In this problem, we will find the lexicographically smallest string by concatenating the given string’s prefix and its reverse. We can find the lexicographically smallest prefix of the string and get the required string. Problem statement – We have given a string alpha containing the alphabetical characters. We need to construct the lexicographically smallest string, which we can get by concatenating any string prefix with its reverse. Sample examples Input alpha = "welcome"; Output 'wewe’ Explanation – The lexicographically smallest prefix is ‘we’. So, we have concatenated it with its mirror. Input alpha = "tutorialspoint" ...

In this problem, we need to extract the integer from the given string by following the rules in the problem statement. We can solve the problem by checking if the initial substring of the string follows each rule given for the valid integer value. Problem statement – We have given string digits containing the numeric digits, ‘.’, ‘+’, and ‘-‘ characters. We need to extract the valid integer value from the given string. Rules for valid integers It should not contain the leading zeros and whitespaces. The integer should either start with a sign or digits. When any sign ... Read More

In this problem, we need to find the original string from the encrypted string using the given encryption rules. We can get the original string if we use the encryption rules in reverse order. Problem statement – We have given an encrypted string. Also, we have given an array of strings containing multiple strings. We need to find the string from the array, so if we encrypt according to the below rules, we can get the encrypted string. Encryption rules The encrypted string should start with a positive integer, representing a number of uppercase letters in the original string. ... Read More

In this problem, we need to find the largest even valued substring of the given string. The even string always contains the 2, 4, 6, 8, 0 at last. So, we can take all substrings of the given string, and if any substring is even and greater than the maximum substring, we can update the maximum substring value. Problem statement – We have given string str containing numeric digits only. We need to find the largest substring of the str, which is an even integer value. Sample examples Input str = "1234789" Output 123478 Explanation ... Read More

In this problem, we will convert the sentence into Pig Latin. We can append the first character of each word at the last and append ‘ay’ after that. We will see three approaches to convert the given sentence into the Pig Latine. The logic is we can append the first character at the end and remove it from the string. After that, we can append ‘ay’ to the word. Problem statement – We have given a string alpha containing multiple words. We need to encode the string into Pig Latin. Note – The Pig Latine is a word encryption ... Read More

Introduction Logistic Regression is a classification algorithm commonly used our machine learning for binary classification. Although the term "Regression" is in its name it is in fact a classification algorithm. It uses log odds with log loss or cross−entropy loss as the cost function. In this article let us see why Logistic Regression is a classification algorithm in nature. Logistic Regression as a Classification Algorithm A Linear Regression algorithm can be given represented by a linear equation such that a univariate regression model with $\mathrm{\alpha_{0}}$ intercept and $\mathrm{\alpha_{1}}$ can be written as $$\mathrm{y=\alpha_{0}+\alpha_{1}x}$$ The line of best fit is ...

In this problem, we need to check whether the string follows the given pattern. We can solve the problem by mapping each character to the word. If any character of the pattern maps more than one word, we can say that the string is not following the pattern. Problem statement – We have given a ‘pat’ string containing N characters and an ‘alpha’ string containing N words. The given task is to check whether the ‘alpha’ string follows the pattern of the ‘pat’ string. Note – We can say that the ‘alpha’ string follows the pattern when the word matches ... Read More

In this problem, we need to find the shortest string, which is a multiple of string A and string B. The problem is very similar to finding the LCM (Least common multiplier) of two numbers. We can find the LCM of both strings’ lengths and make both strings’ lengths equal to LCM by concatenating to itself. After that, we can compare the string to check if it is possible to get the shortest string which multiple of A and B. Problem statement – We have given string A and string B of different lengths. We need to find the shortest ... Read More

In this problem, we will write the Python code to count the maximum sum of consecutive zeros at the start and end of the string. The problem solution can be divided into two parts. The first part is finding all rotations of the string. The second part is finding the starting and ending consecutive zeros in all rotations of the binary string. Another way to solve the problem is that counting the maximum consecutive zeros can answer the problem. Problem statement – We need to find the total number of maximum consecutive zeros at the start and end ... Read More

In this problem, we need to perform the queries according to the given rules and print the characters from the updated string. We will solve the problem using two different approach. In the first approach, we will use the string rotation concept, and in the second approach, we will use the index customization approach. Problem statement – The task given to us is that perform given queries on the string. We have given the array of queries, and each query contains two integers. Follow the below statements to perform the given queries on the string. (1, l) – ... Read More
