花花酱 LeetCode 923. 3Sum With Multiplicity

Problem

Given an integer array A, and an integer target, return the number of tuples i, j, k  such that i < j < k and A[i] + A[j] + A[k] == target.

As the answer can be very large, return it modulo 10^9 + 7.

Example 1:

Input: A = [1,1,2,2,3,3,4,4,5,5], target = 8
Output: 20
Explanation: 
Enumerating by the values (A[i], A[j], A[k]):
(1, 2, 5) occurs 8 times;
(1, 3, 4) occurs 8 times;
(2, 2, 4) occurs 2 times;
(2, 3, 3) occurs 2 times.

Example 2:

Input: A = [1,1,2,2,2,2], target = 5
Output: 12
Explanation: 
A[i] = 1, A[j] = A[k] = 2 occurs 12 times:
We choose one 1 from [1,1] in 2 ways,
and two 2s from [2,2,2,2] in 6 ways.

Note:

  1. 3 <= A.length <= 3000
  2. 0 <= A[i] <= 100
  3. 0 <= target <= 300

Solution: Math / Combination

Time complexity: O(n + |target|^2)

Space complexity: O(|target|)

花花酱 LeetCode 908. Smallest Range I

Problem

Given an array A of integers, for each integer A[i] we may choose any x with -K <= x <= K, and add xto A[i].

After this process, we have some array B.

Return the smallest possible difference between the maximum value of B and the minimum value of B.

Example 1:

Input: A = [1], K = 0
Output: 0
Explanation: B = [1]

Example 2:

Input: A = [0,10], K = 2
Output: 6
Explanation: B = [2,8]

Example 3:

Input: A = [1,3,6], K = 3
Output: 0
Explanation: B = [3,3,3] or B = [4,4,4]

Note:

  1. 1 <= A.length <= 10000
  2. 0 <= A[i] <= 10000
  3. 0 <= K <= 10000

花花酱 LeetCode 223. Rectangle Area

Problem

Find the total area covered by two rectilinear rectangles in a 2D plane.

Each rectangle is defined by its bottom left corner and top right corner as shown in the figure.

Example:

Input: A = -3, B = 0, C = 3, D = 4, E = 0, F = -1, G = 9, H = 2
Output: 45

Note:

Assume that the total area is never beyond the maximum possible value of int.

Solution:

area1 + area2 – overlapped area

花花酱 LeetCode 902. Numbers At Most N Given Digit Set

Problem

We have a sorted set of digits D, a non-empty subset of {'1','2','3','4','5','6','7','8','9'}.  (Note that '0' is not included.)

Now, we write numbers using these digits, using each digit as many times as we want.  For example, if D = {'1','3','5'}, we may write numbers such as '13', '551', '1351315'.

Return the number of positive integers that can be written (using the digits of D) that are less than or equal to N.

Example 1:

Input: D = ["1","3","5","7"], N = 100
Output: 20
Explanation: 
The 20 numbers that can be written are:
1, 3, 5, 7, 11, 13, 15, 17, 31, 33, 35, 37, 51, 53, 55, 57, 71, 73, 75, 77.

Example 2:

Input: D = ["1","4","9"], N = 1000000000
Output: 29523
Explanation: 
We can write 3 one digit numbers, 9 two digit numbers, 27 three digit numbers,
81 four digit numbers, 243 five digit numbers, 729 six digit numbers,
2187 seven digit numbers, 6561 eight digit numbers, and 19683 nine digit numbers.
In total, this is 29523 integers that can be written using the digits of D.

Note:

  1. D is a subset of digits '1'-'9' in sorted order.
  2. 1 <= N <= 10^9

 

Solution -1: DFS (TLE)

Time complexity: O(|D|^log10(N))

Space complexity: O(n)

Solution 1: Math

Time complexity: O(log10(N))

Space complexity: O(1)

Suppose N has n digits.

less than n digits

We can use all the numbers from D to construct numbers of with length 1,2,…,n-1 which are guaranteed to be less than N.

e.g. n = 52125, D = [1, 2, 5]

format X: e.g. 1, 2, 5 counts = |D| ^ 1

format XX: e.g. 11,12,15,21,22,25,51,52,55, counts = |D|^2

format XXX:  counts = |D|^3

format XXXX: counts = |D|^4

exact n digits

if all numbers in D  != N[0], counts = |d < N[0] | d in D| * |D|^(n-1), and we are done.

e.g. N = 34567, D = [1,2,8]

we can make:

  • X |3|^1
  • XX |3| ^ 2
  • XXX |3| ^ 3
  • XXXX |3| ^ 3
  • 1XXXX, |3|^4
  • 2XXXX, |3|^4
  • we can’t do 8XXXX

Total = (3^1 + 3^2 + 3^3 + 3^4) + 2 * |3|^ 4 = 120 + 162 = 282

N = 52525, D = [1,2,5]

However, if d = N[i], we need to check the next digit…

  • X |3|^1
  • XX |3| ^ 2
  • XXX |3| ^ 3
  • XXXX |3| ^ 3
  • 1XXXX, |3|^4
  • 2XXXX, |3|^4
  •  5????
    • 51XXX |3|^3
    • 52???
      • 521XX |3|^2
      • 522XX |3|^2
      • 525??
        • 5251X |3|^1
        • 5252?
          • 52521 |3|^0
          • 52522 |3|^0
          • 52525 +1

total = (120) + 2 * |3|^4 + |3|^3 + 2*|3|^2 + |3|^1 + 2 * |3|^0 + 1 = 120 + 213 = 333

if every digit of N is from D, then we also have a valid solution, thus need to + 1.

花花酱 LeetCode 9. Palindrome Number

Problem

Determine whether an integer is a palindrome. An integer is a palindrome when it reads the same backward as forward.

Example 1:

Input: 121
Output: true

Example 2:

Input: -121
Output: false
Explanation: From left to right, it reads -121. From right to left, it becomes 121-. Therefore it is not a palindrome.

Example 3:

Input: 10
Output: false
Explanation: Reads 01 from right to left. Therefore it is not a palindrome.

Follow up:

Could you solve it without converting the integer to a string?

Solution 1: Convert to string (cheating)

Time complexity: O(log10(x))

Space complexity: O(log10(x))

C++

Solution 2: Digit by Digit

Every time we compare the first and last digits of x, if they are not the same, return false. Otherwise, remove first and last digit and continue this process.

How can we achieve that via int math?

e.g. x = 9999, t = pow((10, int)log10(x)) = 1000

first digit: x / t, last digit: x % 10

then x = (x – x / t * t) / 10 removes first and last digits.

t /= 100 since we removed two digits.

x / t = 9 = 9 = x % 10, 9999 => 99

9 = 9, 99 => “”

Time complexity: O(log10(x) / 2)

Space complexity: O(1)
