0754. Reach a Number
https://leetcode.com/problems/reach-a-number
Description
You are standing at position 0 on an infinite number line. There is a destination at position target.
You can make some number of moves numMoves so that:
On each move, you can either go left or right.
During the
ithmove (starting fromi == 1toi == numMoves), you takeisteps in the chosen direction.
Given the integer target, return the minimum number of moves required (i.e., the minimum numMoves) to reach the destination.
Example 1:
**Input:** target = 2
**Output:** 3
**Explanation:**
On the 1st move, we step from 0 to 1 (1 step).
On the 2nd move, we step from 1 to -1 (2 steps).
On the 3rd move, we step from -1 to 2 (3 steps).Example 2:
**Input:** target = 3
**Output:** 2
**Explanation:**
On the 1st move, we step from 0 to 1 (1 step).
On the 2nd move, we step from 1 to 3 (2 steps).Constraints:
-109 <= target <= 109target != 0
