In this problem, we are given an integer X. Our task is to find the total number of steps that are taken to transform from 0 to X.Valid transformation − One step is counted when one transformation takes place from A to B. The condition for the transform to take place is A != B and A & B = A (& is bitwise AND). So, 1 step is transforming from A to B and we have to create a program that will count the maximum number of steps to transform 0 to X.Let’s take an example to understand the ...

In this problem, we are given a binary tree and two levels in the tree (upper and lower) and we have to print all nodes between upper and lower levels of the tree.The binary tree is a special tree whose each node has at max two nodes (one/two/none).Let’s take an example to understand the problem −upper − 1lower − 3Output −6 3 9 7 4 8 10To solve this problem, we have to print nodes of the tree at a given level. We will call a recursive function using a loop from the upper to lower level in the tree.This algorithm is simple ...

In this problem, we are given an array. Our task is to create a program that will find the maximum subarray sum after inverting at most two elements in C++.Problem description − Here, we can have to find the subarray that will produce the maximum sum on inverting the sign of any two numbers of the array.Let’s take an example to understand the problem, Input − array = {-5, 1, 3, 8, -2, 4, 7}Output − 30Explanation − we will consider elements from index 0 to 6 and invert values -5 and -2 to get the array with max sum.To ...

In this problem, we are given a binary tree, a target node and an integer K. We have to print all the nodes of the tree that are at a distance K from the target node.Binary Tree is a special tree whose each node has at max two nodes (one/two/none).Let’s take an example to understand the problemK = 2Target node: 9Output −5 1 3.Explanation −The distance can be taken for node a higher, lower or at the same level. So, we will return nodes accordingly.To solve this problem we have to understand what are the types of nodes that are ...

In this problem, we are given an array and an integer k. Our task is to create a program that will find the maximum subarray sum by flipping signs of at most k array elements in C++.Code description − Here, we will have to find at most k elements to flip in the array which will make the sum of subarray created from this array maximum.Let’s take an example to understand the problem, Input − array = {1, -2, 7, 0} k = 2Output − 10Explanation − we will flip only one element which is -2, it makes the array ...

Given an array arr[n] containing n prime numbers and k; the task is to find the product of every k’th prime number in an array.Like, we have an array arr[] = {3, 5, 7, 11} and k = 2 so the prime number after every k i.e 5 and 11 we have to find their product which will be 5x11 = 55 and print the result as output.What are prime numbers?A prime number is a natural number which can’t be divided by any other number except 1 or the number itself. Some of the prime numbers are 2, 3, 5, ...

Given weights and values of n items; the task is to print the items according to 0/1 knapsack for the following weights and values in a knapsack of capacity W, to get the maximum total value in the knapsack.What is 0/1 Knapsack?Knapsack is like a bag with only a fixed size or a bag which can handle a certain amount of weight. Each item which is included in a knapsack have some value(profit) and some weight to it. We have to add those weights which will get us the maximum profit according to the total weight a knapsack could hold.So ...
