Suppose we have a keyboard layout like below −ABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZWhere each English uppercase letter is located at some coordinate, as an example, the letter A is placed at (0, 0), the letter B is placed at (0, 1), the letter P is placed at (2, 3) and the letter Z is placed at (4, 1). Now if we have a word, we have to find the minimum total distance to type such string using only two fingers. The distance between two places (x1, y1) and (x2, y2) is |x1 - x2| + |y1 - y2|. And we can start from any ...

Suppose there is a one-dimensional garden on the x-axis. The starting position of the garden is 0, and ending position is n. There are n + 1 taps located at points [0, 1, ..., n] in the garden. If we have an integer n and an integer array ranges of length n + 1 where ranges[i] is the i-th tap can water the area [i - ranges[i], i + ranges[i]] when that area is open.We have to find the minimum number of taps that should be open to water the whole garden, if there is no possible solution, then return ...

Suppose we have strings S and T. We have to count number of distinct sequences of S which is equal to T.We know that a subsequence of a string is a new string which is formed from the original string by removing some (can be none) of the characters without disturbing the relative positions of the remaining characters. (Like, "ACE" is a subsequence of "ABCDE" while "AEC" is not).If the input strings are “baalllloonnn” and “balloon”, then there will be 36 different ways to select.To solve this, we will follow these steps −n := size of s, m := size ...

Suppose we want to schedule a list of tasks in d days. The tasks are dependent so, to work on the i-th task, we have to finish all the tasks j where 0 0, then −return 1^6if dp[idx, k] is not equal to -1, then −return dp[idx, k]maxVal := 0ret := inffor initialize i := idx, when i < size of v, update (increase i by 1), do −maxVal := maximum of v[i] and maxValret := minimum of ret and maxVal + solve(v, i + 1, k - 1, dp)dp[idx, k] := retreturn retFrom the main method do the ...

Suppose we have an array of integers called arr and an integer d. In one step we can jump from index i to −i + x where: i + x < n and x in range 1 to d.i - x where: i - x >= 0 and x in range 1 to d.Here n is the size of array. In addition, we can only jump from index i to index j when arr[i] > arr[j] and arr[i] > arr[k] for all indices k between i and j. We can choose any index of the array and start the jumping. ...

Suppose we have a sorted array arr and a target value, we have to find the index when the target is found. If that is not present, then return the index where it would be if it were inserted in order.So, if the input is like [1, 3, 4, 6, 6], and target = 5, then the output will be 3, as we can insert 5 at index 3, so the array will be [1, 3, 4, 5, 6, 6]To solve this, we will follow these steps−n := size of Aif n < 1, then −return 0low := 0, high ...

Suppose we have an array of integers called arr. We are initially at index 0. In one step we can jump from index i to i + x where: i + x < n. i - x where: i - x >= 0. j where: arr[i] and arr[j] are same and i and j are not same. Here n is the size of array. We have to find the minimum number of steps to reach the last index of the array.So, if the input is like, then the output will be 3, We need three jumps from index 0 to ...

Suppose we have a list of n orders, in each order there are pickup and delivery services. We have to count all valid pickup/delivery possible sequences such that delivery[i] is always after the pickup[i]. As the answer may very large, we will return it modulo 10^9 + 7.So, if the input is like 2, then the output will be 6, as All possible orders are (P1, P2, D1, D2), (P1, P2, D2, D1), (P1, D1, P2, D2), (P2, P1, D1, D2), (P2, P1, D2, D1) and (P2, D2, P1, D1). And the order (P1, D2, P2, D1) is not valid ...

Suppose we have a string s. s can hold any English letters and white-spaces. We have to find the length of last word in the string. If there is no last word, then return 0.So, if the input is like "I love Programming", then the output will be 11To solve this, we will follow these steps −n := 0for each word temp in a string −n := size of tempreturn nExampleLet us see the following implementation to get a better understanding −#include using namespace std; class Solution { public:    int lengthOfLastWord(string s){       stringstream str(s);   ...

Suppose we have one array of digits, we have to find the largest multiple of three that can be formed by concatenating some of the given digits in any order as we want. The answer may be very large so make it as string. If there is no answer return an empty string.So, if the input is like [7, 2, 8], then the output will be 87To solve this, we will follow these steps −Define one 2D array d, there will be three rowssort the array digitssum := 0for initialize i := 0, when i < size of digits, update ...
