花花酱 LeetCode 863. All Nodes Distance K in Binary Tree

Problem

题目大意:给你一棵二叉树(根结点root)和一个target节点。返回所有到target的距离为K的节点。

We are given a binary tree (with root node root), a target node, and an integer value K.

Return a list of the values of all nodes that have a distance K from the target node.  The answer can be returned in any order.

Example 1:

Input: root = [3,5,1,6,2,0,8,null,null,7,4], target = 5, K = 2
Output: [7,4,1]
Explanation: 
The nodes that are a distance 2 from the target node (with value 5)
have values 7, 4, and 1.

Note that the inputs "root" and "target" are actually TreeNodes.
The descriptions of the inputs above are just serializations of these objects.

Note:

  1. The given tree is non-empty.
  2. Each node in the tree has unique values 0 <= node.val <= 500.
  3. The target node is a node in the tree.
  4. 0 <= K <= 1000.

Solution1: DFS + BFS

Use DFS to build the graph, and use BFS to find all the nodes that are exact K steps from target.

Time complexity: O(n)

Space complexity: O(n)

C++

Array version

Solution 2: Recursion

Recursively compute the distance from root to target, and collect nodes accordingly.

Time complexity: O(n)

Space complexity: O(n)

 

花花酱 LeetCode 847. Shortest Path Visiting All Nodes

Problem

题目大意:求顶点覆盖的最短路径。

https://leetcode.com/problems/shortest-path-visiting-all-nodes/description/

An undirected, connected graph of N nodes (labeled 0, 1, 2, ..., N-1) is given as graph.

graph.length = N, and j != i is in the list graph[i] exactly once, if and only if nodes i and j are connected.

Return the length of the shortest path that visits every node. You may start and stop at any node, you may revisit nodes multiple times, and you may reuse edges.

Example 1:

Input: [[1,2,3],[0],[0],[0]]
Output: 4
Explanation: One possible path is [1,0,2,0,3]

Example 2:

Input: [[1],[0,2,4],[1,3,4],[2],[1,2]]
Output: 4
Explanation: One possible path is [0,1,4,2,3]

Solution: BFS

Time complexity: O(n*2^n)

Space complexity: O(n*2^n)

花花酱 LeetCode 815. Bus Routes

Problem

题目大意:给你每辆公交车的环形路线,问最少需要坐多少辆公交车才能送S到达T。

https://leetcode.com/problems/bus-routes/description/

We have a list of bus routes. Each routes[i] is a bus route that the i-th bus repeats forever. For example if routes[0] = [1, 5, 7], this means that the first bus (0-th indexed) travels in the sequence 1->5->7->1->5->7->1->… forever.

We start at bus stop S (initially not on a bus), and we want to go to bus stop T. Travelling by buses only, what is the least number of buses we must take to reach our destination? Return -1 if it is not possible.

Example:
Input: 
routes = [[1, 2, 7], [3, 6, 7]]
S = 1
T = 6
Output: 2
Explanation: 
The best strategy is take the first bus to the bus stop 7, then take the second bus to the bus stop 6.

Note:

  • 1 <= routes.length <= 500.
  • 1 <= routes[i].length <= 500.
  • 0 <= routes[i][j] < 10 ^ 6.

Solution: BFS

Time Complexity: O(m*n) m: # of buses, n: # of routes

Space complexity: O(m*n + m)

花花酱 LeetCode 433. Minimum Genetic Mutation

Problem

题目大意:给你一个基因库,问一个基因最少需要变异多少次才能变为另外一个基因。每次变异只能修改一个字符,并且必须在基因库里。

https://leetcode.com/problems/minimum-genetic-mutation/description/

A gene string can be represented by an 8-character long string, with choices from "A""C""G""T".

Suppose we need to investigate about a mutation (mutation from “start” to “end”), where ONE mutation is defined as ONE single character changed in the gene string.

For example, "AACCGGTT" -> "AACCGGTA" is 1 mutation.

Also, there is a given gene “bank”, which records all the valid gene mutations. A gene must be in the bank to make it a valid gene string.

Now, given 3 things – start, end, bank, your task is to determine what is the minimum number of mutations needed to mutate from “start” to “end”. If there is no such a mutation, return -1.

Note:

  1. Starting point is assumed to be valid, so it might not be included in the bank.
  2. If multiple mutations are needed, all mutations during in the sequence must be valid.
  3. You may assume start and end string is not the same.

Example 1:

start: "AACCGGTT"
end:   "AACCGGTA"
bank: ["AACCGGTA"]

return: 1

Example 2:

start: "AACCGGTT"
end:   "AAACGGTA"
bank: ["AACCGGTA", "AACCGCTA", "AAACGGTA"]

return: 2

Example 3:

start: "AAAAACCC"
end:   "AACCCCCC"
bank: ["AAAACCCC", "AAACCCCC", "AACCCCCC"]

return: 3

Solution: BFS Shortest Path

Time complexity: O(n^2)

Space complexity: O(n)

 

花花酱 LeetCode 787. Cheapest Flights Within K Stops

题目大意:给你一些城市之间的机票价格,问从src到dst的最少需要花多少钱,最多可以中转k个机场。

There are n cities connected by m flights. Each fight starts from city and arrives at v with a price w.

Now given all the cities and fights, together with starting city src and the destination dst, your task is to find the cheapest price from src to dst with up to k stops. If there is no such route, output -1.

Note:

  • The number of nodes n will be in range [1, 100], with nodes labeled from 0 to n - 1.
  • The size of flights will be in range [0, n * (n - 1) / 2].
  • The format of each flight will be (src, dst, price).
  • The price of each flight will be in the range [1, 10000].
  • k is in the range of [0, n - 1].
  • There will not be any duplicated flights or self cycles.
