You are climbing a stair case. It takes n steps to reach to the top.
Each time you can either climb 1 or 2 steps. In how many distinct ways can you climb to the top?
Solution:
Search for "" and calculate the nth element in the sequence.
Time complexity is O(n), space complexity is O(1).
Accepted code:
1 class Solution { 2 public: 3 int climbStairs(int n) { 4 // Note: The Solution object is instantiated only once and is reused by each test case. 5 int f1, f2, f3; 6 7 f1 = 0; 8 f2 = 1; 9 10 if(n <= 0){11 return 0;12 }13 14 for(int i = 0; i < n; ++i){15 f3 = f1 + f2;16 f1 = f2;17 f2 = f3;18 }19 20 return f3;21 }22 };
