Count the number of operations required to reduce the given number

Given an integer k and an array op[], in a single operation op[0] will be added to k and then in the second operation k = k + op[1] and so on in a circular manner until k > 0. The task is to print the operation number in which k will be reduced to ? 0. If it impossible to reduce k with the given operations then print -1.
Examples: 
 

Input: op[] = {-60, 10, -100}, k = 100 
Output:
Operation 1: 100 – 60 = 40 
Operation 2: 40 + 10 = 50 
Operation 3: 50 – 100 = -50
Input: op[] = {1, 1, -1}, k = 10 
Output: -1
Input: op[] = {-60, 65, -1, 14, -25}, k = 100000 
Output: 71391 
 

 

Approach: Count the number of times all the operations can be performed on the number k without actually reducing it to get the result. Then update count = times * n where n is the number of operations. Now, for the remaining operations perform each of the operation one by one and increment count. The first operation when k is reduced to ? 0, print the count.
Below is the implementation of the above approach: 
 

C++




// C++ implementation of the approach
 
#include <bits/stdc++.h>
using namespace std;
 
 
int operations(int op[], int n, int k)
    {
        int i, count = 0;
 
        // To store the normalized value
        // of all the operations
        int nVal = 0;
 
        // Minimum possible value for
        // a series of operations
        int minimum = INT_MAX;
        for (i = 0; i < n; i++)
        {
            nVal += op[i];
            minimum  = min(minimum , nVal);
 
            // If k can be reduced with
            // first (i + 1) operations
            if ((k + nVal) <= 0)
                return (i + 1);
        }
 
        // Impossible to reduce k
        if (nVal >= 0)
            return -1;
 
        // Number of times all the operations
        // can be performed on k without
        // reducing it to <= 0
        int times = (k - abs(minimum )) / abs(nVal);
 
        // Perform operations
        k = (k - (times * abs(nVal)));
        count = (times * n);
 
        // Final check
        while (k > 0) {
            for (i = 0; i < n; i++) {
                k = k + op[i];
                count++;
                if (k <= 0)
                    break;
            }
        }
 
        return count;
    }
 
// Driver code
int main() {
     
        int op[] = { -60, 65, -1, 14, -25 };
        int n = sizeof(op)/sizeof(op[0]);
        int k = 100000;
 
        cout << operations(op, n, k) << endl;
}

Java




// Java implementation of the approach

        // of all the operations

        // Minimum possible value for
        // a series of operations
        int min = Integer.MAX_VALUE;
        for (i = 0; i < n; i++) {
            nVal += op[i];
            min = Math.min(min, nVal);
 
            // If k can be reduced with
            // first (i + 1) operations
            if ((k + nVal) <= 0)
                return (i + 1);
        }
 
        // Impossible to reduce k
        if (nVal >= 0)
            return -1;
 
        // Number of times all the operations
        // can be performed on k without
        // reducing it to <= 0
        int times = (k - Math.abs(min)) / Math.abs(nVal);
 
        // Perform operations
        k = (k - (times * Math.abs(nVal)));
        count = (times * n);
 
        // Final check
        while (k > 0) {
            for (i = 0; i < n; i++) {
                k = k + op[i];
                count++;
                if (k <= 0)
                    break;
            }
        }
 
        return count;
    }
 
    // Driver code
    public static void main(String[] args)
    {
        int op[] = { -60, 65, -1, 14, -25 };
        int n = op.length;
        int k = 100000;
 
        System.out.print(operations(op, n, k));
    }
}
