Reaching Points
Explore the problem of transforming a starting point into a target point by applying permitted operations. Understand how to use modified binary search strategies to determine if such a transformation is possible within given constraints. This lesson guides you in breaking down the problem, enhancing your problem-solving skills for coding interviews.

Statement
Given four integers sx, sy, tx, and ty, determine whether it is possible to transform the point (sx, sy) into the point (tx, ty) through any number of operations. Return true if such a transformation is possible, or false otherwise.
At each step, a point (x, y) can be transformed into either (x, x + y) or (x + y, y).
