#729 - My Calendar I
Problem Description
You are implementing a program to use as your calendar. We can add a new event if adding the event will not cause a double booking.
A double booking happens when two events have some non-empty intersection (i.e., some moment is common to both events.).
The event can be represented as a pair of integers startTime and endTime that represents a booking on the half-open interval [startTime, endTime), the range of real numbers x such that startTime <= x < endTime.
Implement the MyCalendar class:
- MyCalendar() Initializes the calendar object.
- boolean book(int startTime, int endTime) Returns true if the event can be added to the calendar successfully without causing a double booking. Otherwise, return false and do not add the event to the calendar.
Solution
class MyCalendar {
constructor() {
this.events = [];
}
/**
* @param {number} startTime
* @param {number} endTime
* @returns {boolean}
*/
book(startTime, endTime) {
const event = [startTime, endTime];
const index = this.findInsertIndex(startTime);
if (this.overlapsPrevious(index - 1, startTime) || this.overlapsNext(index, endTime)) {
return false;
}
this.events.splice(index, 0, event);
return true;
}
/**
* @param {number} startTime
* @returns {number}
*/
findInsertIndex(startTime) {
let left = 0;
let right = this.events.length;
while (left < right) {
const mid = Math.floor((left + right) / 2);
if (this.events[mid][0] > startTime) {
right = mid;
} else {
left = mid + 1;
}
}
return left;
}
/**
* @param {number} prevIndex
* @param {number} startTime
* @returns {boolean}
*/
overlapsPrevious(prevIndex, startTime) {
return prevIndex >= 0 && this.events[prevIndex][1] > startTime;
}
/**
* @param {number} nextIndex
* @param {number} endTime
* @returns {boolean}
*/
overlapsNext(nextIndex, endTime) {
return nextIndex < this.events.length && this.events[nextIndex][0] < endTime;
}
}
