Suppose we have a string s. We have to check whether characters in s are in alphabetical order or not.So, if the input is like s = "mnnooop", then the output will be True.To solve this, we will follow these steps −char_arr := a new list from the characters present in ssort the list char_arrreturn char_arr is same as list of all characters in s then true otherwise falseLet us see the following implementation to get better understanding −Example CodeLive Demodef solve(s):    char_arr = list(s)    char_arr.sort()            return char_arr == list(s)   s ...

Suppose we have a string s. This string can contain lowercase characters, other special characters and numbers. We have to check whether only the letters present in the string are palindromic or not. Here one constraint is that there we are not allowed to use extra space to solve this problem.So, if the input is like s = "ra$5ce58car", then the output will be True, as the letters are forming "racecar" which is palindrome.To solve this, we will follow these steps −Define a function first_letter_index() . This will take str, left, rightindex := -1for i in range left to right ... Read More

Suppose we have a number num, we have to check whether the binary representation of num has the same number of consecutive blocks of 0s and 1s. We have to keep in mind that 0 and a number with all 1s are not considered to have number of blocks of 0s and 1s.So, if the input is like num = 455, then the output will be True, as the binary representation of this number is 111000111.To solve this, we will follow these steps −bin_form := binary form of numone_count := a new setcount := 1for i in range 0 to ...

Suppose we have an array nums of unique elements. We have to check whether these conditions satisfy or not:Elements will be in range 1 to n.The array must not be sorted in ascending order.So, if the input is like nums = [2, 6, 1, 5, 3, 4], then the output will be True.To solve this, we will follow these steps −n := size of numstotal := nums[0]is_sorted := Truefor i in range 1 to n - 1, doif nums[i] is same as nums[i - 1], thenreturn Falseif nums[i] < nums[i - 1], thenis_sorted := Falsetotal := total + nums[i]if is_sorted ...

Suppose we have an array called nums we have to check whether the array contains an element whose value is same as sum of all other elements.So, if the input is like nums = [3, 2, 10, 4, 1], then the output will be True, 10 = (3+2+4+1).To solve this, we will follow these steps −freq := an empty maptotal := 0for i in range 0 to size of nums - 1, dofreq[nums[i]] := freq[nums[i]] + 1total := total + nums[i]if total is even, thenif freq[quotient of (total / 2)] is non-zero, thenreturn Truereturn FalseLet us see the following implementation ...

Suppose we have an array called nums we have to check whether the array contains an element whose value is same as product of all other elements.So, if the input is like nums = [3, 2, 24, 4, 1], then the output will be True, 24 = (3*2*4*1).To solve this, we will follow these steps −mul := 1for i in range 0 to size of nums - 1, domul := mul * nums[i]for i in range 0 to size of nums - 1, doif nums[i] is same as (mul / nums[i]), thenreturn Truereturn FalseLet us see the following implementation to ...

Suppose we have an array called nums with unique values from range [0, n – 1]. This array is unsorted. We also have another array of pairs where each pair contains indices where the elements of the array can be swapped. We can swap multiple number of times. We have to check whether we can arrange the array in sorted order using these swaps or not.So, if the input is like nums = [6, 1, 7, 3, 0, 5, 4, 2] pairs = [(0, 4), (6, 0), (2, 7)], then the output will be True, as we can swap index ...

Suppose we have a 2D matrix. We have to check whether the sum of i-th row is same as the sum of i-th column or not.So, if the input is like23451064214671567then the output will be True, as the sum of first row and column is (2 + 3 + 4 + 5) = 14 and (2 + 10 + 1 + 1) = 14.To solve this, we will follow these steps −row := row count of matcol := column count of mattotal_row := 0, total_col := 0for i in range 0 to row - 1, dototal_row := 0, total_col := ...

Suppose we have two numbers p and q. We have to check whether the sum of all divisors of these tow numbers are same or not.So, if the input is like p = 559, q = 703, then the output will be True the divisors of 559 is 1, 13, 43 and 703 is 1, 19, 37. The sum of the divisors are 57.To solve this, we will follow these steps −Define a function divSum() . This will take ntotal := 1i := 2while i * i

Suppose we have a string s, we have to check whether the string palindromes as its prefix and suffix substrings or not.So, if the input is like s = "levelishighforracecar", then the output will be True as there are palindrome prefix and suffix: "level" and "racecar" respectively.To solve this, we will follow these steps −l := size of sfor i in range 2 to l + 2, doif substring of s up to index i is palindrome, thencome out from loopif i is same as(l + 1) , thenreturn Falsefor i in range 2 to l + 2, doif substring ...
