1688. Count of Matches in Tournament-比赛中的配对次数

You are given an integer n, the number of teams in a tournament that has strange rules:

If the current number of teams is even, each team gets paired with another team. A total of n / 2 matches are played, and n / 2 teams advance to the next round.
If the current number of teams is odd, one team randomly advances in the tournament, and the rest gets paired. A total of (n – 1) / 2 matches are played, and (n – 1) / 2 + 1 teams advance to the next round.
Return the number of matches played in the tournament until a winner is decided.

Example 1:
Input: n = 7
Output: 6
Explanation: Details of the tournament:

• 1st Round: Teams = 7, Matches = 3, and 4 teams advance.
• 2nd Round: Teams = 4, Matches = 2, and 2 teams advance.
• 3rd Round: Teams = 2, Matches = 1, and 1 team is declared the winner.
  Total number of matches = 3 + 2 + 1 = 6.

Example 2:
Input: n = 14
Output: 13
Explanation: Details of the tournament:

• 1st Round: Teams = 14, Matches = 7, and 7 teams advance.
• 2nd Round: Teams = 7, Matches = 3, and 4 teams advance.
• 3rd Round: Teams = 4, Matches = 2, and 2 teams advance.
• 4th Round: Teams = 2, Matches = 1, and 1 team is declared the winner.
  Total number of matches = 7 + 3 + 2 + 1 = 13.

Constraints:

• 1 <= n <= 200

Solution in python:

class Solution:
    def numberOfMatches(self, n: int) -> int:
        number = 0
        while n > 1:
            if n % 2 == 0:
                n //= 2
                number += n
            else:
                number += n//2
                n = n//2 + 1
        return number
