You have 4 cards each containing a number from 1 to 9. You need to judge whether they could operated through*
,/
,+
,-
,(
,)
to get the value of 24.
Example 1:
Input:
[4, 1, 8, 7]
Output:
True
Explanation:
(8-4) * (7-1) = 24
Example 2:
Input:
[1, 2, 1, 2]
Output:
False
Note:
/
represents real division, not integer division. For example, 4 / (1 - 2/3) = 12.-
as a unary operator. For example, with
[1, 1, 1, 1]
as input, the expression
-1 - 1 - 1 - 1
is not allowed.[1, 2, 1, 2]
, we cannot write this as 12 + 12.tag; backtracking
