Suppose there is a bomb that you are going to defuse, and your time is running out! You have a a circular array code of length of n and have a key k. Now to decrypt the code, you must replace every number. All the numbers are replaced simultaneously. There are few rules −If k > 0 then replace ith number with the sum of next k numbers.If k < 0 then replace ith number with the sum of previous k numbers.If k = 0 then replace ith number with 0.Here the code is circular, so the next element of ...

Suppose we have two strings s and t of same length. Consider an operation where we choose two indices in a string (not necessarily different) and swap the characters at the selected indices. We have to check whether it is possible to make both strings same by performing at most one string swap on exactly one of the strings or not.So, if the input is like s = "hello" t = "hlelo", then the output will be True because we need to swap 'e' and 'l' at either s or t to make them equal.To solve this, we will follow ...

Suppose we have two string type arrays word1 and word2, we have to check whether the two arrays represent the same string or not. We can say a string can be represented by an array if the elements in that array are concatenated in order forms the string.So, if the input is like word1 = ["ko", "lka", "ta"] word2 = ["k", "olk", "at", "a"], then the output will be True as both are forming "kolkata".To solve this, we will follow these steps −s1:= blank string, s2:= blank stringfor each string i in word1, dos1 := s1 concatenate ifor each string ...

Suppose we have an alphanumeric string s, we have to find the second largest numerical digit that appears in s, if there is no such string then return -1.So, if the input is like s = "p84t3ho1n", then the output will be 4 as the digits are [1,3,4,8], so second largest digit is 4.To solve this, we will follow these steps −lst := a new setfor each let in s, doif let is not alphabetic, theninsert let as integer in lstif size of lst

Suppose we have a sequence of characters called s, we say a string w is k-repeating string if w is concatenated k times is a substring of sequence. The w's maximum k-repeating value will be the highest value k where w is k-repeating in sequence. And if w is not a substring of the given sequence, w's maximum k-repeating value is 0. So if we have s and w we have to find the maximum k-repeating value of w in sequence.So, if the input is like s = "papaya" w = "pa", then the output will be 2 as w ...

Suppose we have an array of positive values called nums, we have to find the maximum possible sum of an ascending subarray in nums. We can say a subarray [nums_l, nums_l+1, ..., nums_r-1, nums_r] is ascending when for all i where l nums[i-1], thentotal := total + nums[i]otherwise, total:= nums[i]if total > max_total, thenmax_total:= totalreturn max_totalLet us see the following implementation to get better understanding −Exampledef solve(nums):    total=nums[0]    max_total=nums[0]    for i in range(1, len(nums)):       if nums[i] > nums[i-1]:          total+=nums[i]       else:          total=nums[i]   ...

Suppose we have a matrix of order m x n called accounts where accounts[i][j] is the amount of money of ith customer present in jth bank. We have to find the wealth that the richest customer has. A customer is richest when he/she has maximum amount considering all banks.So, if the input is like102015305201051215123then the output will be 55 as the money of second person is 30+5+20 = 55, which is maximum.To solve this, we will follow these steps −max_balue := 0ind_value := 0for i in range 0 to row count of accounts - 1, doind_value := sum of all ...

Suppose we have a lowercase alphanumeric string s. We shave to replace every non-digit character with a space, but now we are left with some integers that are separated by at least one space. We have to find the number of different integers after performing the replacement operations on s. Here two numbers are considered as different if their decimal representations without any leading zeros are different.So, if the input is like s = "ab12fg012th5er67", then the output will be 3 because, there are few numbers ["12", "012", "5", "67"] now "12" and "012" are different in string but same ...

Suppose, there are n number of student groups waiting to get back from their college to their home via the college bus. In each student group, there are m number of students. The student groups want to travel by bus without getting separated. They board the bus if and only if all the members of their group can get on the bus. Also, a group does not board the bus if their previous group has not boarded the bus or has already reached their destination. If we are given the number of groups and the number of students in each ...

Suppose we have a chessboard coordinate, that is a string that represents the coordinates of row and column of the chessboard. Below is a chessboard for your reference.We have to check whether given cell is white or not, if white return true, otherwise return false.So, if the input is like coordinate = "f5", then the output will be True (See the image)To solve this, we will follow these steps −if ASCII of coordinate[0] mod 2 is same coordinate[1]) mod 2, thenreturn Falseotherwise, return TrueLet us see the following implementation to get better understanding −Exampledef solve(coordinate):    if (ord(coordinate[0]))%2 == int(coordinate[1])%2: ...
