Solution: Jump Game
Explore how to solve the Jump Game problem by implementing a greedy approach in Go. Understand how to work backward from the last index and update the target to determine if the start can reach the end. This lesson covers both naive and optimized strategies with time and space complexity analysis.
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 (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:
-
nums.length
