In this problem, we are given a set S of n number. Our task is to create a program to find the sum of subset difference which is the difference of last and first elements of subset.The formula is, sumSubsetDifference = Σ [last(s) - first(s)] s are subsets of the set S.Let’s take an example to understand the problem, Input −S = {1, 2, 9} n = 3Output −Explanation − All subset are −{1}, last(s) - first(s) = 0 {2}, last(s) - first(s) = 0 {9}, last(s) - first(s) = 0 {1, 2}, last(s) - first(s) = 1 {1, 9}, last(s) ...

In this problem, we are given a number N. Our task is to find the sum of first N natural numbers which are divisible by 2 and 7.So, here we will be given a number N, the program will find the sum of numbers between 1 to N that is divisible by 2 and 7.Let’s take an example to understand the problem, Input −N = 10Output −37Explanation −sum = 2 + 4 + 6 + 7 + 8 + 10 = 37So, the basic idea to solve the problem is to find all the numbers that are divisible by 2 ...

Here, we will write a C program that will display the contents of a file page by page as displayed in Linux using the more command.This program will show a specific number of lines on the screen first and then wait for the user to hit enter to move to the next page i.e. next set of n lines.For displaying the content of the file like this we will open the file and print its contents. And maintain a counter for new lines in the file. When this counter reaches n, we will read a key pressed by the user ...

Array and vectors are very important data structures in competitive programming for solving problems. And the STL (Standard Template Library) in c++ programming provide some functions to perform operations of arrays and vectors.Let’s see some of these functions in action, Finding sum, Min and Max of the array/vector − In STL there are function that helps you to find the sum, max, and min of the array/vector. Functions with there function, Finding sumaccumulate(startIndex, endIndex, initialSum)Greatest element of the array/vecto*max_element(startIndex, endIndex)Smallest element of array/vector*min_element(startIndex, endIndex)Program to perform operations on array −Example#include using namespace std; int main(){    int array[] = ...

In this problem, we are given a dictionary and two words ‘start’ and ‘target’. Our task is to generate a chain (ladder) from start work to target word, the chain is created such that each word differs the other character by only one word and the word should also exist in the dictionary. The target word exists in the dictionary and also the length of all words is the same. The program will return the length of the shortest path from start to target.Let’s take an example to understand the problem, InputDictionary = {‘HEAL’, ‘HATE’, ‘HEAT’, ‘TEAT’, ‘THAT’, ‘WHAT’ , ...

In this problem, we are given a dictionary and a word. Our task is to check if the given wors can be formed using the concatenation of two dictionary words.While forming given words repetition of words is not legal.Let’s take an example to understand the problem, Inputdictionary = {“hello”, “tutorials”, “program” , “problem”, “coding”, “point”} word = “tutorialspoint”OutputyesExplanationtutorialspoint is created using tutorials and point.To solve this problem, we will store all elements of the dictionary in a prefix tree commonly known as a trie. And then search for the prefix of the word in the trie, if found split it ...

In this problem, we are given a number and our task is to check if the number is Woodall number or not.Woodall number is a special type of number which is of the form, Wn = n.2n -1First 5 Woodall numbers are 1, 7, 23, 63, 159Let’s take an example to understand the problem, InputX = 159OutputYesTo solve this problem, we will observe the number, if the number is even then it cannot be Woodall and then check for the number. To check, add the number by 1 and recursively divide the number by 2. after each division count the ...

In this problem, we are given an input string and an array arr[]. Our task is to find all occurrences of all words of the array in the string. For this, we will be using the Aho-Corasick Algorithm for Pattern Searching.String and pattern searching is an important thing in programming. And in programming, the better the algorithm the more practical uses it can have. Aho-Corasick algorithm is a very important and powerful algorithm that makes string searching easy. It is kind of a dictionary matching algorithm, matching all the strings simultaneously. The algorithm uses the Trie data structure for its ...

In this problem, we are given an integer n. Our task is to find the total number of ways in can be expressed as sum of two or more positive integers.Let’s take an example to understand the problem, InputN = 4Output5Explanation4 can be written as the sum in these ways, 4, 3+1, 2+2, 2+1+1, 1+1+1+1To solve this problem, we will use Euler’s recurrence formula. For a number n the total number of ways it can be generated p(n) by, Σ∞n=0 p(n)xn = Π∞k=1 (1/(1-xk ))Using this formula, we will derive formula for p(n), p(n) = p(n-1) + p(n-2) - p(n-5) ...

Updated on 11-Mar-2026 793 Views

In this problem, we are given an array of integers and a number N. Our task is to count the total number of ways N can be generated by adding elements of the array. All combinations and repetitions are allowed.Let’s take an example to understand the problem, Inputarr = {1, 3, 5} N = 6Output8ExplanationThe ways are −5+1, 1+5, 3+3, 3+1+1+1, 1+3+1+1, 1+1+3+1, 1+1+1+3, 1+1+1+1+1+1To solve this problem, we need to use a different approach as all types of combinations will be treated differently so, if the number is a sum of 4 elements of array 4 different ways are ...
