花花酱 LeetCode 2097. Valid Arrangement of Pairs

You are given a 0-indexed 2D integer array pairs where pairs[i] = [starti, endi]. An arrangement of pairs is valid if for every index i where 1 <= i < pairs.length, we have endi-1 == starti.

Return any valid arrangement of pairs.

Note: The inputs will be generated such that there exists a valid arrangement of pairs.

Example 1:

Input: pairs = [[5,1],[4,5],[11,9],[9,4]]
Output: [[11,9],[9,4],[4,5],[5,1]]
Explanation:
This is a valid arrangement since endi-1 always equals starti.
end0 = 9 == 9 = start1 
end1 = 4 == 4 = start2
end2 = 5 == 5 = start3

Example 2:

Input: pairs = [[1,3],[3,2],[2,1]]
Output: [[1,3],[3,2],[2,1]]
Explanation:
This is a valid arrangement since endi-1 always equals starti.
end0 = 3 == 3 = start1
end1 = 2 == 2 = start2
The arrangements [[2,1],[1,3],[3,2]] and [[3,2],[2,1],[1,3]] are also valid.

Example 3:

Input: pairs = [[1,2],[1,3],[2,1]]
Output: [[1,2],[2,1],[1,3]]
Explanation:
This is a valid arrangement since endi-1 always equals starti.
end0 = 2 == 2 = start1
end1 = 1 == 1 = start2

Constraints:

  • 1 <= pairs.length <= 105
  • pairs[i].length == 2
  • 0 <= starti, endi <= 109
  • starti != endi
  • No two pairs are exactly the same.
  • There exists a valid arrangement of pairs.

Solution: Eulerian trail

The goal of the problem is to find a Eulerian trail in the graph.

If there is a vertex whose out degree – in degree == 1 which means it’s the starting vertex. Otherwise wise, the graph must have a Eulerian circuit thus we can start from any vertex.

We can use Hierholzer’s algorithm to find it.

Time complexity: O(|V| + |E|)
Space complexity: O(|V| + |E|)
