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
ith
move (starting fromi == 1
toi == numMoves
), you takei
steps 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 <= 109
target != 0
