    1345 - Jump Game IV.

    Hard

    Given an array of integers arr, you are initially positioned at the first index of the array.

    In one step you can jump from index i to index:

    • i + 1 where: i + 1 < arr.length.
    • i - 1 where: i - 1 >= 0.
    • j where: arr[i] == arr[j] and i != j.

    Return the minimum number of steps to reach the last index of the array.

    Notice that you can not jump outside of the array at any time.

    Example 1:

    Input: arr = [100,-23,-23,404,100,23,23,23,3,404]

    Output: 3

    Explanation: You need three jumps from index 0 –> 4 –> 3 –> 9. Note that index 9 is the last index of the array.

    Example 2:

    Input: arr = [7]

    Output: 0

    Explanation: Start index is the last index. You do not need to jump.

    Example 3:

    Input: arr = [7,6,9,6,9,6,9,7]

    Output: 1

    Explanation: You can jump directly from index 0 to index 7 which is last index of the array.

    Constraints:

    • 1 <= arr.length <= 5 * 104
    • -108 <= arr[i] <= 108
