Say you have an array for which the ith element is the price of a given stock on day i.
Design an algorithm to find the maximum profit. You may complete as many transactions as you like (ie, buy one and sell one share of the stock multiple times) with the following restrictions:
You may not engage in multiple transactions at the same time (ie, you must sell the stock before you buy again).
After you sell your stock, you cannot buy stock on next day. (ie, cooldown 1 day)
Example:
prices = [1, 2, 3, 0, 2]
maxProfit = 3
transactions = [buy, sell, cooldown, buy, sell]

because of cooldown, after sell, we need cool down one day
buy[i] = Math.max(buy[i - 1] , sell[i - 1] - prices[i]); 兩種情況：在第i天可以不買不賣（cooldown） 維持第i-1的profit；或者i-1 賣掉，在i天買入也榄。取兩種情況的profit
sell[i] = Math.max(sell[i - 1], buy [i - 1] + prices[i]); 也是兩種情況：不買不賣呢燥； 或者賣掉prices[i], profit 為buy [i - 1] + prices[i]。 取兩種情況最大值
