995. Minimum Number of K Consecutive Bit Flips
Description
You are given a binary array nums and an integer k.
A k-bit flip is choosing a subarray of length k from nums and simultaneously changing every 0 in the subarray to 1, and every 1 in the subarray to 0.
Return the minimum number of k-bit flips required so that there is no 0 in the array. If it is not possible, return -1.
A subarray is a contiguous part of an array.
Example 1:
Input: nums = [0,1,0], k = 1 Output: 2 Explanation: Flip nums[0], then flip nums[2].
Example 2:
Input: nums = [1,1,0], k = 2 Output: -1 Explanation: No matter how we flip subarrays of size 2, we cannot make the array become [1,1,1].
Example 3:
Input: nums = [0,0,0,1,0,1,1,0], k = 3 Output: 3 Explanation: Flip nums[0],nums[1],nums[2]: nums becomes [1,1,1,1,0,1,1,0] Flip nums[4],nums[5],nums[6]: nums becomes [1,1,1,1,1,0,0,0] Flip nums[5],nums[6],nums[7]: nums becomes [1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1]
Constraints:
1 <= nums.length <= 1051 <= k <= nums.length
Solutions
Solution 1: Difference Array
We notice that the result of reversing several consecutive elements is independent of the order of the reversals. Therefore, we can greedily consider the number of reversals needed at each position.
We can process the array from left to right.
Suppose we need to process position $i$, and the elements to the left of position $i$ have been processed. If the element at position $i$ is $0$, then we must perform a reversal operation, we need to reverse the elements in the interval $[i,..i+k-1]$. Here we use a difference array $d$ to maintain the number of reversals at each position, then to determine whether the current position $i$ needs to be reversed, we only need to see $s = \sum_{j=0}^{i}d[j]$ and the parity of $nums[i]$. If $s$ and $nums[i]$ have the same parity, then the element at position $i$ is still $0$ and needs to be reversed. At this time, we check whether $i+k$ exceeds the length of the array. If it exceeds the length of the array, then the target cannot be achieved, return $-1$. Otherwise, we increase $d[i]$ by $1$, decrease $d[i+k]$ by $1$, increase the answer by $1$, and increase $s$ by $1$.
In this way, when we have processed all the elements in the array, we can return the answer.
The time complexity is $O(n)$, and the space complexity is $O(n)$. Here, $n$ is the length of the array $nums$.
