花花酱 LeetCode 648. Replace Words

Problem

https://leetcode.com/problems/replace-words/description/

In English, we have a concept called root, which can be followed by some other words to form another longer word – let’s call this word successor. For example, the root an, followed by other, which can form another word another.

Now, given a dictionary consisting of many roots and a sentence. You need to replace all the successor in the sentence with the root forming it. If a successor has many roots can form it, replace it with the root with the shortest length.

You need to output the sentence after the replacement.

Example 1:

Input: dict = ["cat", "bat", "rat"]
sentence = "the cattle was rattled by the battery"
Output: "the cat was rat by the bat"

Note:

  1. The input will only have lower-case letters.
  2. 1 <= dict words number <= 1000
  3. 1 <= sentence words number <= 1000
  4. 1 <= root length <= 100
  5. 1 <= sentence words length <= 1000

Solution 1: HashTable

Time complexity: O(sum(w^2))

Space complexity: O(sum(l))

Solution2: Trie

Time complexity: O(sum(l) + n)

Space complexity: O(sum(l) * 26)

 

 

花花酱 LeetCode 935. Knight Dialer

Problem

https://leetcode.com/problems/knight-dialer/description/

A chess knight can move as indicated in the chess diagram below:

 .           

 

This time, we place our chess knight on any numbered key of a phone pad (indicated above), and the knight makes N-1 hops.  Each hop must be from one key to another numbered key.

Each time it lands on a key (including the initial placement of the knight), it presses the number of that key, pressing N digits total.

How many distinct numbers can you dial in this manner?

Since the answer may be large, output the answer modulo 10^9 + 7.

Example 1:

Input: 1
Output: 10

Example 2:

Input: 2
Output: 20

Example 3:

Input: 3
Output: 46

Note:

  • 1 <= N <= 5000

Solution: DP

Similar to 花花酱 688. Knight Probability in Chessboard

We can define dp[k][i][j] as # of ways to dial and the last key is (j, i) after k steps

Note: dp[*][3][0], dp[*][3][2] are always zero for all the steps.

Init: dp[0][i][j] = 1

Transition: dp[k][i][j] = sum(dp[k – 1][i + dy][j + dx]) 8 ways of move from last step.

ans = sum(dp[k])

Time complexity: O(kmn) or O(k * 12 * 8) = O(k)

Space complexity: O(kmn) -> O(mn) or O(12*8) = O(1)

V2

define dp[k][i] as # of ways to dial and the last key is i after k steps

init: dp[0][0:10] = 1

transition: dp[k][i] = sum(dp[k-1][j]) that j can move to i

ans: sum(dp[k])

Time complexity: O(k * 10) = O(k)

Space complexity: O(k * 10) -> O(10) = O(1)

花花酱 LeetCode 933. Number of Recent Calls

Problem

Write a class RecentCounter to count recent requests.

It has only one method: ping(int t), where t represents some time in milliseconds.

Return the number of pings that have been made from 3000 milliseconds ago until now.

Any ping with time in [t - 3000, t] will count, including the current ping.

It is guaranteed that every call to ping uses a strictly larger value of t than before.

Example 1:

Input: inputs = ["RecentCounter","ping","ping","ping","ping"], inputs = [[],[1],[100],[3001],[3002]]
Output: [null,1,2,3,3]

Note:

  1. Each test case will have at most 10000 calls to ping.
  2. Each test case will call ping with strictly increasing values of t.
  3. Each call to ping will have 1 <= t <= 10^9.

Solution: Queue

Use a FIFO queue to track all the previous pings that are within 3000 ms to current.

Time complexity: Avg O(1), Total O(n)

Space complexity: O(n)

花花酱 LeetCode 934. Shortest Bridge

Problem

https://leetcode.com/problems/shortest-bridge/description/

In a given 2D binary array A, there are two islands.  (An island is a 4-directionally connected group of 1s not connected to any other 1s.)

Now, we may change 0s to 1s so as to connect the two islands together to form 1 island.

Return the smallest number of 0s that must be flipped.  (It is guaranteed that the answer is at least 1.)

Example 1:

Input: [[0,1],[1,0]]
Output: 1

Example 2:

Input: [[0,1,0],[0,0,0],[0,0,1]]
Output: 2

Example 3:

Input: [[1,1,1,1,1],[1,0,0,0,1],[1,0,1,0,1],[1,0,0,0,1],[1,1,1,1,1]]
Output: 1

Note:

  1. 1 <= A.length = A[0].length <= 100
  2. A[i][j] == 0 or A[i][j] == 1

Solution: DFS + BFS

  1. Use DFS to find one island and color all the nodes as 2 (BLUE).
  2. Use BFS to find the shortest path from any nodes with color 2 (BLUE) to any nodes with color 1 (RED).

Time complexity: O(mn)

Space complexity: O(mn)
