] sequence;
    private int index;
    private int cnt;

    public RLEIterator(int[] A) {
        this.sequence = A;
        this.index = 0;
        this.cnt = 0;
    }

    public int next(int n) {
        this.cnt += n;
        while (index < this.sequence.length && this.cnt > this.sequence[index]) {
            this.cnt -= this.sequence[index];
            index += 2;
        }
        if (index >= this.sequence.length) {
            return -1;
        }
        if (index < this.sequence.length) {
            return this.sequence[index + 1];
        }
        return -1;
    }
}
