package math; /** * Created by gouthamvidyapradhan on 08/09/2017. * There is a room with n lights which are turned on initially and 4 buttons on the wall. * After performing exactly m unknown operations towards buttons, you need to return how many different kinds of status of the n lights could be. *
* Suppose n lights are labeled as number [1, 2, 3 ..., n], function of these 4 buttons are given below: *
* Flip all the lights. * Flip lights with even numbers. * Flip lights with odd numbers. * Flip lights with (3k + 1) numbers, k = 0, 1, 2, ... *
* Example 1: * Input: n = 1, m = 1. * Output: 2 * Explanation: Status can be: [on], [off] *
* Example 2: * Input: n = 2, m = 1. * Output: 3 * Explanation: Status can be: [on, off], [off, on], [off, off] *
* Example 3: * Input: n = 3, m = 1. * Output: 4 * Explanation: Status can be: [off, on, off], [on, off, on], [off, off, off], [off, on, on]. *
* Note: n and m both fit in range [0, 1000]. */ public class BulbSwitcherII { public static void main(String[] args) throws Exception { System.out.println(new BulbSwitcherII().flipLights(1, 1000)); } public int flipLights(int n, int m) { if (n == 0 || m == 0) return 1; if (n == 1 && m >= 1) return 2; if (n == 2) { if (m == 1) return 3; if (m >= 2) return 4; } else if (n >= 3) { if (m == 1) return 4; if (m == 2) return 7; } return 8; } }
