Given an array of non-negative integers, you are initially positioned at the first index of the array.

Each element in the array represents your maximum jump length at that position.

Determine if you are able to reach the last index.

Example 1:

Input: [2,3,1,1,4] Output: true Explanation: Jump 1 step from index 0 to 1, then 3 steps to the last index.

Example 2:

Input: [3,2,1,0,4] Output: false Explanation: You will always arrive at index 3 no matter what. Its maximum   jump length is 0, which makes it impossible to reach the last index.

python
class Solution(object):
    def canJump(self, nums):
        """
        :type nums: List[int]
        :rtype: bool
        """
        if not nums: return False
        if  len(nums) == 1: return True
        lenn = len(nums)
        DP = [0] * len(nums)
        DP[0] = nums[0]
        for i in range(1, lenn):
            if DP[i-1] < 1: DP[i] = 0
            else:
                DP[i] = max(DP[i-1]-1, nums[i])

        # print 'DP', DP
        return DP[-2] >= 1
