365. Water and Jug Problem

Leetcode Solutions

Mathematical Approach using Bézout's Identity

  1. Check if the sum of jug1Capacity and jug2Capacity is less than targetCapacity. If it is, return false as it is impossible to measure more water than the total capacity of both jugs.
  2. Check if jug1Capacity, jug2Capacity, or their sum equals targetCapacity. If any of these conditions are true, return true.
  3. Calculate the GCD of jug1Capacity and jug2Capacity.
  4. Check if targetCapacity is divisible by the GCD. If it is, return true; otherwise, return false.
