Hexspeak in Python
Suppose a decimal number can be converted to its Hexspeak representation by converting it to an uppercase hexadecimal string at first, after that replacing all occurrences of the digit 0 with the letter O, and the digit 1 with the letter I.This kind of representation is valid if and only if it consists only of the letters in the set {"A", "B", "C", "D", "E", "F", "I", "O"}.So we have a string num representing a decimal integer N, we have to find the Hexspeak representation of N if it is correct, otherwise return "ERROR". So if num = “257”, then ...
Read MoreDecode String in C++
Suppose we have an encoded string; we have to return its decoded string. The rule for encoding is: k[encoded_string], this indicates where the encoded_string inside the square brackets is being repeated exactly k times. We can assume that the original data does not contain any numeric characters and that digits are only for those repeat numbers, k. So if the input is like “1[ba]2[na]”, then the output will be “banana”.To solve this, we will follow these steps −create one empty stack, set i := 0while i < size of a stringif s[i] is ‘]’res := delete element from the stack ...
Read MoreLongest Substring with At Least K Repeating Characters in C++
Suppose we have a string s, and we have to find the length of the longest substring T of that given string (consists of lowercase letters only) such that every character in T appears no less than k times. So if the string is “ababbc” and k = 2, then the output will be 3 and longest substring will be “ababb”, as there are two a’s and three b’s.To solve this, we will follow these steps −create one recursive function called longestSubstring(), this takes string s and size kif k = 1, then return the size of the stringif size ...
Read MoreQueue Reconstruction by Height in C++
Consider we have a random list of people standing in a queue. If each person is described by a pair of integers (h, k), where h is the height and k is the number of people in front of him, who have a height greater than or equal to h. We have to define one method to reconstruct the queue. So if the given array is like [[7, 0], [4, 4], [7, 1], [5, 0], [6, 1], [5, 2]], then the output will be [[5, 0], [7, 0], [5, 2], [6, 1], [4, 4], [7, 1]]To solve this, we will ...
Read MorePartition Equal Subset Sum in C++
Suppose we have a non-empty array containing only positive numbers, we have to find if the array can be partitioned into two subsets such that the sum of elements in both subsets is the same. So if the input is like [1, 5, 11, 5], the output will be true. As this array can be partitioned as [1, 5, 5] and [11]To solve this, we will follow these steps −n := size of the arraysum := 0for i := 0 to n – 1sum := sum + nums[i]if sum is odd, return falsesum := sum / 2create one array called ...
Read MoreWord Ladder in C++
Suppose we have two words (beginWord and endWord), and we have dictionary's word list, find the length of shortest transformation sequence from beginWord to endWord, such that −Only one letter can be converted at a time.In each transformed word must exist in the word list. The beginWord is not a transformed word.We have to keep in mind that −Return 0 when there is no such change sequence.All words have the same length.All words contain only lowercase characters.We can assume no duplicates in the word list.So if the input is like: beginWord = "hit", endWord = "cog", and wordlist = ["hot", ...
Read MoreReconstruct Original Digits from English in C++
Suppose we have a non-empty string containing an out-of-order English representation of digits 0-9, output the digits in ascending order. There are some properties −Input is guaranteed to be valid and can be transformed to its original digits. That means invalid inputs such as "abc" or "zerone" are not permitted.Input length is less than 50, 000.So if the input is like “fviefuro”, then the output will be 45.To solve this, we will follow these steps −nums := an array that is holding the numbers in English letter from 0 to 9.make one array count of size 10ans := an empty ...
Read MoreCourse Schedule in Python
Suppose there are a total of numCourses courses we have to take, labeled from 0 to numCourses-1. Some courses may have prerequisites, for example to take course 0 we have to first take course 1, which is expressed using a pair: [0, 1]. Suppose there are total number of courses that is provided and a list of prerequisite pairs, we have to check whether is it possible for you to finish all courses?So if the input is like − numCourses = 2 and prerequisites = [[1, 0]], then the result will be true, because there are a total of 2 ...
Read MoreLongest Repeating Character Replacement in C++
Suppose we have given a string s that consists of only uppercase letters, we can perform at most k operations on that string. In one operation, we can select any character of the string and change it to any other uppercase letters. We have to find the length of the longest sub-string containing all repeating letters we can get after performing the above operations. So if the input is like: “ABAB” and k = 2, then the output will be 4. This is because two ‘A’s with two ‘B’s or vice versa.To solve this, we will follow these steps −maxCount ...
Read MoreAdd and Search Word - Data structure design in C++
Suppose we have to design a data structure that supports the following two operations −addWord(word)search(word)The search(word) method can search a literal word or a regular expression string containing only letters a-z or .. A . means it can represent any one letter. So for example, if we add some words like “bad”, “dad”, “mad”, then search for search(“pad”) → false, search(“bad”) → true, search(“.ad”) → true and search(“b..”) → trueTo solve this, we will follow these steps −There are some methods, initially define insertNode(), this will take the head reference and the string s, this will work as follows −curr ...
