Find the longest subsequence of an array having LCM at most K in Python
Suppose we have an array A of n different numbers and another positive integer K, we have to find the longest sub-sequence in the array having Least Common Multiple (LCM) at most K. After than return the LCM and the length of the sub-sequence, following the indexes (starting from 0) of the elements of the obtained sub-sequence. Otherwise, return -1.
So, if the input is like A = [3, 4, 5, 6], K = 20, then the output will be LCM = 12, Length = 3, Indexes = [0,1,3]
To solve this, we will follow these steps −
n := size of A
my_dict := a map
for i in range 0 to n, do
my_dict[A[i]] := my_dict[A[i]] + 1
count := an array of size (k + 1) fill with 0
for each key in my_dict, do
if key <= k, then
i := 1
while key * i <= k, do
count[key * i] := count[key * i] + my_dict[key]
i := i + 1
otherwise,
come out from the loop
lcm := 0, size := 0
for i in range 1 to k + 1, do
if count[i] > size, then
size := count[i]
lcm := i
if lcm is same as 0, then
return -1
otherwise,
display lcm and size
for i in range 0 to n, do
if lcm mod A[i] is same as 0, then
display i
Example
Let us see the following implementation to get better understanding −
from collections import defaultdict
def get_seq(A,k):
n = len(A)
my_dict = defaultdict(lambda:0)
for i in range(0, n):
my_dict[A[i]] += 1
count = [0] * (k + 1)
for key in my_dict:
if key <= k:
i = 1
while key * i <= k:
count[key * i] += my_dict[key]
i += 1
else:
break
lcm = 0
size = 0
for i in range(1, k + 1):
if count[i] > size:
size = count[i]
lcm = i
if lcm == 0:
print(-1)
else:
print("LCM = {0}, Length = {1}".format(lcm, size))
print("Index values: ", end = "")
for i in range(0, n):
if lcm % A[i] == 0:
print(i, end = " ")
k = 20
A = [3, 4, 5, 6]
get_seq(A,k)Input
[3, 4, 5, 6] , 20
Output
LCM = 12, Length = 3 Index values: 0 1 3
