Suppose we have k different lists. The elements are sorted. We have to search the smallest range that includes at least one number from each of the k different lists. Here the range [a, b] is smaller than range [c, d] when b-a < d-c or a < c if b-a == d-c.So if the input is like [[4, 10, 15, 25, 26], [0, 9, 14, 20], [5, 18, 24, 30]], then the output will be [14, 18]To solve this, we will follow these steps −minRange := inf, maxRange := -inf, rangeSize := inf, tempMinRange := inf, tempMaxRange := -infn ...

In this tutorial, we will be discussing a program to find greater value between a^n and b^n.For this we will be provided with three numbers. Our task is to calculate a^n and b^n and return back the greater of those values.Example#include using namespace std; //finding the greater value void findGreater(int a, int b, int n){    if (!(n & 1)) {       a = abs(a);       b = abs(b);    }    if (a == b)       cout b)       cout

The task is to maximize the value of number A by replacing some of its digits with digits present in another number B. No digits will be replaced if A’s value cannot be maximized.Note − a digit from B can be used only once.Let’s now understand what we have to do using an example −Input A = “1221” B = “1211”Output Maximum value of A possible 2221Explanation − We here select 2 from B and replace it with the first 1 of A. Here it is the only choice as replacing any other digit of A with either 2 or 1 will ...

Probability Pi= (No. of Favourable Outcomes) / (Total no. of Outcomes).Given is a number N which is the number of containers present. And we have N copies of two numbers X and Y. The task is to divide copies of one number X into N containers such that the probability of drawing a copy of X is maximum. From above it can be seen that to maximize Pi, we can either maximize the numerator ( No. of favourable outcomes) or minimize the denominator(Total no. of Outcomes). This can be done in a manner that only one container has a copy ...

In this tutorial, we will be discussing a program to find maximum of sum and product of digits until number is reduced to a single digitFor this we will be provided with a random number. Our task is to find and print out the maximum of sum and product of the digits of the given number until it coverts to a single digitExample#include using namespace std; //converting number to single digit by adding long repeatedSum(long n) {    if (n == 0)       return 0;    return (n % 9 == 0) ? 9 : (n % 9); ...

In this tutorial, we will be discussing a program to find maximum parent children sum in Binary treeFor this we will be provided with a binary tree. Our task is to add up the parent node with its children nodes and finally find the maximum of all of that and print it out.Example#include using namespace std; struct Node {    int data;    struct Node *left, *right; }; //inserting nodes struct Node* newNode(int n) {    struct Node* root = new Node();    root->data = n;    root->left = root->right = NULL;    return root; } int maxSum(struct Node* ...

Suppose we have a balanced binary search tree and a target sum, we have to define a method that checks whether it is a pair with sum equals to target sum, or not. In this case. We have to keep in mind that the Binary Search Tree is immutable.So, if the input is likethen the output will be (9 + 26 = 35)To solve this, we will follow these steps −Define stacks s1, s2done1 := false, done2 := falseval1 := 0, val2 := 0curr1 := root, curr2 := rootinfinite loop, do −while done1 is false, do −if curr1 is not ...

In this tutorial, we will be discussing a program to find maximum path sum for each position with jumps under divisibility conditionFor this we will be provided with an array of n random integers. Our task is to jump from one position to another if it divides it and finally provide the maximum sum path for every given position.Example#include using namespace std; //finding maximum sum path void printMaxSum(int arr[], int n) {    int dp[n];    memset(dp, 0, sizeof dp);    for (int i = 0; i < n; i++) {       dp[i] = arr[i];     ...

In this tutorial, we will be discussing a program to find maximum path sum that starting with any cell of 0-th row and ending with any cell of (N-1)-th rowFor this we will be provided with a matrix with possible moves of (i+1, j), (i+1, j-1), (i+1, j+1). Our task is to start from zeroth position and move to last row finding out the maximum sum path.Example#include using namespace std; #define N 4 //finding maximum sum path int MaximumPath(int Mat[][N]) {    int result = 0 ;    int dp[N][N+2];    memset(dp, 0, sizeof(dp));    for (int i = 0 ...
