Stepping Numbers in C++

Suppose we have two integers low and high, we have to find and show a sorted list of all the Stepping Numbers in the range [low, high] inclusive. A Stepping Number is an integer means all of its adjacent digits have an absolute difference of exactly 1. For example, 321 is a Stepping Number but 421 is not. So if the input is like low := 0 and high := 21, then the result will be [0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 12, 21]To solve this, we will follow these steps −create one array tempmake ...

Suppose in a gold mine grid of size m * n, each cell in this mine has an integer representing the amount of gold in that cell, 0 means that is empty. We have to find the maximum amount of gold that you can collect under the conditions −Every time we are pointing a cell we will collect all the gold in that cell.From our position we can walk one step to the left, right, up or down.We cannot visit the same cell more than once.Never visit a cell with 0 gold.So if the input is like [[0, 6, 0], ...

Suppose we have two binary trees original and cloned and given a reference to a node target in the original tree. The cloned tree is actually a copy of the original tree. We have to find a reference to the same node in the cloned tree.So if the tree is like below and the target is 3, then the output will be 3.To solve this, we will follow these steps −Define a method called solve(), this will take the node1m node2 and targetif node1 is null, then return nullif node1 is target and value of node 1 is the value ...

Suppose a die simulator generates a random number from 1 to 6 for each roll. We want to introduced a constraint to the generator such that it cannot roll the number i more than rollMax[i] (1-indexed) consecutive times. Consider we have an array of integers rollMax and an integer n, we have to return the number of distinct sequences that can be obtained with exact n rolls. The two sequences are considered different if at least one element differs from each other. So if n is 2, then rollMax = [1, 1, 2, 2, 2, 3], then the output will ...

Suppose we have the availability time slots lists slots1 and slots2 of two people and a meeting duration d, we have to find the earliest time slot that works for both of them and is of duration d. If there is no common time slot that satisfies the requirements, then show an empty array. Here the format of a time slot is an array of two elements [start, end] representing an inclusive time range from start to end. we can assume that no two availability slots of the same person intersect with each other. That is, for any two time ...

RLE Iterator in C++

Suppose we have to create an iterator that iterates through a run-length encoded sequence. Here the iterator is initialized by calling RLEIterator(int[] A), where A is a run-length encoding of a sequence. So we can say that for all even i, A[i] tells us the number of times that the non-negative integer value A[i+1] is repeated in the sequence. Here iterator supports one function −next(int n): This function exhausts the next n elements (n >= 1) and returns the last element exhausted in this way. So if there is no element left to exhaust, next returns -1 instead.Suppose we start ...

Suppose we have some coins. The i-th coin has a probability prob[i] of facing heads when tossed. We have to show the probability that the number of coins facing heads equals target if you toss every coin exactly once. So if the prob array is like [0.5, 0.5, 0.5, 0.5, 0.5] and target is 0, then the output will be 0.03125.To solve this, we will follow these steps −n := size of prob arraycreate one 2d array of size n x (target + 5)set dp[0, 0] = 1 – prob[0] and dp[0, 1] := prob[0]for i in range 1 to ...

Suppose we want to design a stack that supports the following operations.CustomStack(int maxSize) This initializes the object with maxSize which is the maximum number of elements in the stack or do nothing if the stack reached the maxSize.void push(int x) This inserts x to the top of the stack if the stack hasn't reached the maxSize.int pop() This deletes and returns the top of stack or -1 if the stack is empty.void inc(int k, int val) This increments the bottom k elements of the stack by val. If there are less than k elements in the stack, just increment all ...

Suppose we have an array A of integers, for each integer A[i] we have to choose either x = -K or x = K, and add x to A[i] (only once). So after this process, we have some array B. We have to find the smallest possible difference between the maximum value of B and the minimum value of B. So if the input is A = [0, 10], K = 2, then the output will be 6, as B = [2, 8].To solve this, we will follow these steps −set ret := 0, n := size of array Asort ...
