Problem URL: Beautiful array

We will use recursion to solve the problem. We will call the helper function on odd numbers and even numbers. We will return the result.

class Solution:
    def beautifulArray(self, n: int) -> List[int]:
        def _beautifulArray(arr):
            if len(arr) <= 2:
                return arr
            return _beautifulArray(arr[::2]) + _beautifulArray(arr[1::2])

        return _beautifulArray(list(range(1, n+1)))

Time complexity: O(n)
Space complexity: O(n)
