70. Climbing Stairs

Easy

You are climbing a staircase. It takes n steps to reach the top.

Each time you can either climb 1 or 2 steps. In how many distinct ways can you climb to the top?

Example 1:

Input: n = 2

Output: 2

Explanation: There are two ways to climb to the top. 1. 1 step + 1 step 2. 2 steps

Example 2:

Input: n = 3

Output: 3

Explanation: There are three ways to climb to the top. 1. 1 step + 1 step + 1 step 2. 1 step + 2 steps 3. 2 steps + 1 step

Constraints:

Solution

# @param {Integer} n
# @return {Integer}
def climb_stairs(n)
  return n if n < 2

  cache = Array.new(n)
  cache[0] = 1
  cache[1] = 2

  (2...n).each do |i|
    cache[i] = cache[i - 1] + cache[i - 2]
  end

  cache[n - 1]
end
