Suppose you have a long flowerbed in which some of the plots are planted and some are not. However, flowers cannot be planted in adjacent plots - they would compete for water and both would die.
Given a flowerbed (represented as an array containing 0 and 1, where 0 means empty and 1 means not empty), and a number n, return if nnew flowers can be planted in it without violating the no-adjacent-flowers rule.
Example 1:
Input: flowerbed = [1,0,0,0,1], n = 1 Output: True
Example 2:
Input: flowerbed = [1,0,0,0,1], n = 2 Output: False
Note:
- The input array won't violate no-adjacent-flowers rule.
- The input array size is in the range of [1, 20000].
- n is a non-negative integer which won't exceed the input array size.
