题目：

You have a pointer at index 0 in an array of size arrLen. At each step, you can move 1 position to the left, 1 position to the right in the array or stay in the same place  (The pointer should not be placed outside the array at any time).

Given two integers steps and arrLen, return the number of ways such that your pointer still at index 0 after exactly steps steps.

Since the answer may be too large, return it modulo 10^9 + 7.

Example 1:

Input: steps = 3, arrLen = 2
Output: 4
Explanation: There are 4 differents ways to stay at index 0 after 3 steps.
Right, Left, Stay
Stay, Right, Left
Right, Stay, Left
Stay, Stay, Stay

Example 2:

Input: steps = 2, arrLen = 4
Output: 2
Explanation: There are 2 differents ways to stay at index 0 after 2 steps
Right, Left
Stay, Stay

Example 3:

Input: steps = 4, arrLen = 2
Output: 8

Constraints:

• 1 <= steps <= 500
• 1 <= arrLen <= 10^6

题解：

For each step, it could go left, right or stay.

Let dp[i] denotes number of ways to get to i.

next[i] = dp[i - 1] + dp[i] + dp[i + 1].

We only care about len = math.min(steps / 2 + 1, arrLen) since if it is beyond steps / 2 + 1, then it could not come back to 0.

To handle i == 0 and i == dp.length - 1 with i- 1 and i + 1, initialize dp as len + 2. Then first and last would always be 0.

Time Complexity: O(steps * len). len = Math.min(steps / 2 + 1, arrLen).

Sapce: O(len).

AC Java:

 1 class Solution {
 2     public int numWays(int steps, int arrLen) {
 3         int mod = 1000000007;
 4         int len = Math.min(steps / 2 + 1,  arrLen);
 5         
 6         long [] dp = new long[len + 2];
 7         dp[1] = 1; 
 8         while(steps-- > 0){
 9             long [] next = new long[len + 2];
10             for(int i = 1; i < dp.length - 1; i++){
11                 next[i] = (dp[i - 1] + dp[i] + dp[i + 1]) % mod;
12             }
13             
14             dp = next;
15         }
16         
17         return (int)dp[1];
18     }
19 }
