969 - Pancake Sorting\.
Medium
Given an array of integers
arr
, sort the array by performing a series of pancake flips.In one pancake flip we do the following steps:
Choose an integer
k
where1 <= k <= arr.length
.Reverse the sub-array
arr[0...k-1]
( 0-indexed ).
For example, if
arr = [3,2,1,4]
and we performed a pancake flip choosingk = 3
, we reverse the sub-array[3,2,1]
, so <code>arr = <ins>1</ins>,<ins>2</ins>,<ins>3</ins>,4</code> after the pancake flip atk = 3
.Return an array of the
k
\-values corresponding to a sequence of pancake flips that sortarr
. Any valid answer that sorts the array within10 * arr.length
flips will be judged as correct.Example 1:
Input: arr = 3,2,4,1
Output: 4,2,4,3
Explanation:
We perform 4 pancake flips, with k values 4, 2, 4, and 3.
Starting state: arr = 3, 2, 4, 1
After 1st flip (k = 4): arr = <ins>1</ins>, <ins>4</ins>, <ins>2</ins>, <ins>3</ins>
After 2nd flip (k = 2): arr = <ins>4</ins>, <ins>1</ins>, 2, 3
After 3rd flip (k = 4): arr = <ins>3</ins>, <ins>2</ins>, <ins>1</ins>, <ins>4</ins>
After 4th flip (k = 3): arr = <ins>1</ins>, <ins>2</ins>, <ins>3</ins>, 4, which is sorted.
Example 2:
Input: arr = 1,2,3
Output: []
Explanation: The input is already sorted, so there is no need to flip anything. Note that other answers, such as 3, 3, would also be accepted.
Constraints:
1 <= arr.length <= 100
1 <= arr[i] <= arr.length
All integers in
arr
are unique (i.e.arr
is a permutation of the integers from1
toarr.length
).
