Problem: Can Place Flowers

Medium
30 min
Explore the application of greedy algorithms to solve the Can Place Flowers problem, where you assess a flowerbed array to check if planting n new flowers without adjacency is possible. Learn to implement efficient solutions and understand constraints in optimization problems.

Statement

Given an integer list flowerbed, each element is either 00 (indicating an empty plot) or 11 (indicating a planted plot), and an integer n. Determine if n new flowers can be planted without violating the rule that no two flowers can be planted in adjacent plots. Return TRUE if it’s possible to plant all n flowers. Otherwise, return FALSE.

Constraints:

  • 11\leq flowerbed.length 103\leq10^3

  • 00\leq n \leq flowerbed.length

  • flowerbed[i] is 00 or 11.

  • There are no two adjacent flowers in the flowerbed.
