Suppose we have two numeric strings s and t, we want to transform from string s to t using the following operation any number of times: 1. Select a non-empty substring in s and sort it inplace so the characters are in ascending order. We have to check whether it is possible to transform string s into string t or not.So, if the input is like s = "95643" t = "45963", then the output will be True because we can transform s into t using like "95643" -> "95463" -> "45963".To solve this, we will follow these steps −places ...

Suppose, we are given a graph that contains n vertices numbered 0 to n - 1. The graph is undirected and each edge has a weight. The graph can have three types of weights and each weight signifies a particular task. There are two people that can traverse the graph, namely Jack and Casey. Jack can traverse the graph if an edge has weight 1, Casey can traverse the graph if it has weight 2, and both can traverse the graph if it has edge weight 3. We have to remove any edges necessary to make the graph traversable for ... Read More

Suppose we have one 2D array of characters called grid of size m x n. We have to check whether we can detect a cycle inside it or not. Here a cycle is a path of length 4 or more in the grid that starts and ends at the same position. We can move in four directions (up, down, left, or right), if it has the same value of the current cell, and we cannot revisit some cell.So, if the input is likemmmpmkmmmmsmftmmthen the output will be True, because the green cells are forming cycle.To solve this, we will follow ...

Suppose we have a number n. So consider there are n oranges in the kitchen and we eat some of these oranges every day maintaining these rules: 1. Eat single orange. 2. If n is even, then eat n/2 oranges. 3. If n is divisible by 3 can eat 2*(n/3) oranges. We can select only one option each day. We have to find the minimum number of days to eat n oranges.So, if the input is like n = 10, then the output will be 4 becauseOn day 1 eat 1 orange, 10 - 1 = 9.On day 2 eat ... Read More

Suppose we have a value n and an array called cuts. Consider there is a wooden stick of length n units. The stick is labelled from 0 to n. Here cuts[i] represents a position where we can cut. We should perform the cuts in order, but we can change the order of the cuts as we want. Here the cost of one cut is the size of the stick to be cut, and the total cost is the sum of costs of all cuts. We have to find the minimum total cost of the cuts.So, if the input is like ...

Suppose we have a numeric string s. As we know an awesome substring is a non-empty substring of s such that we can make any number of swaps in order to make it palindrome. We have to find the length of the maximum length awesome substring of s.So, if the input is like s = "4353526", then the output will be 5 because "35352" is the longest awesome substring. we can make "35253" palindrome.To solve this, we will follow these steps −n := 0pos_map := a map containing a key 0 and corresponding value is size of smax_len := 1for ...

Suppose we have two arrays nums1 and nums2. A valid path is defined as follows −Select nums1 or nums2 to traverse (from index-0).Traverse the array from left to right.Now, if we are moving through any value that is present in nums1 and nums2 we can change the path to the other array. Here the score is the sum of unique values in a valid path. We have to find the maximum score we can get of all possible valid paths. If the answer is too large then return result modulo 10^9+7.So, if the input is like nums1 = [3, 5, ... Read More

Suppose we have a string s and another value k. We can delete at most k characters from s such that the length of run-length encoded version of s is minimum. As we know the run-length encoding is a string compression method that replaces consecutive identical characters (2 or more times) with the concatenation of the character and the number marking the count of the characters. For example, if we have a string "xxyzzz" then we replace "xx" by "x2" and replace "zzz" by "z3". So compressed string is now "x2yz3". So in this problem we have to find the ... Read More

Suppose we have two arrays nums and multipliers of size n and m respectively (n >= m). The arrays are 1-indexed. Now our initial score is 0. We want to perform exactly m operations. On the ith operation (1-indexed), we will −Select one value from x from either the start or the end of the nums.Add multipliers[i] * x to the score.Remove x from the array nums.We have to find the maximum score after performing m operations.So, if the input is like nums = [5, 10, 15], multipliers = [5, 3, 2], then the output will be 115 because we ...

Suppose we have an array called target with positive values. Now consider an array initial of same size with all zeros. We have to find the minimum number of operations required to generate a target array from the initial if we do this operation: (Select any subarray from initial and increment each value by one.)So, if the input is like target = [2, 3, 4, 3, 2], then the output will be 4 because initially array was [0, 0, 0, 0, 0] first pass select subarray from index 0 to 4 and increase it by 1, so array will be ...
