Problem
There are 8
prison cells in a row and each cell is either occupied or vacant.
Each day, whether the cell is occupied or vacant changes according to the following rules:
- If a cell has two adjacent neighbors that are both occupied or both vacant, then the cell becomes occupied.
- Otherwise, it becomes vacant.
Note that because the prison is a row, the first and the last cells in the row can't have two adjacent neighbors.
You are given an integer array cells
where cells[i] == 1
if the ith
cell is occupied and cells[i] == 0
if the ith
cell is vacant, and you are given an integer n
.
Return the state of the prison after n
days (i.e., n
such changes described above).
Example 1:
Input: cells = [0,1,0,1,1,0,0,1], n = 7 Output: [0,0,1,1,0,0,0,0] Explanation: The following table summarizes the state of the prison on each day: Day 0: [0, 1, 0, 1, 1, 0, 0, 1] Day 1: [0, 1, 1, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0] Day 2: [0, 0, 0, 0, 1, 1, 1, 0] Day 3: [0, 1, 1, 0, 0, 1, 0, 0] Day 4: [0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 1, 0, 0] Day 5: [0, 1, 1, 1, 0, 1, 0, 0] Day 6: [0, 0, 1, 0, 1, 1, 0, 0] Day 7: [0, 0, 1, 1, 0, 0, 0, 0]
Example 2:
Input: cells = [1,0,0,1,0,0,1,0], n = 1000000000 Output: [0,0,1,1,1,1,1,0]
Constraints:
cells.length == 8
