    Practice problems / House robber on a circle

    House robber on a circle

    Mediumdynamic programmingarray

    Like the street robber problem, but the houses form a circle: the first and last are neighbours. You can't rob two adjacent houses. Return the most you can take.

    Example 1

    Input:  nums = [2,3,2]
    Output: 3

    Example 2

    Input:  nums = [1,2,3,1]
    Output: 4

    Constraints

    • 1 ≤ nums.length ≤ 1000
    • 0 ≤ nums[i] ≤ 1000

    Submit checks your solution against 8 tests, including hidden ones.

    /**
     * @param {int[]} nums
     * @return {int}
     */
    function robCircle(nums) {
      
    }
