66 Plus One - Easy

Problem:

You are given a large integer represented as an integer array digits, where each digits[i] is the ith digit of the integer. The digits are ordered from most significant to least significant in left-to-right order. The large integer does not contain any leading 0's.

Increment the large integer by one and return the resulting array of digits.

Example 1:

Input: digits = [1,2,3] Output: [1,2,4] Explanation: The array represents the integer 123. Incrementing by one gives 123 + 1 = 124. Thus, the result should be [1,2,4].

Example 2:

Input: digits = [4,3,2,1] Output: [4,3,2,2] Explanation: The array represents the integer 4321. Incrementing by one gives 4321 + 1 = 4322. Thus, the result should be [4,3,2,2].

Example 3:

Input: digits = [9] Output: [1,0] Explanation: The array represents the integer 9. Incrementing by one gives 9 + 1 = 10. Thus, the result should be [1,0].

Constraints:

• 1 <= digits.length <= 100
• 0 <= digits[i] <= 9
• digits does not contain any leading 0's.

Problem Analysis:

• simple loop, be careful of edge cases such as [9,9,9] -> [1,0,0,0]

Solutions:

class Solution:
    def plusOne(self, digits: List[int]) -> List[int]:
        for i in range(len(digits) - 1, -1, -1):
            if digits[i] == 9:
                digits[i] = 0
            else:
                digits[i] += 1
                return digits
        return [1] + digits
