Suppose we have a root node of a maximum tree: The maximum tree is a tree where every node has a value greater than any other value in its subtree. Suppose we have a method called construct(). This can construct a root from a list A. The construct() method is like −If list A is empty, return null.Otherwise, let A[i] be the largest element of the list A. Then create a root node with value A[i].The left child of root will be construct([A[0], A[1], ..., A[i-1]])The right child of root will be construct([A[i+1], A[i+2], ..., A[n - 1]]) [n is ...

Suppose we are given that the string "abc" is valid. So from any valid string V, we can divide V into two pieces X and Y such that X + Y is same as V. (X or Y may be empty.). Then, X + "abc" + Y is also valid. So for example S = "abc", then examples of valid strings are: "abc", "aabcbc", "abcabc", "abcabcababcc". And some examples of invalid strings are: "abccba", "ab", "cababc", "bac". We have to check true if and only if the given string S is valid.So if the input is like “abcabcababcc”, then that ...

Suppose we have an integer array arr and an integer difference, we have to find the length of the longest subsequence in arr which is an arithmetic sequence such that the difference between adjacent elements in the subsequence is same as the difference. So if the input is like [1, 5, 7, 8, 5, 3, 4, 2, 1] and difference is -2, then the output will be − 4, as the longest arithmetic sequence is [7, 5, 3, 1]To solve this, we will follow these steps −Define a map mn := size of array arr, set ans := 0for i ...

Suppose we have the root of a binary tree, we have to find the maximum value V for which there exists different nodes A and B where V = |value of A – value of B| and A is an ancestor of B. So if the tree is like −Then the output will be 7. The ancestor node differences are like [(8 - 3), (7 - 3), (8 - 1), (10-13)], among them the (8 - 1) = 7 is the maximum.To solve this, we will follow these steps −initially define ans 0define one method called solve(), this will take ...

Suppose we have two strings s1 and s2 of equal length consisting of letters only "x" and "y". Our task is to make these two strings equal to each other. We can swap any two characters that belong to different strings, which means − swap s1[i] and s2[j]. We have to find the minimum number of swaps required to make s1 and s2 equal, or return -1 if it is impossible to do so. So if the strings are s1 = “xy” and s2 = “yx”, then the output will be 2. If we swap s1[0] and s2[0], s1 = ...

Suppose we have an N by N square grid, there each cell is either empty (0) or blocked (1). A clear path from top-left to bottom-right has length k if and only if it is composed of cells C_1, C_2, ..., C_k such that −Adjacent cells C_i and C_{i+1} are connected 8-directionally (So they are different and share an edge or corner)C_1 is at location (0, 0)C_k is at location (N-1, N-1)If C_i is located at (r, c), then grid[r, c] is empty or contains 0We have to find the length of the shortest such clear path from top-left to ...

Suppose we have an array of integers nums and an integer k. A subarray is known as nice subarray if there are k odd numbers on it. We have to find the number of nice sub-arrays. So if the array is [1, 1, 2, 1, 1], and k = 3, then the output will be 2, as the subarrays are [1, 1, 2, 1], and [1, 2, 1, 1]To solve this, we will follow these steps −ans := 0, n := size of nums arrayleft := 0 and right := 0, and count := 0define an array odd, fill this ...

Suppose we have an array of non-negative integers arr, we are initially positioned at start index of the array. When we are present at index i, we can jump to i + arr[i] or i - arr[i], check if we can reach to any index with value 0. We have to keep in mind that we cannot jump outside of the array at any time. So if the input is like: arr = [4, 2, 3, 0, 3, 1, 2] and start from 5, then output will be true, as move 5 → 4 → 1 → 3, or 5 ...

Suppose we have a binary tree. The rules of that tree is as follows −root.val == 0If treeNode.val is x and treeNode.left is not null, then treeNode.left.val = 2 * x + 1If treeNode.val is x and treeNode.right is not null, then treeNode.right.val = 2 * x + 2Now as the binary tree is contaminated. This indicates all val of the tree node have been changed to -1. We have to first recover the binary tree and then implement the FindElements class as follows −FindElements(TreeNode* root) Initializes the object with a contamined binary tree, we have to recover it first.bool ...

Suppose we have the array arr of positive integers and the array queries where queries[i] = [Li, Ri], for each query the i compute the XOR of elements from Li to Ri (that is, arr[Li] XOR arr[Li+1] xor ... xor arr[Ri] ). We have to find the array containing the result for the given queries. So if the input is like − [1, 3, 4, 8], and queries are like [[0, 1], [1, 2], [0, 3], [3, 3]], then the result will be [2, 7, 14, 8]. This is because the binary representation of the elements in the array are ...
