花花酱 LeetCode 1619. Mean of Array After Removing Some Elements

Given an integer array arr, return the mean of the remaining integers after removing the smallest 5% and the largest 5% of the elements.

Answers within 10-5 of the actual answer will be considered accepted.

Example 1:

Input: arr = [1,2,2,2,2,2,2,2,2,2,2,2,2,2,2,2,2,2,2,3]
Output: 2.00000
Explanation: After erasing the minimum and the maximum values of this array, all elements are equal to 2, so the mean is 2.

Example 2:

Input: arr = [6,2,7,5,1,2,0,3,10,2,5,0,5,5,0,8,7,6,8,0]
Output: 4.00000

Example 3:

Input: arr = [6,0,7,0,7,5,7,8,3,4,0,7,8,1,6,8,1,1,2,4,8,1,9,5,4,3,8,5,10,8,6,6,1,0,6,10,8,2,3,4]
Output: 4.77778

Example 4:

Input: arr = [9,7,8,7,7,8,4,4,6,8,8,7,6,8,8,9,2,6,0,0,1,10,8,6,3,3,5,1,10,9,0,7,10,0,10,4,1,10,6,9,3,6,0,0,2,7,0,6,7,2,9,7,7,3,0,1,6,1,10,3]
Output: 5.27778

Example 5:

Input: arr = [4,8,4,10,0,7,1,3,7,8,8,3,4,1,6,2,1,1,8,0,9,8,0,3,9,10,3,10,1,10,7,3,2,1,4,9,10,7,6,4,0,8,5,1,2,1,6,2,5,0,7,10,9,10,3,7,10,5,8,5,7,6,7,6,10,9,5,10,5,5,7,2,10,7,7,8,2,0,1,1]
Output: 5.29167

Constraints:

  • 20 <= arr.length <= 1000
  • arr.lengthis a multiple of 20.
  • 0 <= arr[i] <= 105

Solution: Sorting

Time complexity: O(nlogn)

花花酱 LeetCode 1617. Count Subtrees With Max Distance Between Cities

There are n cities numbered from 1 to n. You are given an array edges of size n-1, where edges[i] = [ui, vi] represents a bidirectional edge between cities ui and vi. There exists a unique path between each pair of cities. In other words, the cities form a tree.

subtree is a subset of cities where every city is reachable from every other city in the subset, where the path between each pair passes through only the cities from the subset. Two subtrees are different if there is a city in one subtree that is not present in the other.

For each d from 1 to n-1, find the number of subtrees in which the maximum distance between any two cities in the subtree is equal to d.

Return an array of size n-1 where the dthelement (1-indexed) is the number of subtrees in which the maximum distance between any two cities is equal to d.

Notice that the distance between the two cities is the number of edges in the path between them.

Example 1:

Input: n = 4, edges = [[1,2],[2,3],[2,4]]
Output: [3,4,0]
Explanation:
The subtrees with subsets {1,2}, {2,3} and {2,4} have a max distance of 1.
The subtrees with subsets {1,2,3}, {1,2,4}, {2,3,4} and {1,2,3,4} have a max distance of 2.
No subtree has two nodes where the max distance between them is 3.

Example 2:

Input: n = 2, edges = [[1,2]]
Output: [1]

Example 3:

Input: n = 3, edges = [[1,2],[2,3]]
Output: [2,1]

Constraints:

  • 2 <= n <= 15
  • edges.length == n-1
  • edges[i].length == 2
  • 1 <= ui, vi <= n
  • All pairs (ui, vi) are distinct.

Solution1: Brute Force + Diameter of tree

Try all subtrees and find the diameter of that subtree (longest distance between any node)

Time complexity: O(2^n * n)
Space complexity: O(n)

C++

Solution 2: DP on Trees

dp[i][k][d] := # of subtrees rooted at i with tree diameter of d and the distance from i to the farthest node is k.

Time complexity: O(n^5)
Space complexity: O(n^3)

花花酱 LeetCode 1616. Split Two Strings to Make Palindrome

You are given two strings a and b of the same length. Choose an index and split both strings at the same index, splitting a into two strings: aprefix and asuffix where a = aprefix + asuffix, and splitting b into two strings: bprefix and bsuffix where b = bprefix + bsuffix. Check if aprefix + bsuffix or bprefix + asuffix forms a palindrome.

When you split a string s into sprefix and ssuffix, either ssuffix or sprefix is allowed to be empty. For example, if s = "abc", then "" + "abc""a" + "bc""ab" + "c" , and "abc" + "" are valid splits.

Return true if it is possible to form a palindrome string, otherwise return false.

Notice that x + y denotes the concatenation of strings x and y.

Example 1:

Input: a = "x", b = "y"
Output: true
Explaination: If either a or b are palindromes the answer is true since you can split in the following way:
aprefix = "", asuffix = "x"
bprefix = "", bsuffix = "y"
Then, aprefix + bsuffix = "" + "y" = "y", which is a palindrome.

Example 2:

Input: a = "abdef", b = "fecab"
Output: true

Example 3:

Input: a = "ulacfd", b = "jizalu"
Output: true
Explaination: Split them at index 3:
aprefix = "ula", asuffix = "cfd"
bprefix = "jiz", bsuffix = "alu"
Then, aprefix + bsuffix = "ula" + "alu" = "ulaalu", which is a palindrome.

Example 4:

Input: a = "xbdef", b = "xecab"
Output: false

Constraints:

  • 1 <= a.length, b.length <= 105
  • a.length == b.length
  • a and b consist of lowercase English letters

Solution: Greedy

Try to match the prefix of A and suffix of B (or the other way) as much as possible and then check whether the remaining part is a palindrome or not.

e.g. A = “abcxyzzz”, B = “uuuvvcba”
A’s prefix abc matches B’s suffix cba
We just need to check whether “xy” or “vv” is palindrome or not.
The concatenated string “abc|vvcba” is a palindrome, left abc is from A and vvcba is from B.

Time complexity: O(n)
Space complexity: O(1)

花花酱 LeetCode 1615. Maximal Network Rank

There is an infrastructure of n cities with some number of roads connecting these cities. Each roads[i] = [ai, bi] indicates that there is a bidirectional road between cities ai and bi.

The network rankof two different cities is defined as the total number of directly connected roads to either city. If a road is directly connected to both cities, it is only counted once.

The maximal network rank of the infrastructure is the maximum network rank of all pairs of different cities.

Given the integer n and the array roads, return the maximal network rank of the entire infrastructure.

Example 1:

Input: n = 4, roads = [[0,1],[0,3],[1,2],[1,3]]
Output: 4
Explanation: The network rank of cities 0 and 1 is 4 as there are 4 roads that are connected to either 0 or 1. The road between 0 and 1 is only counted once.

Example 2:

Input: n = 5, roads = [[0,1],[0,3],[1,2],[1,3],[2,3],[2,4]]
Output: 5
Explanation: There are 5 roads that are connected to cities 1 or 2.

Example 3:

Input: n = 8, roads = [[0,1],[1,2],[2,3],[2,4],[5,6],[5,7]]
Output: 5
Explanation: The network rank of 2 and 5 is 5. Notice that all the cities do not have to be connected.

Constraints:

  • 2 <= n <= 100
  • 0 <= roads.length <= n * (n - 1) / 2
  • roads[i].length == 2
  • 0 <= ai, bi <= n-1
  • ai != bi
  • Each pair of cities has at most one road connecting them.

Solution: Counting degrees and all pairs

Counting degrees for each node, if a and b are not connected, ans = degrees(a) + degrees(b), otherwise ans -= 1

Time complexity: O(E + V^2)
Space complexity: O(E)

花花酱 LeetCode 1614. Maximum Nesting Depth of the Parentheses

A string is a valid parentheses string (denoted VPS) if it meets one of the following:

  • It is an empty string "", or a single character not equal to "(" or ")",
  • It can be written as AB (A concatenated with B), where A and B are VPS‘s, or
  • It can be written as (A), where A is a VPS.

We can similarly define the nesting depth depth(S) of any VPS S as follows:

  • depth("") = 0
  • depth(A + B) = max(depth(A), depth(B)), where A and B are VPS‘s
  • depth("(" + A + ")") = 1 + depth(A), where A is a VPS.

For example, """()()", and "()(()())" are VPS‘s (with nesting depths 0, 1, and 2), and ")(" and "(()" are not VPS‘s.

Given a VPS represented as string s, return the nesting depth of s.

Example 1:

Input: s = "(1+(2*3)+((8)/4))+1"
Output: 3
Explanation: Digit 8 is inside of 3 nested parentheses in the string.

Example 2:

Input: s = "(1)+((2))+(((3)))"
Output: 3

Example 3:

Input: s = "1+(2*3)/(2-1)"
Output: 1

Example 4:

Input: s = "1"
Output: 0

Constraints:

  • 1 <= s.length <= 100
  • s consists of digits 0-9 and characters '+''-''*''/''(', and ')'.
  • It is guaranteed that parentheses expression s is a VPS.

Solution: Stack

We only need to deal with ‘(‘ and ‘)’

Space complexity: O(1)
