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.
class Solution {
public:
bool judge(vector<int>& gas, vector<int>& cost, int k)
{
if(gas[k] < cost[k])
return false;
int curgas = 0;
for(int i=k; i<gas.size(); ++i)
{
curgas += gas[i];
curgas -= cost[i];
//cout<<curgas<<' ';
if(curgas < 0)
return false;
}
for(int i=0; i<k; ++i)
{
curgas += gas[i];
curgas -= cost[i];
//cout<<curgas<<' ';
if(curgas < 0)
return false;
}
return true;
}
int canCompleteCircuit(vector<int>& gas, vector<int>& cost) {
if(gas.size() != cost.size())
return -1;
if(gas.empty())
return -1;
for(int i=0; i<gas.size(); ++i)
{
if(judge(gas, cost, i))
return i;
}
return -1;
}
};
实在想不到好多解法,就参考别人思路得到ac代码。
注意题目中给出的条件:如果有解就确定有一个解,或者没有解。此条件是最重要的,就是说除非所有气站“气量和”小于所有路径消耗“气量和”而没有解外,其他情况下均有一个解。那么我们就可以用排除法来做了。
另外一点很重要:从0到i刚好不可到达,那么从0~i-1都不可到达i。
得到一下代码:
class Solution {
public:
int canCompleteCircuit(vector<int>& gas, vector<int>& cost) {
if(gas.size() != cost.size())
return -1;
if(gas.empty())
return -1;
int sum = 0, total = 0, j = 0;
for(int i=0; i<gas.size(); ++i)
{
sum += gas[i] - cost[i];
total += gas[i] - cost[i];
if(sum < 0)//从0到i刚好不可到达,那么从0~i-1都不可到达i
{
sum = 0;
j = i+1;
}
}
if(total < 0)
return -1;
return j;
}
};
