花花酱 LeetCode 2643. Row With Maximum Ones

By zxi on April 28, 2023

Given a m x n binary matrix mat, find the 0-indexed position of the row that contains the maximum count of ones, and the number of ones in that row.

In case there are multiple rows that have the maximum count of ones, the row with the smallest row number should be selected.

Return an array containing the index of the row, and the number of ones in it.

Example 1:

Input: mat = [[0,1],[1,0]]
Output: [0,1]
Explanation: Both rows have the same number of 1's. So we return the index of the smaller row, 0, and the maximum count of ones (1). So, the answer is [0,1].

Example 2:

Input: mat = [[0,0,0],[0,1,1]]
Output: [1,2]
Explanation: The row indexed 1 has the maximum count of ones (2). So we return its index, 1, and the count. So, the answer is [1,2].

Example 3:

Input: mat = [[0,0],[1,1],[0,0]]
Output: [1,2]
Explanation: The row indexed 1 has the maximum count of ones (2). So the answer is [1,2].

Constraints:

m == mat.length
n == mat[i].length
1 <= m, n <= 100
mat[i][j] is either 0 or 1.

Solution: Counting

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

C++

class Solution {

public:

vector<int> rowAndMaximumOnes(vector<vector<int>>& mat) {

vector<int> ans(2);

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

int ones = accumulate(begin(mat[i]), end(mat[i]), 0);

if (ones > ans[1]) {

ans[0] = i;

ans[1] = ones;

}

return ans;

}

};

花花酱 LeetCode 2652. Sum Multiples

By zxi on April 27, 2023

Given a positive integer n, find the sum of all integers in the range [1, n] inclusive that are divisible by 3, 5, or 7.

Return an integer denoting the sum of all numbers in the given range satisfying the constraint.

Example 1:

Input: n = 7
Output: 21
Explanation: Numbers in the range [1, 7] that are divisible by 3, 5, or 7 are 3, 5, 6, 7. The sum of these numbers is 21.

Example 2:

Input: n = 10
Output: 40
Explanation: Numbers in the range [1, 10] that are divisible by 3, 5, or 7 are 3, 5, 6, 7, 9, 10. The sum of these numbers is 40.

Example 3:

Input: n = 9
Output: 30
Explanation: Numbers in the range [1, 9] that are divisible by 3, 5, or 7 are 3, 5, 6, 7, 9. The sum of these numbers is 30.

Constraints:

1 <= n <= 10³

Solution: Mod

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

C++

// Author: Huahua

class Solution {

public:

int sumOfMultiples(int n) {

int ans = 0;

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

if (i % 3 == 0 || i % 5 == 0 || i % 7 == 0)

ans += i;

}

return ans;

}

花花酱 LeetCode 2586. Count the Number of Vowel Strings in Range

By zxi on March 11, 2023

You are given a 0-indexed array of string words and two integers left and right.

A string is called a vowel string if it starts with a vowel character and ends with a vowel character where vowel characters are 'a', 'e', 'i', 'o', and 'u'.

Return the number of vowel strings words[i] where i belongs to the inclusive range [left, right].

Example 1:

Input: words = ["are","amy","u"], left = 0, right = 2
Output: 2
Explanation: 
- "are" is a vowel string because it starts with 'a' and ends with 'e'.
- "amy" is not a vowel string because it does not end with a vowel.
- "u" is a vowel string because it starts with 'u' and ends with 'u'.
The number of vowel strings in the mentioned range is 2.

Example 2:

Input: words = ["hey","aeo","mu","ooo","artro"], left = 1, right = 4
Output: 3
Explanation: 
- "aeo" is a vowel string because it starts with 'a' and ends with 'o'.
- "mu" is not a vowel string because it does not start with a vowel.
- "ooo" is a vowel string because it starts with 'o' and ends with 'o'.
- "artro" is a vowel string because it starts with 'a' and ends with 'o'.
The number of vowel strings in the mentioned range is 3.

Constraints:

1 <= words.length <= 1000
1 <= words[i].length <= 10
words[i] consists of only lowercase English letters.
0 <= left <= right < words.length

Solution:

Iterator overs words, from left to right. Check the first and last element of the string.

Time complexity: O(|right – left + 1|)
Space complexity: O(1)

C++

// Author: Huahua

class Solution {

public:

int vowelStrings(vector<string>& words, int left, int right) {

auto isVowel = [](char c) {

return c == 'a' || c == 'e' || c == 'i' || c == 'o' || c == 'u';

};

return count_if(begin(words) + left, begin(words) + right + 1, [&](const string& w) {

return isVowel(w.front()) && isVowel(w.back());

});

}

};

花花酱 LeetCode 2582. Pass the Pillow

By zxi on March 5, 2023

There are n people standing in a line labeled from 1 to n. The first person in the line is holding a pillow initially. Every second, the person holding the pillow passes it to the next person standing in the line. Once the pillow reaches the end of the line, the direction changes, and people continue passing the pillow in the opposite direction.

For example, once the pillow reaches the n^th person they pass it to the n - 1^th person, then to the n - 2^th person and so on.

Given the two positive integers n and time, return the index of the person holding the pillow after time seconds.

Example 1:

Input: n = 4, time = 5
Output: 2
Explanation: People pass the pillow in the following way: 1 -> 2 -> 3 -> 4 -> 3 -> 2.
Afer five seconds, the pillow is given to the 2^nd person.

Example 2:

Input: n = 3, time = 2
Output: 3
Explanation: People pass the pillow in the following way: 1 -> 2 -> 3.
Afer two seconds, the pillow is given to the 3^r^d person.

Constraints:

2 <= n <= 1000
1 <= time <= 1000

Solution: Math

It takes n – 1 seconds from 1 to n and takes another n – 1 seconds back from n to 1.
So one around takes 2 * (n – 1) seconds. We can mod time with 2 * (n – 1).

After that if time < n – 1 answer is time + 1, otherwise answer is n – (time – (n – 1))

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

C++

// Author: Huahua

class Solution {

public:

int passThePillow(int n, int time) {

time %= (2 * (n - 1));

return time > n - 1 ? n - (time - (n - 1)) : time + 1;

}

};

花花酱 LeetCode 2574. Left and Right Sum Differences

By zxi on February 25, 2023

Given a 0-indexed integer array nums, find a 0-indexed integer array answer where:

answer.length == nums.length.
answer[i] = |leftSum[i] - rightSum[i]|.

Where:

leftSum[i] is the sum of elements to the left of the index i in the array nums. If there is no such element, leftSum[i] = 0.
rightSum[i] is the sum of elements to the right of the index i in the array nums. If there is no such element, rightSum[i] = 0.

Return the array answer.

Example 1:

Input: nums = [10,4,8,3]
Output: [15,1,11,22]
Explanation: The array leftSum is [0,10,14,22] and the array rightSum is [15,11,3,0].
The array answer is [|0 - 15|,|10 - 11|,|14 - 3|,|22 - 0|] = [15,1,11,22].

Example 2:

Input: nums = [1]
Output: [0]
Explanation: The array leftSum is [0] and the array rightSum is [0].
The array answer is [|0 - 0|] = [0].

Constraints:

1 <= nums.length <= 1000
1 <= nums[i] <= 10⁵

Solution: O(1) Space

Pre-compute the sum of all numbers as right sum, and accumulate left sum on the fly then we can achieve O(1) space.

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

C++

// Author: Huahua

class Solution {

public:

vector<int> leftRigthDifference(vector<int>& nums) {

int right = accumulate(begin(nums), end(nums), 0);

vector<int> ans;

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

right -= nums[i];

ans.push_back(abs(left - right));

left += nums[i];

}

return ans;

}

};
