Robot Return to Origin
There is a robot starting at the position (0, 0), the origin, on a 2D plane. You receive a sequence of its moves, judge if this robot ends up at (0, 0) after it completes its moves.
You receive a string moves that represents the move sequence of the robot where moves[i] represents its i^th move. Valid moves are 'R' (right), 'L' (left), 'U' (up), and 'D' (down).
Find and provide true if the robot returns to the origin after it finishes all of its moves, or false otherwise.
Note: The way that the robot is "facing" is irrelevant. 'R' will always make the robot move to the right once, 'L' will always make it move left, etc. Also, assume that the magnitude of the robot's movement is the same for each move.
Input: moves = "UD"
Output: true Explanation: The robot moves up once, and then down once. All moves have the same magnitude, so it ended up at the origin where it started. Therefore, we provide true.
Input: moves = "LL"
Output: false Explanation: The robot moves left twice. It ends up two "moves" to the left of the origin. We provide false because it is not at the origin at the end of its moves.
Constraints
1 <= moves.length <= 2 * 10^4movesonly contains the characters'U','D','L'and'R'.
