花花酱 LeetCode 1865. Finding Pairs With a Certain Sum

By zxi on August 4, 2021

You are given two integer arrays nums1 and nums2. You are tasked to implement a data structure that supports queries of two types:

Add a positive integer to an element of a given index in the array nums2.
Count the number of pairs (i, j) such that nums1[i] + nums2[j] equals a given value (0 <= i < nums1.length and 0 <= j < nums2.length).

Implement the FindSumPairs class:

FindSumPairs(int[] nums1, int[] nums2) Initializes the FindSumPairs object with two integer arrays nums1 and nums2.
void add(int index, int val) Adds val to nums2[index], i.e., apply nums2[index] += val.
int count(int tot) Returns the number of pairs (i, j) such that nums1[i] + nums2[j] == tot.

Example 1:

Input
["FindSumPairs", "count", "add", "count", "count", "add", "add", "count"]
[[[1, 1, 2, 2, 2, 3], [1, 4, 5, 2, 5, 4]], [7], [3, 2], [8], [4], [0, 1], [1, 1], [7]]
Output
[null, 8, null, 2, 1, null, null, 11]
Explanation
FindSumPairs findSumPairs = new FindSumPairs([1, 1, 2, 2, 2, 3], [1, 4, 5, 2, 5, 4]);
findSumPairs.count(7); // return 8; pairs (2,2), (3,2), (4,2), (2,4), (3,4), (4,4) make 2 + 5 and pairs (5,1), (5,5) make 3 + 4
findSumPairs.add(3, 2); // now nums2 = [1,4,5,4,5,4] 
findSumPairs.count(8); // return 2; pairs (5,2), (5,4) make 3 + 5 
findSumPairs.count(4); // return 1; pair (5,0) makes 3 + 1 
findSumPairs.add(0, 1); // now nums2 = [2,4,5,4,5,4] 
findSumPairs.add(1, 1); // now nums2 = [2,5,5,4,5,4] 
findSumPairs.count(7); // return 11; pairs (2,1), (2,2), (2,4), (3,1), (3,2), (3,4), (4,1), (4,2), (4,4) make 2 + 5 and pairs (5,3), (5,5) make 3 + 4

Constraints:

1 <= nums1.length <= 1000
1 <= nums2.length <= 10⁵
1 <= nums1[i] <= 10⁹
1 <= nums2[i] <= 10⁵
0 <= index < nums2.length
1 <= val <= 10⁵
1 <= tot <= 10⁹
At most 1000 calls are made to add and count each.

Solution: HashTable

Note nums1 and nums2 are unbalanced. Brute force method will take O(m*n) = O(10³*10⁵) = O(10⁸) for each count call which will TLE. We could use a hashtable to store the counts of elements from nums2, and only iterate over nums1 to reduce the time complexity.

Time complexity:

init: O(m) + O(n)
add: O(1)
count: O(m)

Total time is less than O(10⁶)

Space complexity: O(m + n)

if (--freq_[nums2_[index]] == 0)

花花酱 LeetCode 1848. Minimum Distance to the Target Element

By zxi on May 2, 2021

Given an integer array nums (0-indexed) and two integers target and start, find an index i such that nums[i] == target and abs(i - start) is minimized. Note that abs(x) is the absolute value of x.

Return abs(i - start).

It is guaranteed that target exists in nums.

Example 1:

Input: nums = [1,2,3,4,5], target = 5, start = 3
Output: 1
Explanation: nums[4] = 5 is the only value equal to target, so the answer is abs(4 - 3) = 1.

Example 2:

Input: nums = [1], target = 1, start = 0
Output: 0
Explanation: nums[0] = 1 is the only value equal to target, so the answer is abs(0 - 0) = 1.

Example 3:

Input: nums = [1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1], target = 1, start = 0
Output: 0
Explanation: Every value of nums is 1, but nums[0] minimizes abs(i - start), which is abs(0 - 0) = 0.

Constraints:

1 <= nums.length <= 1000
1 <= nums[i] <= 10⁴
0 <= start < nums.length
target is in nums.

Solution: Brute Force

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

C++

// Author: Huahua

class Solution {

public:

int getMinDistance(vector<int>& nums, int target, int start) {

int ans = INT_MAX;

for (int i = 0; i < nums.size(); ++i)

if (nums[i] == target)

ans = min(ans, abs(i - start));

return ans;

}

};

花花酱 LeetCode 1846. Maximum Element After Decreasing and Rearranging

By zxi on May 1, 2021

You are given an array of positive integers arr. Perform some operations (possibly none) on arr so that it satisfies these conditions:

The value of the first element in arr must be 1.
The absolute difference between any 2 adjacent elements must be less than or equal to 1. In other words, abs(arr[i] - arr[i - 1]) <= 1 for each i where 1 <= i < arr.length (0-indexed). abs(x) is the absolute value of x.

There are 2 types of operations that you can perform any number of times:

Decrease the value of any element of arr to a smaller positive integer.
Rearrange the elements of arr to be in any order.

Return the maximum possible value of an element in arr after performing the operations to satisfy the conditions.

Example 1:

Input: arr = [2,2,1,2,1]
Output: 2
Explanation: 
We can satisfy the conditions by rearranging arr so it becomes [1,2,2,2,1].
The largest element in arr is 2.

Example 2:

Input: arr = [100,1,1000]
Output: 3
Explanation: 
One possible way to satisfy the conditions is by doing the following:
1. Rearrange arr so it becomes [1,100,1000].
2. Decrease the value of the second element to 2.
3. Decrease the value of the third element to 3.
Now arr = [1,2,3], which satisfies the conditions.
The largest element in arr is 3.

Example 3:

Input: arr = [1,2,3,4,5]
Output: 5
Explanation: The array already satisfies the conditions, and the largest element is 5.

Constraints:

1 <= arr.length <= 10⁵
1 <= arr[i] <= 10⁹

Solution: Sort

arr[0] = 1,
arr[i] = min(arr[i], arr[i – 1] + 1)

ans = arr[n – 1]

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

C++

// Author: Huahua

class Solution {

public:

int maximumElementAfterDecrementingAndRearranging(vector<int>& arr) {

const int n = arr.size();

sort(begin(arr), end(arr));

arr[0] = 1;

for (int i = 1; i < n; ++i)

arr[i] = min(arr[i], arr[i - 1] + 1);

return arr.back();

}

};

花花酱 LeetCode 1840. Maximum Building Height

By zxi on April 25, 2021

You want to build n new buildings in a city. The new buildings will be built in a line and are labeled from 1 to n.

However, there are city restrictions on the heights of the new buildings:

The height of each building must be a non-negative integer.
The height of the first building must be 0.
The height difference between any two adjacent buildings cannot exceed 1.

Additionally, there are city restrictions on the maximum height of specific buildings. These restrictions are given as a 2D integer array restrictions where restrictions[i] = [id_i, maxHeight_i] indicates that building id_i must have a height less than or equal to maxHeight_i.

It is guaranteed that each building will appear at most once in restrictions, and building 1 will not be in restrictions.

Return the maximum possible height of the tallest building.

Example 1:

Input: n = 5, restrictions = [[2,1],[4,1]]
Output: 2
Explanation: The green area in the image indicates the maximum allowed height for each building.
We can build the buildings with heights [0,1,2,1,2], and the tallest building has a height of 2.

Example 2:

Input: n = 6, restrictions = []
Output: 5
Explanation: The green area in the image indicates the maximum allowed height for each building.
We can build the buildings with heights [0,1,2,3,4,5], and the tallest building has a height of 5.

Example 3:

Input: n = 10, restrictions = [[5,3],[2,5],[7,4],[10,3]]

Output: 5

Explanation: The green area in the image indicates the maximum allowed height for each building.

We can build the buildings with heights [0,1,2,3,3,4,4,5,4,3], and the tallest building has a height of 5.

Constraints:

2 <= n <= 10⁹
0 <= restrictions.length <= min(n - 1, 10⁵)
2 <= id_i <= n
id_i is unique.
0 <= maxHeight_i <= 10⁹

Solution: Two Passes

Trim the max heights based on neighboring max heights.
Two passes: left to right, right to left.

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

C++

// Author: Huahua

class Solution {

public:

int maxBuilding(int n, vector<vector<int>>& rs) {

rs.push_back({1, 0});

sort(begin(rs), end(rs));

if (rs.back()[0] != n)

rs.push_back({n, n - 1});

const int m = rs.size();

for (int i = 1; i < m; ++i)

rs[i][1] = min(rs[i][1], rs[i - 1][1] + rs[i][0] - rs[i - 1][0]);

for (int i = m - 2; i >= 0; --i)

rs[i][1] = min(rs[i][1], rs[i + 1][1] - rs[i][0] + rs[i + 1][0]);

int ans = 0;

for (int i = 1; i < m; ++i) {

const int l = rs[i - 1][1];

const int r = rs[i][1];

ans = max(ans, max(l, r) + (rs[i][0] - rs[i - 1][0] - abs(l - r)) / 2);

}

return ans;

}

};

花花酱 LeetCode 1827. Minimum Operations to Make the Array Increasing

By zxi on April 17, 2021

You are given an integer array nums (0-indexed). In one operation, you can choose an element of the array and increment it by 1.

For example, if nums = [1,2,3], you can choose to increment nums[1] to make nums = [1,3,3].

Return the minimum number of operations needed to make nums strictly increasing.

An array nums is strictly increasing if nums[i] < nums[i+1] for all 0 <= i < nums.length - 1. An array of length 1 is trivially strictly increasing.

Example 1:

Input: nums = [1,1,1]
Output: 3
Explanation: You can do the following operations:
1) Increment nums[2], so nums becomes [1,1,2].
2) Increment nums[1], so nums becomes [1,2,2].
3) Increment nums[2], so nums becomes [1,2,3].

Example 2:

Input: nums = [1,5,2,4,1]
Output: 14

Example 3:

Input: nums = [8]
Output: 0

Constraints:

1 <= nums.length <= 5000
1 <= nums[i] <= 10⁴

Solution: Track Last

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

C++

class Solution {

public:

int minOperations(vector<int>& nums) {

int ans = 0, last = 0;

for (int x : nums)

if (x <= last)

ans += ++last - x;

else

last = x;

return ans;

}

};
