605. Can Place Flowers

Posted 2020-10-10 andywu

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

这道题给了我们一个01数组，其中1表示已经放了花，0表示可以放花的位置，但是有个限制条件是不能有相邻的花

解法1

 1     public boolean canPlaceFlowers(int[] flowerbed, int n) {
 2         int count = 0;
 3         for(int i = 0; i < flowerbed.length && count < n; i++) {
 4             if(flowerbed[i] == 0) {
 5          //get next and prev flower bed slot values. If i lies at the ends the next and prev are considered as 0. 
 6                int next = (i == flowerbed.length - 1) ? 0 : flowerbed[i + 1]; 
 7                int prev = (i == 0) ? 0 : flowerbed[i - 1];
 8                if(next == 0 && prev == 0) {
 9                    flowerbed[i] = 1;
10                    count++;
11                }
12             }
13         }
14         
15         return count == n;
16     }

30                 n--;
31             }
32         }
