IntToLongFunction is a built-in functional interface from java.util.function package. This functional interface accepts an int-valued parameter and produces a long-valued result. IntToLongFunction interface can be used as an assignment target for a lambda expression or method reference. It contains only one abstract method: applyAsLong().Syntax@FunctionalInterface interface IntToLongFunction {  long applyAsLong(int value); }Example of Lambda Expressionimport java.util.function.IntToLongFunction; public class IntToLongFunctionLambdaTest {    public static void main(String args[]) {       IntToLongFunction getLong = intVal -> {      // lambda expression          long longVal = intVal;          return longVal;       };           int input = 40; ...

IntToDoubleFunction is a functional interface from java.util.function package. This functional interface accepts an int-valued argument and produces a double-valued result. IntToDoubleFunction can be used as an assignment target for a lambda expression or method reference. It contains only one abstract method: applyAsDouble().Syntax@FunctionalInterface interface IntToDoubleFunction {    double applyAsDouble(int value); }Example of Lambda Expressionimport java.util.function.IntToDoubleFunction;; public class IntToDoubleLambdaTest {    public static void main(String[] args) {       IntToDoubleFunction getDouble = intVal -> {      // lambda expression          double doubleVal = intVal;          return doubleVal;       };       int input ...

In this problem, we are given a sorting algorithm and a number n. Our task is to print an array of n elements that could not be sorted by the algorithm. i.e the algorithm will fail.Algorithmloop i from 1 to n-1    loop j from i to n-1    if a[j]>a[i+1]       swap(a[i], a[j+1])Let’s look into this sorting algorithm, it is using two nested loops. The outer one will start from 1 to n-1 and inner one from i to n-1, and will check the value of inner loop element and outer loop elements at each iteration and ... Read More

In this problem, we are given a string. Our task is to print a string that is closest to the current string and does not contain any adjacent duplicate characters.Let’s take an example to understand the problemInput: string = “good” Output: goadIn this example, we found that the elements at index 1 and 2 are the same, so we change the elements at index 2.To solve this problem, we will traverse the string and check if any two adjacent elements have are same. If yes, then change the second element (if i and i+1 elements are the same, change i+1 ... Read More

In this problem, we are given a 2-dimensional matrix. And our task is to print the elements of the matrix in a counter-clockwise spiral from.Counterclockwise Spiral Form − It is a spiral traversal which starts from top-left and the goes in the counter-clockwise direction to first bottom-right-up-left.The counter-clockwise traversal will be 1 5 9 13 14 15 16 12 8 4 3 2 6 10 11 7.Let’s take an example to understand the problemInput:    2 4 6    1 7 9    5 0 3 Output: 2 1 5 0 3 9 7To solve this problem, we will be ...

In this problem, we are given a 2-dimensional matrix. Our task is to print all the elements of the matrix in reverse spiral form.Let’s take an example to understand the problemInput:    12 23 54 67    76 90 01 51    43 18 49 5    31 91 75 9 Output: 18 49 1 90 76 43 31 91 75 9 5 51 67 54 23 12We will start from the center of the matrix and print elements in reverse spiral direction taking four loops for printing elements in reverse direction.ExampleProgram to show the implementation of our solution Live Demo#include ...

In this problem, we are given a 2-dimensional matrix. Our task is to print the zigzag form of the matrix.Let’s take an example to understand the problemInput:    12 99 43    10 82 50    15 75 5 Output: 12 99 43 50 82 10 15 75 5To solve this problem, we will print the elements of the array in both directions (LtoR and RtoL). And change the direction using the flag variable.Example Live Demo#include using namespace std; void printZigZagPattern(int row, int col, int a[][5]) {    int evenRow = 0;    int oddRow = 1;    while (evenRow

In this problem, we are a 2d matrix and a point P(c, r). Our task is to print all elements of the matrix in a spiral form (anti-clockwise) that starts from a given point P.Let’s take an example to understand our problem, Input: matrix[][] = {{3, 5, 7} } Output:To solve this problem, we use 4 loops for printing elements. Each loop prints elements of its own direction. We will start our printing from point p and go on printing the spiral form.ExampleProgram to show the implementation of our solution Live Demo#include using namespace std; const int MAX = 100; ...

In this problem, we are given a 2D array. Our task is to print all the elements of the array starting from the first row, from left to right, then right to left in the next row and again from left to right and so on.Let’s take an example to understand the problem.Input: array = {    {2, 5}    {4, 9} } Output: 2 5 9 4To solve this problem, we will print elements in the given direction (LtoR and RtoL) of a row. And a flag element to show the direction of printing will switch after every iteration.This ... Read More

In this problem, we are given a matrix. Our task is to print the matrix in reverse waveform in a single line.This example will make the problem clear, Input:    1 4 6 11    2 5 8 54    7 9 3 43    1 7 4 34 Output: 11 54 43 34 4 3 8 6 4 5 9 7 1 7 2 1To solve this problem, we have to print the reverse waveform of our matrix and for this, we will print the elements of the last column in the downward direction and then second-last column’s elements ...
