Suppose we have an integer array; we have to find the length of its longest harmonious subsequence among all its possible subsequences. As we know a harmonious sequence array is an array where the difference between its maximum value and its minimum value is exactly 1.So, if the input is like [1, 3, 2, 2, 5, 2, 3, 7], then the output will be 5, as the longest harmonious subsequence is [4, 3, 3, 3, 4].To solve this, we will follow these steps −Define one map mfor n in nums −(increase m[n] by 1)for key-value pair (k, v) in m ...

Suppose we have a chemical formula; we have to find the count of each atom.An atomic element will always start with an uppercase character, there can be zero or more lowercase letters, representing the name. And 1 or more digits representing the count of that element may follow if the count is greater than 1. But if the count is 1, no digits will follow. As an example, H2O and H2O2 both are valid, but H1O2 is invalid.So, if the input is like Na2(CO)3, then the output will be C3Na2O3, so this indicates 3 Carbon (C), 2 Sodium (Na), 3 ...

Suppose we have a spatial binary string. This string has following few properties −There are same number of 0s and 1sEvery Prefix in the binary string has at least as many 1s as 0sNow suppose we have special string S, a move is actually choosing two consecutive, non-empty, special substrings of S, and swapping them.We have to find the lexicographically largest resulting string possible, at the end of any number of moves.So, if the input is like 11011000, then the output will be 11100100, this is because: The substrings "10" and "1100" are swapped. This is the lexicographically largest string ...

Suppose we have one m * n matrix called M and this is initialized with all 0's and we also have several update operations. Now, operations are represented by a 2D array, and each operation is represented by an array with two positive integers x and y, it means M[i][j] should be added by one for all values i in range 0 to a - 1 and all values j in range 0 to b - 1. We have to find the count of the number of maximum integer in the matrix after performing all the operations.So, if the input ...

Suppose there are N couples and they have sat on 2N seats arranged in a row and want to hold hands. We have to find the minimum number of swaps so that every couple is sitting side by side.The people and seats are represented by a number from 0 to 2N-1, the couples are numbered in order, this is like the first couple as (0, 1), the second couple as (2, 3), and so on and the last couple as (2N-2, 2N-1).The couples' initial seating is given by another array called row, and row[i] being the value of the person ...

Suppose we have an integer array; we have to find three numbers whose product is maximum then return the maximum product.So, if the input is like [1, 1, 2, 3, 3], then the output will be 18, as the three elements are [2, 3, 3].To solve this, we will follow these steps −sort the array numsl := size of numsa := nums[l - 1], b := nums[l - 2], c := nums[l - 3], d := nums[0], e := nums[1]return maximum of a * b * c and d * e * aExample Let us see the following implementation to get ...

Suppose we have one 2x3 board, there are 5 tiles those are represented by the numbers 1 through 5, and one empty square is there, that is represented by 0.Here a move means 0 and one adjacent number (top, bottom, left or right) and swapping it. This will be solved when the elements are arranged in this manner: [[1, 2, 3], [4, 5, 0]].We have the puzzle board; we have to find the least number of moves required so that the state of the board is solved. If this is not possible to solve, then return -1.So, if the input ...

Suppose we have a 2D grid of binary values (0s and 1s), we change at most one 0 to a 1. After that we have to find what is the size of the largest island? Here an island is a 4-directionally (top, bottom, left, right) connected group of 1s.So, if the input is like [[1, 0], [0, 1]], then the output will be 3, this is because if we change one 0 to 1 and connect two 1s, then we will get an island with area = 3.To solve this, we will follow these steps −Define an array dir of ...

Suppose we want to define a function called countUniqueChars(s) that will return the number of unique characters on s, so if s = "HELLOWORLD" then "H", "E", "W", "R", "D" are the unique characters since they appear only once in s, therefore countUniqueChars(s) = 5.Now on this problem given a string s we have to find the sum of countUniqueChars(t) where t is a substring of s. (Here some substrings can be repeated so on this case we have to count the repeated ones too.)As the answer can be very large, we can return answer modulo 10^9+7.So, if the input ...

Suppose we have a non-negative integer c, we have to decide whether there're two integers a and b such that it satisfies a^2 + b^2 = c.So, if the input is like 61, then the output will be True, as 61 = 5^2 + 6^2.To solve this, we will follow these steps −Define a function isPerfect(), this will take x, sr := square root of xreturn true when (sr - floor of sr) is 0From the main method do the following, if c is same as 0, then −return truefor initialize i := 0, when i < the ceiling of ...
