Suppose we have a list of numbers called nums and an integer k, we have to check whether we can remove exactly one element from the list to make the average equal to exactly k. Now we have to keep in mind that, there are some constraints −2 ≤ n ≤ 1, 000 where n is number of elements of nums listnums[i], k ≤ 1, 000, 000So, if the input is like [5, 3, 2, 4, 6, 10], k = 4, then the output will be True as if we remove 10, then the average of elements will be (5+3+2+4+6)/5 ...

Suppose we have a number a, we have to find n, such that factorial of n (n!) is same as a. As we know, the factorial n = n * (n - 1) * (n - 2) * ... * 1. If there is no such integer n then return -1.So, if the input is like a = 120, then the output will be 5.To solve this, we will follow these steps −i := 0, num := 1L:= a new listwhile i < a, doi := factorial of numinsert i at the end of Lnum := num + 1if a ...

Suppose we have a list of intervals, where each interval is like [start, end] this is representing start and end times of an intervals (inclusive), We have to find their intersection, i.e. the interval that lies within all of the given intervals.So, if the input is like [[10, 110], [20, 60], [25, 75]], then the output will be [25, 60]To solve this, we will follow these steps −start, end := interval after deleting last element from intervals listwhile intervals is not empty, dostart_temp, end_temp := interval after deleting last element from intervals liststart := maximum of start, start_tempend := minimum ...

Suppose we have two strings s and t, we have to find two strings interleaved, starting with first string s. If there are leftover characters in a string they will be added to the end.So, if the input is like s = "abcd", t = "pqrstu", then the output will be "apbqcrdstu"To solve this, we will follow these steps −res:= blank stringi:= 0m:= minimum of size of s, size of twhile i < m, dores := res concatenate s[i] concatenate t[i]i := i + 1return res concatenate s[from index i to end] concatenate t [from index i to end]Example Live Democlass ...

Suppose we have a list of numbers nums, we have to put all the zeros to the end of the list by updating the list in-place. And the relative ordering of other elements should not be changed. We have to try to solve this in O(1) additional space.So, if the input is like [2, 0, 1, 4, 0, 5, 6, 4, 0, 1, 7], then the output will be [2, 1, 4, 5, 6, 4, 1, 7, 0, 0, 0]To solve this, we will follow these steps −if size of L is same as 0, thenreturn a blank listk := ...

Suppose we have a string s and two integers i and j (i < j). Now suppose p is an infinite string of s repeating forever. We have to find the substring of p from indexes [i, j).So, if the input is like s = "programmer", i = 4, j = 8, then the output will be "ramm".To solve this, we will follow these steps −p:= blank stringfor t in range i to j, dop := p concatenate a character from s at index (t mod size of s)return pLet us see the following implementation to get better understanding −Example Live ...

Suppose we have a list of numbers called nums, we have to find the most frequently present element and get the number of occurrences of that element.So, if the input is like [1, 5, 8, 5, 6, 3, 2, 45, 7, 5, 8, 7, 1, 4, 6, 8, 9, 10], then the output will be 3 as the number 5 occurs three times.To solve this, we will follow these steps −max:= 0length:= size of numsfor i in range 0 to length-2, docount:= 1for j in range i+1 to length-1, doif nums[i] is same as nums[j], thencount := count + 1if ...

Suppose we have a non-negative number n, we have to find a number r such that r * r = n and we have to round down to the nearest integer. We have to solve this problem without using the builtin square-root function.So, if the input is like 1025, then the output will be 32.To solve this, we will follow these steps −if n
