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 ...

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 ...

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#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 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 ...

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 ...

Suppose we have given a binary tree in which each node holds an integer key. We have to find the paths that sum to a given value. The path should start from root to leaf. We have to find the path where the sum is same.If the tree is like [5, 4, 8, 11, null, 13, 4, 7, 2, null, null, 5, 1], and sum is 22, then it will be −The paths are [[5, 4, 11, 2], [5, 8, 4, 5]].To solve this, we will follow these steps −Use the dfs function to solve this problem, the dfs is ...

Suppose there are some chips, the i-th chip is at present at position chips[i]. We can perform any of the two following types of operations any many numbers of times as we want (possibly zero) on any chip −Move the i-th chip by 2 units to the left side or to the right side with a cost of 0.Move the i-th chip by 1 unit to the left side or to the right side with a cost of 1.Initially, there can be two or more chips. We have to return the minimum cost needed to move all the chips to ...

Suppose we have two binary trees and consider that when we put one of them to cover the other, some nodes of the two trees are overlapped while the others are overlapping. We have to merge them into a new binary tree. The merge rule is like that if two nodes are overlapping, then sum node values up as the new value of the merged node. Otherwise, the non-empty node will be used as the node of the new tree.So if the trees are −Then the output will be −To solve this, we will follow these steps −The method is ...

Suppose we have one ‘head’ which is a reference node to a singly-linked list. The value of each node present in the linked list is either 0 or 1. This linked list stores the binary representation of a number. We have to return the decimal value of the number present in the linked list. So if the list is like [1, 0, 1, 1, 0, 1]To solve this, we will follow these steps −x := convert the list elements into an arraythen reverse the list xans := 0, and temp := 1for i in range i := 0, to size ...

Suppose we have one 2D grid of size m x n. We have another variable k. We have to shift the grid k times. The shift operation will be as followsElement at grid G[i, j] moves to G[i, j + 1]Element at grid G[i, n – 1] moves to G[i + 1, 0]Element at grid G[m - 1, n – 1] moves to G[0, 0]So if the grid is like −123456789The output will be −912345678To solve this, we will follow these steps −The shift operation will take the matrix as inputn = number of rows, m := number of columns, ...
