Code : Min Steps to 1 using DP
1.) Subtract 1 from it. (n = n - 1) ,
2.) If n is divisible by 2, divide by 2.( if n % 2 == 0, then n = n / 2 ) ,
3.) If n is divisible by 3, divide by 3. (if n % 3 == 0, then n = n / 3 ).
The first and the only line of input contains an integer value, 'n'.
Print the minimum number of steps.
1 <= n <= 10 ^ 6
Time Limit: 1 sec
4
2
For n = 4
Step 1 : n = 4 / 2 = 2
Step 2 : n = 2 / 2 = 1
7
3
For n = 7
Step 1 : n = 7 - 1 = 6
Step 2 : n = 6 / 3 = 2
Step 3 : n = 2 / 2 = 1
int solve(int n,vector<int>&dp){ if(n<=1)return 0;

int countStepsToOne(int n){ //Write your code here vector<int>dp(n+1,-1);int ans= solve(n,dp);return ans; }
