667. Beautiful Arrangement II

Given two integers n and k, you need to construct a list which contains n different positive integers ranging from 1 to n and obeys the following requirement: 
Suppose this list is [a1, a2, a3, ... , an], then the list [|a1 - a2|, |a2 - a3|, |a3 - a4|, ... , |an-1 - an|] has exactly k distinct integers.

If there are multiple answers, print any of them.

Example 1:

Input: n = 3, k = 1
Output: [1, 2, 3]
Explanation: The [1, 2, 3] has three different positive integers ranging from 1 to 3, and the [1, 1] has exactly 1 distinct integer: 1.

Example 2:

Input: n = 3, k = 2
Output: [1, 3, 2]
Explanation: The [1, 3, 2] has three different positive integers ranging from 1 to 3, and the [2, 1] has exactly 2 distinct integers: 1 and 2.

Note:

1. The n and k are in the range 1 <= k < n <= 104.

思路：果然不能直接DFS，会TLE
 * 就是要想办法凑出k个来
 * 注意到：1..n最多可以弄出n-1个不同的差，比如1..9就是
 * 1 9 2 8 3 7 4 6 5
 * diff: 8 7 6 5 4 3 2 1
 * 是大小交替的，这样的话，只要先凑出k-1个，后面按照顺序来产生1就好了

注意下标控制

class Solution {
	
    public int[] constructArray(int n, int k) {
    	int[] ret = new int[n];
    	int l = 1, r = n, i = 0;
    	for(; i<k; i++) {
    		if(i % 2 == 0)	ret[i] = l++;
    		else	ret[i] = r--;
    	}
    	
    	if(i % 2 == 1)
    		for(int j=l; j<=r; j++)	ret[i++] = j;
    	else 
    		for(int j=r; j>=l; j--)	ret[i++] = j;
    	
    	return ret;
    }
}
