Suppose a dieter consumes calories[i], this indicates the calories on the i-th day. If we have an integer k, for every consecutive sequence of k days that is (calories[i], calories[i+1], ..., calories[i+k-1] for all 0 upper, so increase one point, lower = length of C, then come out from the looptemp := temp + C[right]return pointsExampleLet us see the following implementation to get better understanding − Live Democlass Solution(object): def dietPlanPerformance(self, c, k, l, u): temp = 0 for i in range(k): temp += c[i] right ...

Suppose we have one binary tree. We have to find the maximum depth of that tree. The maximum depth of a tree is the maximum number of nodes that are traversed to reach the leaf from the root using the longest path. Suppose the tree is like below. The depth will be 3 here.To solve this, we will follow these steps.Here we will use the recursive approach. The method is solve(root, depth = 0)if the root is empty, then return depthotherwise return max of solve(left, depth + 1) and solve(left, depth + 1)Let us see the following implementation to get ...

Suppose, there is a special keyboard with all keys in a single row. So if we have a string of length 26 indicating the layout of the keyboard (indexed from 0 to 25), initially our finger is at index 0. To type a character, we have to move your finger to the index of the next character. The time taken to move your finger from index i to index j is denoted as |i - j|. So if we want to type a string. we have to define a function to calculate how much time it takes to type it ... Read More
Suppose we have an array called, nums and that is sorted in non-decreasing order, and a number target. We have to find if the target is a majority element. In an array a majority element is an element that appears more than N/2 times in an array of length N. So if the array is like − [2, 4, 5, 5, 5, 5, 5, 6, 6] and target is 5, then output is true.To solve this, we will follow these steps −There will be two helping modules, lower() and upper(). These are as follows.The lower() takes two arguments array arr ... Read More
Suppose we have a list of numbers, we have to return the number whose occurrence is 1, if no such element is present, then return -1. So if the list is like [5, 2, 3, 6, 5, 2, 9, 6, 3], then the output will be 9.To solve this, we will follow these steps −We will check each element, and put the elements inside the map, so if the element is not in map, then put a new entry, otherwise increase the valuethen go through the map, when the value is 1, return the key.Example(Python)Let us see the following implementation ...

Suppose we have a string, we have to remove all vowels from that string. So if the string is like “iloveprogramming”, then after removing vowels, the result will be − "lvprgrmmng"To solve this, we will follow these steps −create one array vowel, that is holding [a, e, i, o, u]for v in a vowelreplace v using blank stringExampleLet us see the following implementation to get a better understanding − Live Democlass Solution(object): def removeVowels(self, s): s = s.replace("a", "") s = s.replace("e", "") s = s.replace("i", "") s ...

Suppose we have an expression. The expression has some parentheses; we have to check the parentheses are balanced or not. The order of the parentheses are (), {} and []. Suppose there are two strings. “()[(){()}]” this is valid, but “{[}]” is invalid.The task is simple; we will use the stack to do this. We should follow these steps to get the solution −Traverse through the expression until it has exhaustedif the current character is opening bracket like (, { or [, then push into stackif the current character is closing bracket like ), } or ], then pop from ...

Suppose we have one year Y and a month M, we have to return the number of days of that month for the given year. So if the Y = 1992 and M = 7, then the result will be 31, if the year is 2020, and M = 2, then the result is 29.To solve this, we will follow these steps −if m = 2, thenif y is a leap year, return 29, otherwise 28make an array with elements [1, 3, 5, 7, 8, 10, 12]if m is in the list, then return 31, otherwise, return 30.Example(Python)Let us see ...

Suppose we have an array A of integers and another integer K is given. We have to find the maximum S such that there exists i < j with A[i] + A[j] = S and S < K. If there is no i, j exists satisfying this equation, then return -1. So for example if A = [34, 23, 1, 24, 75, 33, 54, 8] and K = 60, then the output will be 58, as we can use 34 and 24 to sum 58, which is less than 60.To solve this, we will follow these steps −res = - ...

Suppose we have a text string and words (a list of strings), we have to find all index pairs [i, j] such that the substring text[i]...text[j] is in the list of words. So if the string is like “ababa” and words array is like [“aba”, “ab”], then the output will be [[0, 1], [0, 2], [2, 3], [2, 4]]. One thing we can notice, that the matches can overlap, the “aba” is matched in [0, 2] and [2, 4].To solve this, we will follow these steps −res := an empty listfor i in range 0 to a length of stringfor ...
