花花酱 LeetCode 1195. Fizz Buzz Multithreaded

Write a program that outputs the string representation of numbers from 1 to n, however:

  • If the number is divisible by 3, output “fizz”.
  • If the number is divisible by 5, output “buzz”.
  • If the number is divisible by both 3 and 5, output “fizzbuzz”.

For example, for n = 15, we output: 1, 2, fizz, 4, buzz, fizz, 7, 8, fizz, buzz, 11, fizz, 13, 14, fizzbuzz.

Suppose you are given the following code:

class FizzBuzz {
  public FizzBuzz(int n) { ... }               // constructor
  public void fizz(printFizz) { ... }          // only output "fizz"
  public void buzz(printBuzz) { ... }          // only output "buzz"
  public void fizzbuzz(printFizzBuzz) { ... }  // only output "fizzbuzz"
  public void number(printNumber) { ... }      // only output the numbers
}

Implement a multithreaded version of FizzBuzz with four threads. The same instance of FizzBuzz will be passed to four different threads:

  1. Thread A will call fizz() to check for divisibility of 3 and outputs fizz.
  2. Thread B will call buzz() to check for divisibility of 5 and outputs buzz.
  3. Thread C will call fizzbuzz() to check for divisibility of 3 and 5 and outputs fizzbuzz.
  4. Thread D will call number() which should only output the numbers.

Solution:

4 Semaphores

花花酱 LeetCode 1202. Smallest String With Swaps

You are given a string s, and an array of pairs of indices in the string pairs where pairs[i] = [a, b] indicates 2 indices(0-indexed) of the string.

You can swap the characters at any pair of indices in the given pairs any number of times.

Return the lexicographically smallest string that s can be changed to after using the swaps.

Example 1:

Input: s = "dcab", pairs = [[0,3],[1,2]]
Output: "bacd"
Explaination: 
Swap s[0] and s[3], s = "bcad"
Swap s[1] and s[2], s = "bacd"

Example 2:

Input: s = "dcab", pairs = [[0,3],[1,2],[0,2]]
Output: "abcd"
Explaination: 
Swap s[0] and s[3], s = "bcad"
Swap s[0] and s[2], s = "acbd"
Swap s[1] and s[2], s = "abcd"

Example 3:

Input: s = "cba", pairs = [[0,1],[1,2]]
Output: "abc"
Explaination: 
Swap s[0] and s[1], s = "bca"
Swap s[1] and s[2], s = "bac"
Swap s[0] and s[1], s = "abc"

Constraints:

  • 1 <= s.length <= 10^5
  • 0 <= pairs.length <= 10^5
  • 0 <= pairs[i][0], pairs[i][1] < s.length
  • s only contains lower case English letters.

Solution: Connected Components

Use DFS / Union-Find to find all the connected components of swapable indices. For each connected components (index group), extract the subsequence of corresponding chars as a string, sort it and put it back to the original string in the same location.

e.g. s = “dcab”, pairs = [[0,3],[1,2]]
There are two connected components: {0,3}, {1,2}
subsequences:
1. 0,3 “db”, sorted: “bd”
2. 1,2 “ca”, sorted: “ac”
0 => b
1 => a
2 => c
3 => d
final = “bacd”

Time complexity: DFS: O(nlogn + k*(V+E)), Union-Find: O(nlogn + V+E)
Space complexity: O(n)

花花酱 LeetCode 1200. Minimum Absolute Difference

Given an array of distinct integers arr, find all pairs of elements with the minimum absolute difference of any two elements. 

Return a list of pairs in ascending order(with respect to pairs), each pair [a, b] follows

  • a, b are from arr
  • a < b
  • b - a equals to the minimum absolute difference of any two elements in arr

Example 1:

Input: arr = [4,2,1,3]
Output: [[1,2],[2,3],[3,4]]
Explanation: The minimum absolute difference is 1. List all pairs with difference equal to 1 in ascending order.

Example 2:

Input: arr = [1,3,6,10,15]
Output: [[1,3]]

Example 3:

Input: arr = [3,8,-10,23,19,-4,-14,27]
Output: [[-14,-10],[19,23],[23,27]]

Constraints:

  • 2 <= arr.length <= 10^5
  • -10^6 <= arr[i] <= 10^6

Solution: Sorting

The min abs difference could only happen between consecutive numbers in sorted form.

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

花花酱 LeetCode 1201. Ugly Number III

Write a program to find the n-th ugly number.

Ugly numbers are positive integers which are divisible by a or b or c.

Example 1:

Input: n = 3, a = 2, b = 3, c = 5
Output: 4
Explanation: The ugly numbers are 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 8, 9, 10... The 3rd is 4.

Example 2:

Input: n = 4, a = 2, b = 3, c = 4
Output: 6
Explanation: The ugly numbers are 2, 3, 4, 6, 8, 9, 12... The 4th is 6.

Example 3:

Input: n = 5, a = 2, b = 11, c = 13
Output: 10
Explanation: The ugly numbers are 2, 4, 6, 8, 10, 11, 12, 13... The 5th is 10.

Example 4:

Input: n = 1000000000, a = 2, b = 217983653, c = 336916467
Output: 1999999984

Constraints:

  • 1 <= n, a, b, c <= 10^9
  • 1 <= a * b * c <= 10^18
  • It’s guaranteed that the result will be in range [1, 2 * 10^9]

Solution: Binary Search

Number of ugly numbers that are <= m are:

m / a + m / b + m / c – (m / LCM(a,b) + m / LCM(a, c) + m / LCM(b, c) + m / LCM(a, LCM(b, c))

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

花花酱 LeetCode 1192. Critical Connections in a Network

There are n servers numbered from 0 to n-1 connected by undirected server-to-server connections forming a network where connections[i] = [a, b] represents a connection between servers a and b. Any server can reach any other server directly or indirectly through the network.

critical connection is a connection that, if removed, will make some server unable to reach some other server.

Return all critical connections in the network in any order.

Example 1:

Input: n = 4, connections = [[0,1],[1,2],[2,0],[1,3]]
Output: [[1,3]]
Explanation: [[3,1]] is also accepted.

Constraints:

  • 1 <= n <= 10^5
  • n-1 <= connections.length <= 10^5
  • connections[i][0] != connections[i][1]
  • There are no repeated connections.
