292\. Nim Game
Easy
You are playing the following Nim Game with your friend:
* Initially, there is a heap of stones on the table.
* You and your friend will alternate taking turns, and **you go first**.
* On each turn, the person whose turn it is will remove 1 to 3 stones from the heap.
* The one who removes the last stone is the winner.
Given `n`, the number of stones in the heap, return `true` _if you can win the game assuming both you and your friend play optimally, otherwise return_ `false`.
**Example 1:**
**Input:** n = 4
**Output:** false
**Explanation:** These are the possible outcomes: 1. You remove 1 stone. Your friend removes 3 stones, including the last stone. Your friend wins. 2. You remove 2 stones. Your friend removes 2 stones, including the last stone. Your friend wins. 3. You remove 3 stones. Your friend removes the last stone. Your friend wins. In all outcomes, your friend wins.
**Example 2:**
**Input:** n = 1
**Output:** true
**Example 3:**
**Input:** n = 2
**Output:** true
**Constraints:**
* 1 <= n <= 231 - 1
