Problem:
We want to make a row of bricks that is goal inches long. We have a number of small bricks (1 inch each) and big bricks (5 inches each). Return true if it is possible to make the goal by choosing from the given bricks. This is a little harder than it looks and can be done without any loops. See also: Introduction to MakeBricks
makeBricks(3, 1, 8) → true
makeBricks(3, 1, 9) → false
makeBricks(3, 2, 10) → true
Solution:
public boolean makeBricks(int small, int big, int goal) {
int digit = goal % 10;
if (goal > small + (big * 5))
return false;
if (digit < 5 && small < digit)
return false;
else if (digit > 5 && digit > small + 5)
return false;
else
return true;
}
public boolean makeBricks(int small, int big, int goal) {
ReplyDeleteif((big*5)>goal) goal%=5; //Too many 'big' bricks.
else goal-=(5*big); //If not too many big bricks, then sub. what you have.
if(small>=goal) return true;
return false;
}
public boolean makeBricks(int small, int big, int goal) {
ReplyDeleteif (goal/5<=big) return(goal%5<=small);
else return (small>=(goal-big*5));
}
public boolean makeBricks(int small, int big, int goal) {
ReplyDeletereturn (goal>(big*5) + small) ? false : (goal%5 <= small) ? true : false;
}
return goal % 5 <= small && big * 5 + small >= goal;
ReplyDeleteyou are very clever
DeleteEGYESBLOG - What an intelligent logic. How can i work on my skills to be able to think like that?
