LeetCode 605. Can Place Flowers （可以种花）

Posted 2020-10-10 几米空间

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:

1. The input array won\'t violate no-adjacent-flowers rule.
2. The input array size is in the range of [1, 20000].
3. n is a non-negative integer which won\'t exceed the input array size.

题目标签：Array

　　题目给了我们一个 flowerbed array， 和一个 n， 让我们找出是否右足够的空间来置放 n 个花。 每一朵符合条件的花，它的左右相邻位置 不能有花。

　　所以我们要遍历flowerbed array：

　　　　如果遇到0的话，还要检查这个0的左右两边是否都是0，都是0的情况下，才可以算作一个空间来置放花，然后可以额外跳过右边的0；

　　　　如果遇到1的话，只需要额外跳过1右边的位置；

　　　　一旦当空间数量 已经 等于 n 了，就不需要继续找下去了，直接返回true。（这里要加一个 = ，因为给的 n 有可能是 0）

 

　　当遍历完了，说明空间不够，返回 false 即可。

关键点：符合条件的empty spot 的 左右邻居也要为0

 1 class Solution 
 2 {

 5         int count = 0; // count the valid empty spot

 7         for(int i=0; i<flowerbed.length; i++)
 8         {

10             if(flowerbed[i] == 0) // if find empty spot, check its adjacent spots
11             {
12                 if(i-1 >= 0 && flowerbed[i-1] == 1) // check left adjacent spot
13                     continue;
14                 if(i+1 < flowerbed.length && flowerbed[i+1] == 1) // check right adjacent spot

16                 
17                 // if come here, meaning this 0 is valid spot to place flower
18                 count++;
19                 i++; // skip next 0
20             }
21             else if(flowerbed[i] == 1) // if find a flower spot, its next spot is not valid, skip it
22             {
23                 i++;
24             }
25             
26             
27             if(count >= n) // if there are enough spots to place flower, no need to continue
28                 return true;
29             
30         }
31         
32         return false;
