花花酱 LeetCode 1752. Check if Array Is Sorted and Rotated

Given an array nums, return true if the array was originally sorted in non-decreasing order, then rotated some number of positions (including zero). Otherwise, return false.

There may be duplicates in the original array.

Note: An array A rotated by x positions results in an array B of the same length such that A[i] == B[(i+x) % A.length], where % is the modulo operation.

Example 1:

Input: nums = [3,4,5,1,2]
Output: true
Explanation: [1,2,3,4,5] is the original sorted array.
You can rotate the array by x = 3 positions to begin on the the element of value 3: [3,4,5,1,2].

Example 2:

Input: nums = [2,1,3,4]
Output: false
Explanation: There is no sorted array once rotated that can make nums.

Example 3:

Input: nums = [1,2,3]
Output: true
Explanation: [1,2,3] is the original sorted array.
You can rotate the array by x = 0 positions (i.e. no rotation) to make nums.

Example 4:

Input: nums = [1,1,1]
Output: true
Explanation: [1,1,1] is the original sorted array.
You can rotate any number of positions to make nums.

Example 5:

Input: nums = [2,1]
Output: true
Explanation: [1,2] is the original sorted array.
You can rotate the array by x = 5 positions to begin on the element of value 2: [2,1].

Constraints:

  • 1 <= nums.length <= 100
  • 1 <= nums[i] <= 100

Solution: Counting and checking

Count how many turning points (nums[i] < nums[i – 1]) in the array. Return false if there are more than 1.
For the turning point r, (nums[r] < nums[r – 1), return true if both of the following conditions are satisfied:
1. nums[r – 1] is the largest number, e.g. nums[r – 1] >= nums[n – 1]
2. nums[r] is the smallest number, e.g. nums[r] <= nums[0]

Time complexity: O(n)
Space complexity: O(1)
