Program to check whether first player can win a game where players can form string char by char in C++
Suppose we have a list of words. Now consider a ghost game where two players can participate into it. Here players alternate appending letters to a string. And the string that is being made must be a valid prefix of a word in the list, and the player who spells out any word in the list loses. We have to check whether the first player can win or not if both players are playing optimally.So, if the input is like words = ["manage", "manager", "min"], then the output will be True, as they can play like −m [Player 1]ma [Player ...
Read MoreProgram to find minimum number of pins required to hang all banners in C++
Suppose we have a list of intervals of the form [start, end] this is representing the starts and end points of banners we want to hang. At least one pin is required to hang a banner, and one pin can hang more than once banners. We have to find the smallest number of pins required to hang all the banners.So, if the input is like intervals = [[2, 5], [5, 6], [8, 10], [10, 13]], then the output will be 2, as we can put two pins at position 5 and 10 to hang all of the banners.To solve this, ...
Read MoreProgram to find minimum sum of difficulties to complete jobs over k days in C++
Suppose we have a list of numbers called jobs and another value k. Now we want to finish all jobs in k different days. The jobs must be performed in the given order and in each day we have to complete one task. The difficulty of job i is stored at jobs[i] and the difficulty of completing a list of jobs on a day will be the maximum difficulty job performed on that day. So we have to find the minimum sum of the difficulties to perform the jobs over k different days.So, if the input is like jobs = ...
Read MoreProgram to find sum of k non-overlapping sublists whose sum is maximum in C++
Suppose we have a list of numbers called nums, and another value k, we have to find the k non-overlapping, non-empty sublists such that the sum of their sums is maximum. We can consider k is less than or equal to the size of nums.So, if the input is like nums = [11, -1, 2, 1, 6, -24, 11, -9, 6] k = 3, then the output will be 36, as we can select the sublists [11, -1, 2, 1, 6], [11], and [6] to get sums of [19, 11, 6] = 36.To solve this, we will follow these steps ...
Read MoreProgram to find maximum sum of two sets where sums are equal in C++
Suppose we have a list of numbers called nums, now find two sets as their sums are same and maximum, then find sum value.So, if the input is like nums = [2, 5, 4, 6], then the output will be 6, as the sets are [2, 4] and [6].To solve this, we will follow these steps −sum := 0for each number i in nums, dosum := sum + in := size of numsDefine one 2D array dp of size (n + 1) x (2 * sum + 5) and fill with -1dp[0, sum] := 0for initialize i := 1, when ...
Read MoreProgram to find number of operations needed to decrease n to 0 in C++
Suppose we have a number n. Now consider an operation where we can either 1. Decrement n by one 2. If n is even number, then decrement it by n / 2 3. If n is divisible by 3, then decrement by 2 * (n / 3) Finally find the minimum number of operations required to decrement n to zero.So, if the input is like n = 16, then the output will be 5, as n = 16 even then decreases it by n/2 4 times, it will be 1. Then reduce it by 1 to get 0. So total ...
Read MoreProgram to count number of ways we can place nonoverlapping edges to connect all nodes in C++
Suppose we have a number n that is representing the number of nodes that are placed circularly. We have to find the number of ways we can place n / 2 edges such that every node is connected by an edge, and that edges does not intersect with each other. If the answer is very large then return result mod 10^9 + 7.So, if the input is like n = 4, then the output will be 2, as we can group them like below −To solve this, we will follow these steps −Define an array dp of size (n/2 + ...
Read MoreProgram to check we can replace characters to make a string to another string or not in C++
Suppose we have two lowercase strings s and t. Now consider an operation where we replace all occurrences of a character in s with another character. If we can perform this operation any number of times, we have to check whether s can be converted to t or not.So, if the input is like s = "eye" t = "pip", then the output will be True, as we can replace "e"s with "p"s then "y" by "i".To solve this, we will follow these steps −Define one map m1 and another map m2n := size of sfor initialize i := 0, ...
Read MoreProgram to find a triplet nums[i] < nums[k] < nums[j] from a list nums in C++
Suppose we have a list of numbers called nums, we have to check whether there are triplets (i, j, k) such that i < j < k and nums[i] < nums[k] < nums[j].So, if the input is like nums = [2, 12, 1, 4, 4], then the output will be True, as [2, 12, 4] matches the criteria because 2 < 4 < 12.To solve this, we will follow these steps −n := size of numsDefine an array left of size nleft[0] := nums[0]for initialize i := 1, when i < n, update (increase i by 1), do −left[i] := ...
Read MoreProgram to find minimum largest sum of k sublists in C++
Suppose we have a list of numbers called nums and another value k. We can split the list into k non-empty sublists. We have to find the minimum largest sum of the k sublists.So, if the input is like nums = [2, 4, 3, 5, 12] k = 2, then the output will be 14, as we can split the list like: [2, 4, 3, 5] and [12].To solve this, we will follow these steps −Define a function ok(), this will take array v, k, x,cnt := 0, sum := 0for each element i in v −if sum + i > x, then −sum := i(increase cnt by 1)Otherwisesum := sum + ireturn true when cnt
