0717. 1-bit and 2-bit Characters

https://leetcode.com/problems/1-bit-and-2-bit-characters

Description

We have two special characters:

  • The first character can be represented by one bit 0.

  • The second character can be represented by two bits (10 or 11).

Given a binary array bits that ends with 0, return true if the last character must be a one-bit character.

Example 1:

**Input:** bits = [1,0,0]
**Output:** true
**Explanation:** The only way to decode it is two-bit character and one-bit character.
So the last character is one-bit character.

Example 2:

**Input:** bits = [1,1,1,0]
**Output:** false
**Explanation:** The only way to decode it is two-bit character and two-bit character.
So the last character is not one-bit character.

Constraints:

  • 1 <= bits.length <= 1000

  • bits[i] is either 0 or 1.
