Leetcode Flip Game II

标签：

You are playing the following Flip Game with your friend: Given a string that contains only these two characters: + and -, you and your friend take turns to flip twoconsecutive "++" into "--". The game ends when a person can no longer make a move and therefore the other person will be the winner.

Write a function to determine if the starting player can guarantee a win.

For example, given s = "++++", return true. The starting player can guarantee a win by flipping the middle "++" to become "+--+".

Java code

public class Solution {
    public boolean canWin(String s) {
        for(int i = 0; i < s.length()-1; i++){
            if(s.charAt(i) == ‘+‘ && s.charAt(i+1) == ‘+‘ && !canWin(s.substring(0,i)+"--" + s.substring(i+2))){
                return true;
            }
        }
        return false;
    }
}
