If z liters of water is measurable, you must have z liters of water contained within one or both buckets by the end.
Operations allowed:
- Fill any of the jugs completely with water.
- Empty any of the jugs.
- Pour water from one jug into another till the other jug is completely full or the first jug itself is empty.
Input: x = 3, y = 5, z = 4 Output: TrueExample 2:
Input: x = 2, y = 6, z = 5 Output: FalseCredits:
Special thanks to @vinod23 for adding this problem and creating all test cases
another key to understand this solution is the calculation of greatest common divisor.
