Suppose we have a string, we have to sort the characters based on the frequency. So if the string is like “abbbacbcc”, then the output will be “bbbbcccaa”To solve this, we will follow these steps −create an array of pairs called v, create one map mfor all characters in string, increase value of m[character] by 1i := first element of mapwhile map has elementsinsert (i.second, i.first) into vand increase i to point to the next elementsort the vector vans := an empty stringfor i := 0 to size of vt := first element of v[i]while t is not 0ans := ...

We have to create one function to find the nth super ugly number. The super ugly numbers are positive numbers whose all prime factors are in the given prime list primes of size k. So if the n is 12 and primes are [2, 7, 13, 19], then the output will be 32, this is because [1, 2, 4, 7, 8, 13, 14, 16, 19, 26, 28, 32] is the sequence of 12 super ugly numbers.To solve this, we will follow these steps −Create a data structure triplet, with num, prime and idxif n is 1, then return 1, create ...

Suppose we have four lists A, B, C, D of integer values, we have to compute how many tuples (i, j, k, l) there are such that A[i] + B[j] + C[k] + D[l] is zero. Consider all A, B, C, D have same length of N where 0 ≤ N ≤ 500. Remember all integers are in the range of -228 to 228 - 1 and the result is guaranteed to be at most 231 - 1. So if the inputs are A = [1, 2], B = [-2, -1], C = [-1, 2], D = [0, 2], then ...

Suppose we have a non-empty integer array, we have to find the minimum number of moves that are required to make all array elements equal, where a move is incrementing or decrementing a selected element by 1. So when the array is like [1, 2, 3], then the output will be 2, as 1 will be incremented to 2, and 3 will be decremented to 2.To solve this, we will follow these steps −sort the array numsset counter as 0for i in nums, docounter := counter + absolute of (i – nums[length of nums / 2])return counterExample(Python)Let us see the ...

Suppose we have a nested list of integers; we have to implement an iterator to flatten it. Each element is either an integer, or a list. The elements of that list may also be integers or other lists. So if the input is like [[1, 1], 2, [1, 1]], then the output will be [1, 1, 2, 1, 1]To solve this, we will follow these steps −In the initializing section, it will take the nested list, this will work as follows −set res as empty list, index := 0, call getVal(nestedList)The getVal() will take nestedIntegers, this will work as −for ...

Suppose we have a list of non-negative integers, a1, a2, ..., an, and another value, that is target, S. Now we have 2 symbols + and -. For each integer, we should choose one from + and - as its new symbol. we have to find out how many ways to assign symbols to make sum of integers same as the target value S. So if the numbers are [1, 1, 1, 1, 1], and S = 3, then the output will be 5, as the combinations are – 1 + 1 + 1 + 1 + 1 = 3, ...

Suppose we have a data structure that supports all following operations in average O(1) time.insert(val) − This will Insert an item val to the set if that is not already present.remove(val) − This will remove an item val from the set if it presents.getRandom − This will return a random element from current set of elements. Each element must have the same probability of being returned.To solve this, we will follow these steps −For the initialization, define a parent map, and elements arrayFor the insert() function, it will take val as inputif val is not present in parent map, or ...

Suppose we have a circular array (the next element of the last element is the first element of the array), we have to display the Next Greater Number for every element. Here the Next Greater Number of a number x is the first greater number to its traversing-order next in the array, this means we could search circularly to find its next greater number. If it is not present, then it will be -1. So if the numbers are [1, 2, 1, 3, 2, 1], then output will be: [2, 3, 3, -1, 3, 2]To solve this, we will follow ...

Suppose we have a string s and a non-empty string p, we have to find all the start indices of p's anagrams in s. The strings consist of lowercase letters only and the length of both strings s and p will not be larger than 20 and 100. So for example, if s: "cbaebabacd" p: "abc", then the output will be [0, 6], at index 0, it is “cba”, and another is “bac”, these are the anagrams of “abc”.To solve this, we will follow these steps −Define a map m, n := size of s, set left := 0, right ...

Suppose we have coins of different denominations and a total amount of money. we have to Write a module to compute the number of combinations that make up that amount. we can assume that we have infinite number of each kind of coin. So if the amount is 5 and coins are [1, 2, 5], then there are four combinations. (1+1+1+1+1), (1+1+1+2), (1+2+2), (5)To solve this, we will follow these steps −create one array dp of size amount + 1dp[0] := 1n := size of coins arrayfor i in range 0 to n – 1for j in range coins[i] to ...
