<h2><a href="https://leetcode.com/problems/elimination-game/">390. Elimination Game</a></h2><h3>Medium</h3><hr><div><p>You have a list <code>arr</code> of all integers in the range <code>[1, n]</code> sorted in a strictly increasing order. Apply the following algorithm on <code>arr</code>:</p>

<ul>
	<li>Starting from left to right, remove the first number and every other number afterward until you reach the end of the list.</li>
	<li>Repeat the previous step again, but this time from right to left, remove the rightmost number and every other number from the remaining numbers.</li>
	<li>Keep repeating the steps again, alternating left to right and right to left, until a single number remains.</li>
</ul>

<p>Given the integer <code>n</code>, return <em>the last number that remains in</em> <code>arr</code>.</p>

<p><strong class="example">Example 1:</strong></p>

<pre><strong>Input:</strong> n = 9
<strong>Output:</strong> 6
<strong>Explanation:</strong>
arr = [<u>1</u>, 2, <u>3</u>, 4, <u>5</u>, 6, <u>7</u>, 8, <u>9</u>]
arr = [2, <u>4</u>, 6, <u>8</u>]
arr = [<u>2</u>, 6]
arr = [6]
