Given a circular array of size N. The task is to check if, for every index, i starting from 0 to N-1, there exists an index j that is not equal to i such that the sum of all the numbers in the clockwise direction from i to j is equal to the sum of all numbers in the anticlockwise direction from i to j.

Examples:

Input: a[] = {1, 4, 1, 4} 
Output: Yes 
The circular array is 1->4->1->4. 
for index 0, j will be 2, then sum of elements from index 0 to 2 in clockwise direction will be 1 + 4 + 1 = 6 and the sum of elements from index 0 to 2 in anticlockwise direction will be 1 + 4 + 1 = 6. 
for index 1, j will be 3, then sum of elements from index 1 to 3 in clockwise direction will be 4 + 1 + 4 = 9 and the sum of elements from index 1 to 3 in anticlockwise direction will be 4 + 1 + 4 = 9. 
for index 2, j will be 0, then sum of elements from index 2 to 0 in clockwise direction will be 1 + 4 + 1 = 6 and the sum of elements from index 2 to 0 in anticlockwise direction will be 1 + 4 + 1 = 6
for index 3, j will be 1, then sum of elements from index 3 to 1 in clockwise direction will be 4 + 1 + 4 = 9 and the sum of elements from index 3 to 1 in anticlockwise direction will be 4 + 1 + 4 = 9

Input: a[] = {1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1} 
Output: Yes

Approach: 

  • When N is odd, the answer will be “NO” always as it is not possible to find an index j for every index i.
  • If N is even, then check if the opposite element is exactly same for every index i, then the answer is “YES”.
  • If the any of the index’s opposite element i.e., a[(i+(n/2))] is not equal to a[i], then the answer will be “NO”.

Implementation:

C++




// C++ program to check if the
// number lies in given range
#include <bits/stdc++.h>
using namespace std;
 
// Function that returns the maximum element.
bool check(int a[], int n)
{
 
    // check for odd
    if (n % 2 == 1)
        return false;
 
    // check if the opposite element is same
    // as a[i]
    for (int i = 0; i < n / 2; i++) {
        if (a[i] != a[i + (n / 2)])
            return false;
    }
 
    return true;
}
 
// Driver code
int main()
{
    int a[] = { 1, 4, 1, 4 };
 
    int n = sizeof(a) / sizeof(a[0]);
 
    if (check(a, n))
        cout << "YES";
    else
        cout << "NO";
 
    return 0;
}

    //Function that returns the maximum element.

    {
 
     // check for odd
     if (n % 2 == 1)
         return false;
 
     // check if the opposite element is same
     // as a[i]
     for (int i = 0; i < n / 2; i++) {
         if (a[i] != a[i + (n / 2)])
             return false;
     }
 
     return true;
    }
 
    //Driver code
    public static void main(String[] args) {
         
        int a[] = { 1, 4, 1, 4 };
 
         int n = a.length;
 
         if (check(a, n))
             System.out.println("YES");
         else
             System.out.println("NO");
    }
}
