https://leetcode.com/problems/integer-replacement/
Given a positive integer n and you can do operations as follow:
- If n is even, replace n with
n/2. - If n is odd, you can replace n with either
n + 1orn - 1.
What is the minimum number of replacements needed for n to become 1?
Example 1:
Input: 8 Output: 3 Explanation: 8 -> 4 -> 2 -> 1
Example 2:
Input: 7 Output: 4 Explanation: 7 -> 8 -> 4 -> 2 -> 1 or 7 -> 6 -> 3 -> 2 -> 1
每一步决策,注意0B11的情况(即最后要保留下那个1),最后还剩k个1时,2*(k-1),1+k
class Solution {
public:
int integerReplacement(int n) {
int result = 0;
long long num = n;
while(num != 1){
// cout << n << endl;
++result;
if(num & 1){
if(num & 2){
if(num == 3) --num;
else ++num;
}
else --num;
}else{
num >>= 1;
}
}
return result;
}
};
本文探讨了LeetCode上的一道经典算法题——整数替换。题目要求找到将任意正整数n通过除以2(若为偶数)、加1或减1(若为奇数)的操作,转换为1所需的最少步骤。文章详细解析了算法思路,并提供了一个高效的解决方案,通过位运算判断奇偶性,特别关注0B11形式的特殊情况,以减少操作次数。
