In a row of dominoes, A[i]
and B[i]
represent the top and bottom halves of the i
-th domino. (A domino is a tile with two numbers from 1 to 6 - one on each half of the tile.)
We may rotate the i
-th domino, so that A[i]
and B[i]
swap values.
Return the minimum number of rotations so that all the values in A
are the same, or all the values in B
are the same.
If it cannot be done, return -1
.
