Defuse The Bomb
PROBLEM
You have a bomb to defuse, and your time is running out! Your informer will provide you with a circular array code
of length of n
and a key k
.
To decrypt the code, you must replace every number. All the numbers are replaced simultaneously.
- If
k > 0
, replace theith
number with the sum of the nextk
numbers. - If
k < 0
, replace theith
number with the sum of the previousk
numbers. - If
k = 0
, replace theith
number with0
.
As code is circular, the next element of code[n-1]
is code[0]
, and the previous element of code[0]
is code[n-1]
.
Given the circular array code
and an integer key k
, return the decrypted code to defuse the bomb!
Example 1:
*Input*: code = [5,7,1,4], k = 3
*Output*: [12,10,16,13]
*Explanation*: Each number is replaced by the sum of the next 3 numbers. The decrypted code is [7+1+4, 1+4+5, 4+5+7, 5+7+1]. Notice that the numbers wrap around.
Example 2:
*Input*: code = [1,2,3,4], k = 0
*Output*: [0,0,0,0]
*Explanation*: When k is zero, the numbers are replaced by 0.
Example 3:
*Input*: code = [2,4,9,3], k = -2
*Output*: [12,5,6,13]
*Explanation*: The decrypted code is [3+9, 2+3, 4+2, 9+4]. Notice that the numbers wrap around again. If k is negative, the sum is of the previous numbers.
SOLVING
Code
class Solution {
public:
vector<int> decrypt(vector<int> &code, int k) {
size_t len = code.size();
vector<int> result(len, 0);
if (k == 0)
return result;
if (k > 0)
for (int i = 0; i < len; i++)
for (int j = 1; j <= k; j++)
result[i] += code[(i + j) % len];
else
for (int i = 0; i < len; i++)
for (int j = 1; j <= (-1 * k); j++)
result[i] += code[(i - j + len) % len];
return result;
}
};
