975. Odd Even Jump

Hard

You are given an integer array arr. From some starting index, you can make a series of jumps. The (1st, 3rd, 5th, …) jumps in the series are called odd-numbered jumps, and the (2nd, 4th, 6th, …) jumps in the series are called even-numbered jumps. Note that the jumps are numbered, not the indices.

You may jump forward from index i to index j (with i < j) in the following way:

A starting index is good if, starting from that index, you can reach the end of the array (index arr.length - 1) by jumping some number of times (possibly 0 or more than once).

Return the number of good starting indices.

Example 1:

Input: arr = [10,13,12,14,15]

Output: 2

Explanation:

From starting index i = 0, we can make our 1st jump to i = 2 (since arr[2] is the smallest among arr[1],

arr[2], arr[3], arr[4] that is greater or equal to arr[0]), then we cannot jump any more.

From starting index i = 1 and i = 2, we can make our 1st jump to i = 3, then we cannot jump any more.

From starting index i = 3, we can make our 1st jump to i = 4, so we have reached the end.

From starting index i = 4, we have reached the end already.

In total, there are 2 different starting indices i = 3 and i = 4, where we can reach the end with some number of jumps.

Example 2:

Input: arr = [2,3,1,1,4]

Output: 3

Explanation:

From starting index i = 0, we make jumps to i = 1, i = 2, i = 3:

During our 1st jump (odd-numbered), we first jump to i = 1 because arr[1] is the smallest value in [arr[1],

arr[2], arr[3], arr[4]] that is greater than or equal to arr[0].

During our 2nd jump (even-numbered), we jump from i = 1 to i = 2 because arr[2] is the largest value in

[arr[2], arr[3], arr[4]] that is less than or equal to arr[1]. arr[3] is also the largest value, but 2 is a

smaller index, so we can only jump to i = 2 and not i = 3

During our 3rd jump (odd-numbered), we jump from i = 2 to i = 3 because arr[3] is the smallest value in

[arr[3], arr[4]] that is greater than or equal to arr[2].

We can’t jump from i = 3 to i = 4, so the starting index i = 0 is not good.

In a similar manner, we can deduce that: From starting index i = 1, we jump to i = 4, so we reach the end.

From starting index i = 2, we jump to i = 3, and then we can’t jump anymore.

From starting index i = 3, we jump to i = 4, so we reach the end.

From starting index i = 4, we are already at the end.

In total, there are 3 different starting indices i = 1, i = 3, and i = 4, where we can reach the end with

some number of jumps.

Example 3:

Input: arr = [5,1,3,4,2]

Output: 3

Explanation: We can reach the end from starting indices 1, 2, and 4.
