Minimum Number of K Consecutive Bit Flips
Hard
Topics
You are given a binary array nums and an integer target (the flip window length k). In one operation you choose a contiguous subarray of length exactly k and flip every bit in it. Return the minimum number of operations needed to make every element 1, or -1 if it is impossible.
Example 1
Input: nums = [0,1,0], target = 1 Output: 2
Example 2
Input: nums = [1,1,0], target = 2 Output: -1
Example 3
Input: nums = [0,0,0,1,0,1,1,0], target = 3 Output: 3
Constraints
- 1 <= nums.length <= 10^5
- 1 <= target <= nums.length
- nums[i] is 0 or 1.
