Suppose we have a car, that starts at position 0 and speed +1 on an infinite number line. The car runs automatically according to a sequence of instructions A: for accelerate and R − for reverse. When we get an instruction "A", our car does the following −position := position + speed, then speed = speed * 2.When we get an instruction "R", our car does the following −if speed is positive then speed = -1, otherwise speed = 1.For example, after executing the instructions "AAR", our car goes to positions 0->1->3->3, and speed goes to 1->2->4->-1.Now suppose we have ...

Suppose we have a string s that is containing lowercase letters and an integer k. We have to maintain some properties. These are −First, we have to change some characters (if needed) of s to other lowercase English letters.Then divide the string s into k substrings such that each substring is a palindrome.We have to find the minimal number of characters that we need to change to divide the string.So if the string is like “ababbc” and k = 2, then the answer will be 1, as we have to change one character to split this into two palindrome strings. ...

Suppose we have a positive integer; we have to find its corresponding column title as appear in an Excel sheet. So [1 : A], [2 : B], [26 : Z], [27 : AA], [28 : AB] etc.So, if the input is like 28, then the output will be AB.To solve this, we will follow these steps −while n is non-zero, do −n := n - 1res := res + n mod 26 + ASCII of 'A'n := n / 26reverse the array resreturn resExample Let us see the following implementation to get a better understanding −#include using namespace std; class ...

In this problem, we are given a 2D array that denotes coordinates of three vertices of the triangle. Our task is to create a program to find the Centroid of the Triangle in C++.Centroid of a triangle is the point at which the three medians of the triangles intersect.Median of a triangle is the line that connects the vertex of the triangle with the center point of the line opposite to it.Let’s take an example to understand the problem, Input(-3, 1), (1.5, 0), (-3, -4)Output(-3.5, -1)ExplanationCentroid (x, y) = ((-3+2.5-3)/3, (1 + 0 - 4)/3) = (-3.5, -1)Solution ApproachFor solving ...

Updated on 11-Mar-2026 4K+ Views

Suppose we have two strings s and t; we have to check whether they are isomorphic or not. Two strings are said to be isomorphic if the characters in s can be replaced to get t.All occurrences of a character must be replaced with another character while preserving the order of characters. No two characters may map to the same character but a character may map to itself.So, if the input is like s = "egg", t = "add”, then the output will be true, as e can map to a, and g can map to d.To solve this, we ...

Suppose we have a m x n binary matrix mat. In one step, we can choose one cell and flip its bit and all the four neighbors of it if they are present. We have to find the minimum number of steps required to convert mat to a zero matrix. If there is no solution, then return -1.So if the given input is like [[0, 0], [0, 1]], alteration will be like −So we need 3 steps, the output will be 3.To solve this, we will follow these steps −n := number of rows, m := number of columns, x ...
