花花酱 LeetCode 95. Unique Binary Search Trees II

Problem

https://leetcode.com/problems/unique-binary-search-trees-ii/description/

Given an integer n, generate all structurally unique BST’s (binary search trees) that store values 1…n.

For example,
Given n = 3, your program should return all 5 unique BST’s shown below.

 

Idea: Recursion

for i in 1..n: pick i as root,
left subtrees can be generated in the same way for n_l = 1 … i – 1,
right subtrees can be generated in the same way for n_r = i + 1, …, n
def gen(s, e):
return [tree(i, l, r) for l in gen(s, i – 1) for r in gen(i + 1, e) for i in range(s, e+1)

# of trees:

n = 0: 1
n = 1: 1
n = 2: 2
n = 3: 5
n = 4: 14
n = 5: 42
n = 6: 132

Trees(n) = Trees(0)*Trees(n-1) + Trees(1)*Trees(n-2) + … + Tress(n-1)*Trees(0)

Time complexity: O(3^n)

Space complexity: O(3^n)

花花酱 LeetCode 172. Factorial Trailing Zeroes

题目大意:求n!末尾0的个数。

Problem:

https://leetcode.com/problems/factorial-trailing-zeroes/description/

Given an integer n, return the number of trailing zeroes in n!.

Note: Your solution should be in logarithmic time complexity.

Idea:

All trailing zeros are come from even_num x 5, we have more even_num than 5, so only count factor 5.

4! = 1x2x3x4 = 24, we haven’t encountered any 5 yet, so we don’t have any trailing zero.

5! = 1x2x3x4x5 = 120, we have one trailing zero. either 2×5, or 4×5 can contribute to that zero.

9! = 362880, we only encountered 5 once, so 1 trailing zero as expected.

10! = 3628800, 2 trailing zeros, since we have two numbers that have factor 5, one is 5 and the other is 10 (2×5)

What about 100! then?

100/5 = 20, we have 20 numbers have factor 5: 5, 10, 15, 20, 25, …, 95, 100.

Is the number of trailing zero 20? No, it’s 24, why?

Within that 20 numbers, we have 4 of them: 25 (5×5), 50 (2x5x5), 75 (3x5x5), 100 (4x5x5) that have an extra factor of 5.

So, for a given number n, we are looking how many numbers <=n have factor 5, 5×5, 5x5x5, …

Summing those numbers up we got the answer.

e.g. 1000! has 249 trailing zeros:

1000/5 = 200

1000/25 = 40

1000/125 = 8

1000/625 = 1

200 + 40 + 8 + 1 = 249

alternatively, we can do the following

1000/5 = 200

200/5 = 40

40/5 = 8

8/5 = 1

1/5 = 0

200 + 40 + 8 + 1 + 0 = 249

Solution 1: Recursion

Time complexity: O(log5(n))

Space complexity: O(log5(n))

花花酱 LeetCode 696. Count Binary Substrings

题目大意:给你一个二进制的字符串,问有多少子串的0个数量等于1的数量。

Problem:

https://leetcode.com/problems/count-binary-substrings/description/

Give a string s, count the number of non-empty (contiguous) substrings that have the same number of 0’s and 1’s, and all the 0’s and all the 1’s in these substrings are grouped consecutively.

Substrings that occur multiple times are counted the number of times they occur.

Example 1:

Example 2:

Note:

 

  • s.length will be between 1 and 50,000.
  • s will only consist of “0” or “1” characters.

Solution 0: Search

Try all possible substrings and check whether it’s a valid one or not.

Time complexity O(2^n * n) TLE

Space complexity: O(n)

 

Solution 1: Running Length

For S = “000110”, there are two virtual blocks “[00011]0” and “000[110]” which contains consecutive 0s and 1s or (1s and 0s)

Keep tracking of the running length of 0, 1 for each block

“00011” => ‘0’: 3, ‘1’:2

ans += min(3, 2) => ans = 2 (“[0011]”, “0[01]1”)

“110” => ‘0’: 1, ‘1’: 2

ans += min(1, 2) => ans = 3 (“[0011]”, “0[01]1”, “1[10]”)

We can reuse part of the running length from last block.

Time complexity: O(n)

Space complexity: O(1)
