花花酱 LeetCode 1557. Minimum Number of Vertices to Reach All Nodes

By zxi on August 22, 2020

Given a directed acyclic graph, with n vertices numbered from 0 to n-1, and an array edges where edges[i] = [fromi, toi] represents a directed edge from node fromi to node toi.

Find the smallest set of vertices from which all nodes in the graph are reachable. It’s guaranteed that a unique solution exists.

Notice that you can return the vertices in any order.

Example 1:

Input: n = 6, edges = [[0,1],[0,2],[2,5],[3,4],[4,2]]
Output: [0,3]
Explanation: It's not possible to reach all the nodes from a single vertex. From 0 we can reach [0,1,2,5]. From 3 we can reach [3,4,2,5]. So we output [0,3].

Example 2:

Input: n = 5, edges = [[0,1],[2,1],[3,1],[1,4],[2,4]]
Output: [0,2,3]
Explanation: Notice that vertices 0, 3 and 2 are not reachable from any other node, so we must include them. Also any of these vertices can reach nodes 1 and 4.

Constraints:

  • 2 <= n <= 10^5
  • 1 <= edges.length <= min(10^5, n * (n - 1) / 2)
  • edges[i].length == 2
  • 0 <= fromi, toi < n
  • All pairs (fromi, toi) are distinct.

Solution: In degree

Nodes with 0 in degree will be the answer.
Time complexity: O(E+V)
Space complexity: O(V)

花花酱 LeetCode 1361. Validate Binary Tree Nodes

By zxi on February 23, 2020

You have n binary tree nodes numbered from 0 to n - 1 where node i has two children leftChild[i] and rightChild[i], return true if and only if all the given nodes form exactly one valid binary tree.

If node i has no left child then leftChild[i] will equal -1, similarly for the right child.

Note that the nodes have no values and that we only use the node numbers in this problem.

Example 1:

Input: n = 4, leftChild = [1,-1,3,-1], rightChild = [2,-1,-1,-1]
Output: true

Example 2:

Input: n = 4, leftChild = [1,-1,3,-1], rightChild = [2,3,-1,-1]
Output: false

Example 3:

Input: n = 2, leftChild = [1,0], rightChild = [-1,-1]
Output: false

Example 4:

Input: n = 6, leftChild = [1,-1,-1,4,-1,-1], rightChild = [2,-1,-1,5,-1,-1]
Output: false

Constraints:

  • 1 <= n <= 10^4
  • leftChild.length == rightChild.length == n
  • -1 <= leftChild[i], rightChild[i] <= n - 1

Solution: Count in-degrees for each node

in degree must <= 1 and there must be exact one node that has 0 in-degree.

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