Given an array arr containing elements from [1...to n]. Each element appears exactly once in the array arr. Given an string str of length n-1. Each character of the string is either 0 or 1. In the array, swapping of the i-th element with (i + 1)-th element can be done as many times as we want, if the i-th character of the string is 1. Our task is to find whether it is possible to sort the array or not in ascending order.
Examples:
Input : arr = {1, 2, 5, 3, 4, 6}
str = "01110"
Output : Yes
Explanation :
Here, we can swap arr[2] and arr[3], and then
swap arr[3] and arr[4].
Input : arr = {1, 2, 5, 3, 4, 6}
str = "01010"
Output : No
Explanation :
Here, the 3rd element of the array i.e. 5 can not
be swapped as the 3rd character of the string is 0.
Therefore it is impossible to sort the array.
Approach Run a loop to length of the string str and calculate the max_element of the array from 0 to i for each i. At each iteration, if the i-th character of the string is '0' and the max_element is greater than i + 1 then, it is impossible to sort the array, otherwise, possible.
Basic implementation of the above approach :
// CPP program to Check if it
// is possible to sort the
// array in ascending order.
#include <bits/stdc++.h>
using namespace std;
// Function to check if it is possible to
// sort the array
string possibleToSort(int* arr, int n, string str)
{
int max_element = -1;
for (long i = 0; i < str.size(); i++) {
// Calculating max_element
// at each iteration.
max_element = max(max_element, arr[i]);
// if we can not swap the i-th element.
if (str[i] == '0') {
// if it is impossible to swap the
// max_element then we can not
// sort the array.
if (max_element > i + 1)
return "No";
}
}
// Otherwise, we can sort the array.
return "Yes";
}
// Driver function
int main()
{
int arr[] = { 1, 2, 5, 3, 4, 6 };
int n = sizeof(arr) / sizeof(arr[0]);
string str = "01110";
cout << possibleToSort(arr, n, str);
return 0;
}

// sort the array in ascending order.

Complexity Analysis:
- Time Complexity: O(n), where n is the size of the given string str
- Auxiliary Space: O(1), as no extra space is used
