Suppose we have a string which consists of lowercase or uppercase letters, we have to find the length of the longest palindromes that can be built with those letters. Now the string is case sensitive, so "Aa" is not considered a palindrome here.So, if the input is like "abccccdd", then the output will be 7, as one longest palindrome that can be built is "dccaccd", whose length is 7.To solve this, we will follow these steps −Define one map mpfor each character i in s(increase mp[i] by 1)ma := 0, c := 0, ans := 0for each key-value pair i ...

Suppose we have a non-empty array of integers; we have to find the third maximum number in this array. If there is no 3rd max number, then return the maximum one. The challenge is, we have to solve this using linear time complexity.So, if the input is like [5, 3, 8, 9, 1, 4, 6, 2], then the output will be 6.To solve this, we will follow these steps −initialize a, b, c with NULLfor initialize i := 0, when i < size of nums, update (increase i by 1), do −if a is null or nums[i] >= value of ...

Suppose we have a string s. We have to count the number of segments in a string, where a segment is defined to be a contiguous sequence of characters (no whitespace).So, if the input is like "Hello, I love programming", then the output will be 4, as there are 4 segments.To solve this, we will follow these steps −n := 0for initialize i := 0, when i < size of s, update (increase i by 1), do −if s[i] is not equal to white space, then −(increase n by 1)while (i < size of s and s[i] is not equal ...

Suppose we have an array of size n, we have to find the minimum number of moves required to make all array elements the same, where a move means incrementing n - 1 elements by 1.So, if the input is like [3, 2, 3, 4], then the output will be 4.To solve this, we will follow these steps −n := size of numsif n is same as 0, then −return 0sort the array numsans := 0for initialize i := 0, when i < n, update (increase i by 1), do −ans := ans + nums[i] - nums[0]return ansExample Let us see ...

Suppose we have a specific rectangular web page area, our job is to design a rectangular web page, whose length L and width W that satisfies the following requirements −The area of the web page must equal to the given target area.The width W should not be larger than the length L, and L >= W.The difference between L and W should be as small as possible.So, if the input is like 4, then the output will be [2, 2], as the target area is 4, and all the possible ways to construct it are [1, 4], [2, 2], [4, ...

Suppose we have to check whether a given number is perfect number or not. A number is said to be a Perfect Number when that is equal to the sum of all its positive divisors except itself. The number n will be in range 1^8.So, if the input is like 28, then the output will be True, as its sum of divisors − 1 + 2 + 4 + 7+ 14 = 28.To solve this, we will follow these steps −As the numbers are in range 10^8, there are only few perfect numbers, if the given input is in that ...

Given a list of words, we have to find those words that can be typed using letters of the alphabet on only one row's of standard keyboard layout.So, if the input is like ["hello", "world", "mom", "dad", "try", "type", "tom"], then the output will be ["dad", "try", "type"]To solve this, we will follow these steps −Define an array outputoneRow := trueDefine one map charToRowMap, this will take all pairs such that {letter, line}, the letter is the letter present on the keyboard, and line is the line number on the keyboard.for each word in words array −if the word is ...

Suppose we have two strings; we have to find the longest uncommon subsequence of these two strings. The longest uncommon subsequence is actually the longest subsequence of one string and this subsequence should not come in the other string. So, we have to find the length of the longest uncommon subsequence. If the longest uncommon subsequence doesn't exist, return -1.So, if the input is like "aabbac", "aabbcc", then the output will be 6To solve this, we will follow these steps −if a is same as b, then −return -1Otherwisereturn maximum of size of a and size of bExample Let us see ...

Suppose we have an array with even length, here different numbers in this array will represent different kinds of candies. Now each number means one candy of the corresponding kind. we have to distribute candies equally in number to brother and sister. We have to find the maximum number of kinds of candies the sister could receive.So, if the input is like [1, 1, 2, 3], then the output will be 2 as if we consider the sister has candies [2, 3] and the brother has candies [1, 1]. Now the sister has two different kinds of candies, the brother ...
