In this tutorial, we will be discussing a program to find the count of 0s which are blocked by 1s in a binary matrix.For this we will be provided with a binary matrix. Our task is to find and count all the 0s in the matrix that are blocked by 1s.Example Live Demo#include using namespace std; #define Row 4 #define Col 5 int r[4] = { 0, 0, 1, -1 }; int c[4] = { 1, -1, 0, 0 }; bool isSafe(int x, int y, int M[][Col]) {    if (x >= 0 && x = 0 &&       y

In this tutorial, we will be discussing a program to find the 1’s in a sorted binary array.For this we will be provided with an array containing only 1 and 0. Our task is to count the number of 1’s present in the array.Example Live Demo#include using namespace std; //returning the count of 1 int countOnes(bool arr[], int low, int high){    if (high >= low){       int mid = low + (high - low)/2;       if ( (mid == high || arr[mid+1] == 0) && (arr[mid] == 1))          return mid+1;   ...

In this tutorial, we will be discussing a program to find the numbers having ‘d’ digits with 0 as a digit.For this we will be provided with a number ‘d’. Our task is to count and print the number of positive integers having ‘d’ digits and 0 as one of their digit.Example Live Demo#include using namespace std; //counting the number of 'd' digit numbers int count_num(int d) {    return 9*(pow(10,d-1) - pow(9,d-1)); } int main(){    int d = 1;    cout

In this tutorial, we will be discussing a program to find the cost of making a string panagram.For this we will be provided with an array of integers. Our task is to convert the given string into a panagram and calculate the cost of doing that with the help of the array provided with the costs of adding characters.Example Live Demo#include using namespace std; //calculating the total cost of //making panagram int calc_cost(int arr[], string str) {    int cost = 0;    bool occurred[26] = { false };    for (int i = 0; i < str.size(); i++)   ...

In this tutorial, we will be discussing a program to find the cost to balance the parentheses.For this we will be provided with a sequence of brackets. Our task is to balance those parentheses in the equation by shifting their position by one and print -1 if balancing them isn’t possible.Example Live Demo#include using namespace std; int costToBalance(string s) {    if (s.length() == 0)       cout

In this tutorial, we will be discussing a program to find the cost of painting n*m grid.For this we will be provided with two integers n and m. Our task is to calculate the minimum cost of painting a n*m grid is the cost of painting a cell is equal to the number of painted cells adjacent to it.Example Live Demo#include using namespace std; //calculating the minimum cost int calc_cost(int n, int m){    int cost = (n - 1) * m + (m - 1) * n;    return cost; } int main(){    int n = 4, m = 5;    cout

In this tutorial, we will be discussing a program to correct the random pointer in a doubly linked list.For this we will be provided with a doubly linked list with one node having a random pointer. Our task is to rectify the element to whom the pointer should be pointing i.e the element next to it.Example Live Demo#include using namespace std; //node structure for doubly linked list struct node {    int data;    node* next;    node* prev; }; //new node creation node* newNode(int data){    node* temp = new node;    temp->data = data;    temp->next = temp->prev ...

Array is a data structure that store data in the contagious memory location.Declaring arraysDeclaring arrays is done by the following syntax : int 1D[] - for 1-D array int 2D[][] - for 2-D arrayIf you initialize an array with lesser number of elements, rest are initialized with 0.Memory address of elements of the array1-D array : address[i] = baseAddress + i*size 2-D array (row major) : address[i][j] = baseAddress + (i*n + j) * sizeNow, let’s see some practice problemPredict the output of the following code snippetint arr[5] = {6, 9}; for(int i = 0; i

String is an important part of programming. Strings are the array of character types. In competitive exams like GATE also it is an important topic. So let’s discuss some key points about string and then we will proceed to some questions that will help you clear your concepts about string.String in a programming language can be stored in two different ways. They are using character array (char str[size]) and using a pointer that will point to the string (char * ch = “Hello”). There are some important things related to the use of the character array and pointer to a ... Read More

Time complexity of any algorithm is the time taken by the algorithm to complete. It is an important metric to show the efficiency of the algorithm and for comparative analysis. We tend to reduce the time complexity of algorithm that makes it more effective.Example 1Find the time complexity of the following code snippetsfor(i= 0 ; i < n; i++){    cout
