45. Jump Game II

45. Jump Game II

You are given a 0-indexed array of integers nums of length n. You are initially positioned at nums[0].

Each element nums[i] represents the maximum length of a forward jump from index i. In other words, if you are at nums[i], you can jump to any nums[i + j] where:

  • 0 <= j <= nums[i] and
  • i + j < n

Return the minimum number of jumps to reach nums[n - 1]. The test cases are generated such that you can reach nums[n - 1].

Example 1:

Input: nums = [2,3,1,1,4]
Output: 2
Explanation: The minimum number of jumps to reach the last index is 2. Jump 1 step from index 0 to 1, then 3 steps to the last index.

Example 2:

Input: nums = [2,3,0,1,4]
Output: 2

Constraints:

  • 1 <= nums.length <= 104
  • 0 <= nums[i] <= 1000

 

class Solution:
    def jump(self, nums: List[int]) -> int:
        current_jump_max = 0
        next_jump_max = 0
        result = 0
        for i in range(len(nums) – 1):
            next_jump_max = max(next_jump_max, i + nums[i])
            print(i)
            print(next_jump_max)
            if i == current_jump_max:
                result = result +1
                current_jump_max = next_jump_max
                print(“current”)
                print(i)
                print(‘————————-current’)
            print(“———————“)
        return result
