Given an integer n, return true if n is a power of three (that is, n equals 3 raised to some non-negative integer power). Return false for null, zero, or negative values.

Example 1:

Input: n = 27 Output: true Explanation: 27 equals 3 raised to the power 3, so it is a power of three.

Example 2:

Input: n = 1 Output: true Explanation: 1 equals 3 raised to the power 0, so it is a power of three.

Example 3:

Input: n = 10 Output: false Explanation: 10 cannot be expressed as 3 raised to any non-negative integer, so it is not a power of three.

Example 4:

Input: n = 0 Output: false Explanation: Zero is not a power of three.
