2369. Check if There is a Valid Partition For The Array

Description

You are given a 0-indexed integer array nums. You have to partition the array into one or more contiguous subarrays.

We call a partition of the array valid if each of the obtained subarrays satisfies one of the following conditions:

1. The subarray consists of exactly 2, equal elements. For example, the subarray [2,2] is good.
2. The subarray consists of exactly 3, equal elements. For example, the subarray [4,4,4] is good.
3. The subarray consists of exactly 3 consecutive increasing elements, that is, the difference between adjacent elements is 1. For example, the subarray [3,4,5] is good, but the subarray [1,3,5] is not.

Return true if the array has at least one valid partition. Otherwise, return false.

 

Example 1:

Input: nums = [4,4,4,5,6]
Output: true
Explanation: The array can be partitioned into the subarrays [4,4] and [4,5,6].
This partition is valid, so we return true.

Example 2:

Input: nums = [1,1,1,2]
Output: false
Explanation: There is no valid partition for this array.

 

Constraints:

• 2 <= nums.length <= 105
• 1 <= nums[i] <= 106
