花花酱 LeetCode 1880. Check if Word Equals Summation of Two Words

By zxi on August 8, 2021

The letter value of a letter is its position in the alphabet starting from 0 (i.e. 'a' -> 0, 'b' -> 1, 'c' -> 2, etc.).

The numerical value of some string of lowercase English letters s is the concatenation of the letter values of each letter in s, which is then converted into an integer.

For example, if s = "acb", we concatenate each letter’s letter value, resulting in "021". After converting it, we get 21.

You are given three strings firstWord, secondWord, and targetWord, each consisting of lowercase English letters 'a' through 'j' inclusive.

Return true if the summation of the numerical values of firstWord and secondWord equals the numerical value of targetWord, or false otherwise.

Example 1:

Input: firstWord = "acb", secondWord = "cba", targetWord = "cdb"
Output: true
Explanation:
The numerical value of firstWord is "acb" -> "021" -> 21.
The numerical value of secondWord is "cba" -> "210" -> 210.
The numerical value of targetWord is "cdb" -> "231" -> 231.
We return true because 21 + 210 == 231.

Example 2:

Input: firstWord = "aaa", secondWord = "a", targetWord = "aab"
Output: false
Explanation: 
The numerical value of firstWord is "aaa" -> "000" -> 0.
The numerical value of secondWord is "a" -> "0" -> 0.
The numerical value of targetWord is "aab" -> "001" -> 1.
We return false because 0 + 0 != 1.

Example 3:

Input: firstWord = "aaa", secondWord = "a", targetWord = "aaaa"
Output: true
Explanation: 
The numerical value of firstWord is "aaa" -> "000" -> 0.
The numerical value of secondWord is "a" -> "0" -> 0.
The numerical value of targetWord is "aaaa" -> "0000" -> 0.
We return true because 0 + 0 == 0.

Constraints:

1 <= firstWord.length, secondWord.length, targetWord.length <= 8
firstWord, secondWord, and targetWord consist of lowercase English letters from 'a' to 'j' inclusive.

Solution: Brute Force

Tips: Write a reusable function to compute the score of a word.

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

C++

// Author: Huahua

class Solution {

public:

bool isSumEqual(string firstWord, string secondWord, string targetWord) {

auto score = [](string_view s) {

int ans = 0;

for (char c : s)

ans = ans * 10 + (c - 'a');

return ans;

};

return score(firstWord) + score(secondWord) == score(targetWord);

}

};

花花酱 LeetCode 1742. Maximum Number of Balls in a Box

By zxi on January 30, 2021

You are working in a ball factory where you have n balls numbered from lowLimit up to highLimit inclusive (i.e., n == highLimit - lowLimit + 1), and an infinite number of boxes numbered from 1 to infinity.

Your job at this factory is to put each ball in the box with a number equal to the sum of digits of the ball’s number. For example, the ball number 321 will be put in the box number 3 + 2 + 1 = 6 and the ball number 10 will be put in the box number 1 + 0 = 1.

Given two integers lowLimit and highLimit, return the number of balls in the box with the most balls.

Example 1:

Input: lowLimit = 1, highLimit = 10
Output: 2
Explanation:
Box Number:  1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 ...
Ball Count:  2 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 0  0  ...
Box 1 has the most number of balls with 2 balls.

Example 2:

Input: lowLimit = 5, highLimit = 15
Output: 2
Explanation:
Box Number:  1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 ...
Ball Count:  1 1 1 1 2 2 1 1 1 0  0  ...
Boxes 5 and 6 have the most number of balls with 2 balls in each.

Example 3:

Input: lowLimit = 19, highLimit = 28
Output: 2
Explanation:
Box Number:  1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 ...
Ball Count:  0 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 2  0  0  ...
Box 10 has the most number of balls with 2 balls.

Constraints:

1 <= lowLimit <= highLimit <= 10⁵

Solution: Hashtable and base-10

Max sum will be 9+9+9+9+9 = 45

Time complexity: O((hi-lo) * log(hi))
Space complexity: O(1)

C++

// Author: Huahua

class Solution {

public:

int countBalls(int lowLimit, int highLimit) {

vector<int> balls(46);

int ans = 0;

for (int i = lowLimit; i <= highLimit; ++i) {

int n = i;

int box = 0;

while (n) { box += n % 10; n /= 10; }

ans = max(ans, ++balls[box]);

}

return ans;

}

};

Python3

def countBalls(self, lowLimit: int, highLimit: int) -> int:

balls = defaultdict(int)

ans = 0

for x in range(lowLimit, highLimit + 1):

balls[s] += 1

ans = max(ans, balls[s])

return ans

花花酱 LeetCode 165. Compare Version Numbers

By zxi on March 9, 2020

Compare two version numbers version1 and version2.
If version1 > version2 return 1; if version1 < version2 return -1;otherwise return 0.

You may assume that the version strings are non-empty and contain only digits and the . character.

The . character does not represent a decimal point and is used to separate number sequences.

For instance, 2.5 is not “two and a half” or “half way to version three”, it is the fifth second-level revision of the second first-level revision.

You may assume the default revision number for each level of a version number to be 0. For example, version number 3.4 has a revision number of 3 and 4 for its first and second level revision number. Its third and fourth level revision number are both 0.

Example 1:

Input: version1 = "0.1", version2 = "1.1"
Output: -1

Example 2:

Input: version1 = "1.0.1", version2 = "1"
Output: 1

Example 3:

Input: version1 = "7.5.2.4", version2 = "7.5.3"
Output: -1

Example 4:

Input: version1 = "1.01", version2 = "1.001"
Output: 0
Explanation: Ignoring leading zeroes, both “01” and “001" represent the same number “1”

Example 5:

Input: version1 = "1.0", version2 = "1.0.0"
Output: 0
Explanation: The first version number does not have a third level revision number, which means its third level revision number is default to "0"

Note:

Version strings are composed of numeric strings separated by dots . and this numeric strings may have leading zeroes.
Version strings do not start or end with dots, and they will not be two consecutive dots.

Solution: String

Split the version string to a list of numbers, and compare two lists.

Time complexity: O(l1 + l2)
Space complexity: O(l1 + l2)

C++

// Author: Huahua

class Solution {

public:

int compareVersion(string version1, string version2) {

const auto& v1 = parseVersion(version1);

const auto& v2 = parseVersion(version2);

int i1 = 0, i2 = 0;

while (i1 < v1.size() || i2 < v2.size()) {

int n1 = i1 < v1.size() ? v1[i1++] : 0;

int n2 = i2 < v2.size() ? v2[i2++] : 0;

if (n1 < n2) return -1;

else if (n1 > n2) return 1;

}

return 0;

}

private:

vector<int> parseVersion(const string& version) {

vector<int> v;

int s = 0;

for (char c : version) {

if (c == '.') {

v.push_back(s);

s = 0;

} else {

s = s * 10 + (c - '0');

}

v.push_back(s);

return v;

}

};

花花酱 LeetCode 1271. Hexspeak

By zxi on November 30, 2019

A decimal number can be converted to its Hexspeak representation by first converting it to an uppercase hexadecimal string, then replacing all occurrences of the digit 0 with the letter O, and the digit 1 with the letter I. Such a representation is valid if and only if it consists only of the letters in the set {"A", "B", "C", "D", "E", "F", "I", "O"}.

Given a string num representing a decimal integer N, return the Hexspeak representation of N if it is valid, otherwise return "ERROR".

Example 1:

Input: num = "257"
Output: "IOI"
Explanation:  257 is 101 in hexadecimal.

Example 2:

Input: num = "3"
Output: "ERROR"

Constraints:

1 <= N <= 10^12
There are no leading zeros in the given string.
All answers must be in uppercase letters.

Solution: Simulation

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

C++

// Author: Huahua

class Solution {

public:

string toHexspeak(string num) {

long n = stol(num);

string ans;

while (n) {

int r = n % 16;

char c;

if (r == 0) c = 'O';

else if (r == 1) c = 'I';

else if (r >= 10 && r <= 15) c = 'A' + r - 10;

else return "ERROR";

ans += c;

n >>= 4;

}

reverse(begin(ans), end(ans));

return ans;

}

};
