Your car starts at position 0 and speed +1 on an infinite number line. Your car can go into negative positions. Your car drives automatically according to a sequence of instructions 'A' (accelerate) and 'R' (reverse):
For example, after commands "AAR", your car goes to positions 0 --> 1 --> 3 --> 3, and your speed goes to 1 --> 2 --> 4 --> -1.
Given a target position target, return the length of the shortest sequence of instructions to get there.
Examples
Example 1
Input: target = 3
Output: 2
Explanation:
The shortest instruction sequence is "AA".
Your position goes from 0 --> 1 --> 3.
Example 2
Input: target = 6
Output: 5
Explanation:
The shortest instruction sequence is "AAARA".
Your position goes from 0 --> 1 --> 3 --> 7 --> 7 --> 6.
