You are given an array x of n
positive numbers. You start at point (0,0)
and moves x[0]
metres to the north, then x[1]
metres to the west, x[2]
metres to the south, x[3]
metres to the east and so on. In other words, after each move your direction changes counter-clockwise.
Write a one-pass algorithm with O(1)
extra space to determine, if your path crosses itself, or not.
Example 1:
Given x = [2, 1, 1, 2]
,
?????
? ?
???????>
?
Return true (self crossing)
Example 2:
Given x = [1, 2, 3, 4]
,
????????
? ?
?
?
?????????????>
Return false (not self crossing)
Example 3:
Given x = [1, 1, 1, 1]
,
?????
? ?
?????>
Return true (self crossing)
分为三种情况分析:
1. Fourth line crosses first line and works for fifth line crosses second line and so on...
2. Fifth line meets first line and works for the lines after
3. Sixth line crosses first line and works for the lines after
这3种情况包含了所有可能cross的情况。
