Cost of painting n * m grid in C++
In this tutorial, we will be discussing a program to find the cost of painting n*m grid.For this we will be provided with two integers n and m. Our task is to calculate the minimum cost of painting a n*m grid is the cost of painting a cell is equal to the number of painted cells adjacent to it.Example#include using namespace std; //calculating the minimum cost int calc_cost(int n, int m){ int cost = (n - 1) * m + (m - 1) * n; return cost; } int main(){ int n = 4, m = 5; cout
Read MoreDaily Temperatures in Python
Suppose we have a list of daily temperatures T, we have to return a list such that, for each day in the input, shows how many days we would have to wait until a warmer temperature. If there is no future day for which this is possible, store 0 instead. For example, if T = [73, 74, 75, 71, 69, 72, 76, 73], output will be [1, 1, 4, 2, 1, 1, 0, 0].To solve this, we will follow these steps −ans := an array of size same as T, and fill this with 0define one stack, and insert 0 ...
Read MoreCost to Balance the parentheses in C++
In this tutorial, we will be discussing a program to find the cost to balance the parentheses.For this we will be provided with a sequence of brackets. Our task is to balance those parentheses in the equation by shifting their position by one and print -1 if balancing them isn’t possible.Example#include using namespace std; int costToBalance(string s) { if (s.length() == 0) cout
Read MorePartition Labels in C++
Suppose we have a string S of lowercase letters is given. We will partition this string into as many parts as possible so that each letter appears in at most one part, finally return a list of integers representing the size of these parts. So if the string is like “ababcbacadefegdehijhklij”, output is [9, 7, 8], because the partitions are “ababcbaca”, “defegde”, “hijhklij”. So this is a partition so that each letter occurs in at most one part. A partition like "ababcbacadefegde", "hijhklij" is not correct, because it splits S into less parts.To solve this, we will follow these steps ...
Read MoreCost to make a string Panagram in C++
In this tutorial, we will be discussing a program to find the cost of making a string panagram.For this we will be provided with an array of integers. Our task is to convert the given string into a panagram and calculate the cost of doing that with the help of the array provided with the costs of adding characters.Example#include using namespace std; //calculating the total cost of //making panagram int calc_cost(int arr[], string str) { int cost = 0; bool occurred[26] = { false }; for (int i = 0; i < str.size(); i++) ...
Read MoreCount 'd' digit positive integers with 0 as a digit in C++
In this tutorial, we will be discussing a program to find the numbers having ‘d’ digits with 0 as a digit.For this we will be provided with a number ‘d’. Our task is to count and print the number of positive integers having ‘d’ digits and 0 as one of their digit.Example#include using namespace std; //counting the number of 'd' digit numbers int count_num(int d) { return 9*(pow(10,d-1) - pow(9,d-1)); } int main(){ int d = 1; cout
Read MoreCount 1's in a sorted binary array in C++
In this tutorial, we will be discussing a program to find the 1’s in a sorted binary array.For this we will be provided with an array containing only 1 and 0. Our task is to count the number of 1’s present in the array.Example#include using namespace std; //returning the count of 1 int countOnes(bool arr[], int low, int high){ if (high >= low){ int mid = low + (high - low)/2; if ( (mid == high || arr[mid+1] == 0) && (arr[mid] == 1)) return mid+1; ...
Read MoreCount all 0s which are blocked by 1s in binary matrix in C++
In this tutorial, we will be discussing a program to find the count of 0s which are blocked by 1s in a binary matrix.For this we will be provided with a binary matrix. Our task is to find and count all the 0s in the matrix that are blocked by 1s.Example#include using namespace std; #define Row 4 #define Col 5 int r[4] = { 0, 0, 1, -1 }; int c[4] = { 1, -1, 0, 0 }; bool isSafe(int x, int y, int M[][Col]) { if (x >= 0 && x = 0 && y
Read MoreCount all distinct pairs with difference equal to k in C++
In this tutorial, we will be discussing a program to find the distinct pairs with difference equal to k.For this we will be provided with an integer array and the value k. Our task is to count all the distinct pairs that have the difference as k.Example#include using namespace std; int count_diffK(int arr[], int n, int k) { int count = 0; //picking elements one by one for (int i = 0; i < n; i++) { for (int j = i+1; j < n; j++) if (arr[i] - arr[j] ...
Read MoreMinimum Cost to Connect Sticks in C++
Suppose we have some sticks with positive integer lengths. We can connect any two sticks of lengths X and Y into one stick by paying a cost of X + Y. This will be performed until there is one stick remaining. We have to find the minimum cost of connecting all the given sticks into one stick in this way. So if the stack is [2, 4, 3], then the output will be 14.To solve this, we will follow these steps −Define a max heap priority queue pqinsert all elements of s into pqans := 0while pq has more than ...
