There are N gas stations along a circular route, where the amount of gas at station i is gas[i].
You have a car with an unlimited gas tank and it costs cost[i] of gas to travel from station i to its next
station (i+1). You begin the journey with an empty tank at one of the gas stations.
Return the starting gas station’s index if you can travel around the circuit once, otherwise return -1.

Note: The solution is guaranteed to be unique.
思路:
1.暴力。O(n^2)
2.如果总的gas-cost小于0,那么返回-1;如果大于0,遍历每个gas station,如果当前索引走不到,那么重新标记下一个索引,重新计数知道循环结束,返回标记索引。
sum判断当前的指针的有效性,total则判断整个数组是否有解,如果有则通过sum的到下标,没有返回-1。
class Solution{
public:
int isComplete(vector<int> &gas,vector<int>&cost)
{
int total=0;
int j=-1;
for(int i=0,sum=0;i<gas.size();++i)
{
sum+=gas[i] - cost[i];
total+=gas[i]-cost[i];
if(sum<0)
{
j=i;
sum=0;
}
}
return total >= 0?j+1:-1;
}
};
