Problem: Jump Game I

Medium
30 min
Explore how to solve the Jump Game problem by applying greedy algorithms. Understand how to assess an integer array to check whether you can reach its last index by jumping through permissible steps. This lesson helps you grasp optimization strategies used in common coding interview questions.

Statement

You are given an integer array nums, where each element represents the maximum number of steps you can move forward from that position. You always start at index 00 (the first element), and at each step, you may jump to any of the next positions within the range allowed by the current element’s value. Return TRUE if you can reach the last index, or FALSE otherwise.

Constraints:

  • 11 \leq nums.length 103\leq 10^3
  • 00 \leq nums[i] 103\leq 10^3
