Suppose there are n candles which are aligned from left to right. The i-th candle from the left side has the height h[i] and the color c[i]. We also have an integer k, represents there are colors in range 1 to k. We have to find how many strictly increasing colorful sequences of candies are there? The increasing sequence is checked based on heights, and a sequence is said to be colorful if there are at least one candle of each color in range 1 to K are available. If the answer is too large, then return result mod 10^9 + 7.
So, if the input is like K = 3 h = [1,3,2,4] c = [1,2,2,3], then the output will be 2 because it has sequences [1,2,4] and [1,3,4].
To solve this, we will follow these steps −
Let us see the following implementation to get better understanding −
def solve(k, h, c): def read(T, i): s = 0 while i > 0: s += T[i] s %= 1000000007 i -= (i & -i) return s def update(T, i, v): while i <= 50010: T[i] += v T[i] %= 1000000007 i += (i & -i) return v def number_of_bits(b): c = 0 while b: b &= b - 1 c += 1 return c L = 2 ** k R = 0 N = len(h) for i in range(L): T = [0 for _ in range(50010)] t = 0 for j in range(N): if (i >> (c[j] - 1)) & 1: t += update(T, h[j], read(T, h[j] - 1) + 1) t %= 1000000007 if number_of_bits(i) % 2 == k % 2: R += t R %= 1000000007 else: R += 1000000007 - t R %= 1000000007 return R k = 3 h = [1,3,2,4] c = [1,2,2,3] print(solve(k, h, c))
