1460. Make Two Arrays Equal by Reversing Subarrays

EasyArray Preparing judge… LeetCode

You are given two integer arrays of equal length target and arr. In one step, you can select any non-empty subarray of arr and reverse it. You are allowed to make any number of steps.

Return true if you can make arr equal to target or false otherwise.

 

Example 1:

Input: target = [1,2,3,4], arr = [2,4,1,3]
Output: true
Explanation: You can follow the next steps to convert arr to target:
1- Reverse subarray [2,4,1], arr becomes [1,4,2,3]
2- Reverse subarray [4,2], arr becomes [1,2,4,3]
3- Reverse subarray [4,3], arr becomes [1,2,3,4]
There are multiple ways to convert arr to target, this is not the only way to do so.

Example 2:

Input: target = [7], arr = [7]
Output: true
Explanation: arr is equal to target without any reverses.

Example 3:

Input: target = [3,7,9], arr = [3,7,11]
Output: false
Explanation: arr does not have value 9 and it can never be converted to target.

 

Constraints:

  • target.length == arr.length
  • 1 <= target.length <= 1000
  • 1 <= target[i] <= 1000
  • 1 <= arr[i] <= 1000
ArrayHash TableSorting

Hints

Hint 1
Each element of target should have a corresponding element in arr, and if it doesn't have a corresponding element, return false.
Hint 2
To solve it easiely you can sort the two arrays and check if they are equal.
