Build an Array With Stack Operations

Given an array target and an integer n. In each iteration, you will read a number from  list = {1,2,3..., n}.

Build the target array using the following operations:

You are guaranteed that the target array is strictly increasing, only containing numbers between 1 to n inclusive.

Return the operations to build the target array.

You are guaranteed that the answer is unique.

 

Example 1:

Input: target = [1,3], n = 3
Output: ["Push","Push","Pop","Push"]
Explanation: 
Read number 1 and automatically push in the array -> [1]
Read number 2 and automatically push in the array then Pop it -> [1]
Read number 3 and automatically push in the array -> [1,3]

Example 2:

Input: target = [1,2,3], n = 3
Output: ["Push","Push","Push"]

Example 3:

Input: target = [1,2], n = 4
Output: ["Push","Push"]
Explanation: You only need to read the first 2 numbers and stop.

Example 4:

Input: target = [2,3,4], n = 4
Output: ["Push","Pop","Push","Push","Push"]

Solution:

class Solution {
    public List<String> buildArray(int[] target, int n) {
        List<String> res = new ArrayList();
        int curr = 1;
        for (int i = 0; i < target.length; i ++) {
            int val = target[i];
            if (val == curr) {
                curr ++;
                res.add("Push");
            } else {
                while (val != curr) {
                    curr ++;
                    res.add("Push");
                    res.add("Pop");
                }
                res.add("Push");
                curr ++;
            }
        }
        return res;
    }
