Suppose we want a Range Module. This is a module that tracks ranges of numbers. Our task is to design and implement the following interfaces in an efficient manner.addRange(left, right). This will the half-open interval [left, right), tracking every real number in that interval. Now, adding an interval that partially overlaps with currently tracked numbers should add any numbers in the interval that are not already tracked.queryRange(left, right) . This will return true when every real number in the interval [left, right) is currently being tracked.removeRange(left, right), this will stop tracking every real number currently being tracked in the interval ...

Suppose we have one N x N grid, this is filled with cherries. Each cell has one of the possible integers as follows −0 − Indicates cell is empty, so we can pass through1 − Indicates cell contains a cherry, that we can pick up and pass through-1 − Indicates the cell is containing a thorn that blocks the wayWe have to collect maximum number of cherries using these few rules −Start from position (0, 0) and end at (N-1, N-1) by moving right or down through valid path cellsAfter reaching the cell (N-1, N-1), returning to (0, 0) by ...

Suppose we have a box that is protected by a password. The password is a sequence of n digits where each digit can be one of the first k digits 0, 1, ..., k-1. So, when we are putting a password, the last n digits entered will automatically be matched against the correct password.So for example, assuming the correct password is "563", if we put "285639", the box will open because the correct password matches the suffix of the entered password. We have to find any password of minimum length that is guaranteed to open the box at some point ...

Suppose we have one N x N grid, each square grid[i][j] represents the elevation at that point (i, j). Now consider it has started raining. At time t, the depth of the water everywhere is t. We can swim from a square to another 4-directionally adjacent square when elevation of both squares individually is at most t. We can swim infinite distance in zero time.We should start from position (0, 0). We have to find the least time until we can reach the bottom right square (N-1, N-1)So if the input is like0123424232221512131515161117181920109876The correct way is colored. So the answer ...

Suppose we have one N x N board contains only 0s and 1s. Now in each move, we can swap any 2 rows, or any 2 columns. We have to find the minimum number of moves to transform the board into a "chessboard". If the solution does not exist, then return -1.So if the input is like −Then the output will be 2, as first two columns in the first move, then board will be like −Then swap second and 3rd rows −This is the chessboardTo solve this, we will follow these steps −n := size of bfor initialize i ...

Suppose we have one sorted list, there is 1 and some prime numbers, now for every p < q in the list, we will consider fraction p/q, then we have to find which is the kth smallest fraction. We have to return an array as answer, so ans[0] will be p and ans[1] will be q.So if the input is like [1, 3, 5, 7], and k = 2, then the answer will be 1/5, as the fractions are 1/3, 1/5, 1/7, 3/5, 3/7, 5/7, the second smallest is 1/5.To solve this, we will follow these steps −Define Data, this ...

In this problem, we are given the three variables that denote total monthly expenditure (E), selling price (S) of the product, overhead maintenance (M) on each product. Our task is to create a program to find the Break Even Point in C++.Break-Even Point is the total number of products that are required to be sold so that there should not be any loss or profit for the seller.Problem Description − We need to find the total no. of products to be sold to make sure there is no loss.Let’s take an example to understand the problem, InputE = 2400, S ...

Suppose we have an array A, we may rotate it by a K so that the array becomes A[K], A[K+1], A{K+2], ... A[A.length - 1], A[0], A[1], ..., A[K-1]. Then, any entries that are less than or equal to their index are worth 1 point.So for example, let we have an array [2, 4, 1, 3, 0], and we rotate by K = 2, it becomes [1, 3, 0, 2, 4]. This is worth 3 points because 1 > 0 [gain no point], 3 > 1 [gain no point], 0

In this problem, we are given a 2D array that denotes coordinates of three vertices of the triangle. Our task is to create a program to find the Centroid of the Triangle in C++.Centroid of a triangle is the point at which the three medians of the triangles intersect.Median of a triangle is the line that connects the vertex of the triangle with the center point of the line opposite to it.Let’s take an example to understand the problem, Input(-3, 1), (1.5, 0), (-3, -4)Output(-3.5, -1)ExplanationCentroid (x, y) = ((-3+2.5-3)/3, (1 + 0 - 4)/3) = (-3.5, -1)Solution ApproachFor solving ...
