花花酱 LeetCode 640. Solve the Equation

By zxi on May 10, 2019

Solve a given equation and return the value of x in the form of string “x=#value”. The equation contains only ‘+’, ‘-‘ operation, the variable x and its coefficient.

If there is no solution for the equation, return “No solution”.

If there are infinite solutions for the equation, return “Infinite solutions”.

If there is exactly one solution for the equation, we ensure that the value of x is an integer.

Example 1:

Input: "x+5-3+x=6+x-2"
Output: "x=2"

Example 2:

Input: "x=x"
Output: "Infinite solutions"

Example 3:

Input: "2x=x"
Output: "x=0"

Example 4:

Input: "2x+3x-6x=x+2"
Output: "x=-1"

Example 5:

Input: "x=x+2"
Output: "No solution"

Solution: Parse the equation

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

花花酱 LeetCode 831. Masking Personal Information

By zxi on April 24, 2019

We are given a personal information string S, which may represent either an email address or a phone number.

We would like to mask this personal information according to the following rules:

1. Email address:

We define a name to be a string of length ≥ 2 consisting of only lowercase letters a-z or uppercase letters A-Z.

An email address starts with a name, followed by the symbol '@', followed by a name, followed by the dot '.' and followed by a name.

All email addresses are guaranteed to be valid and in the format of "name1@name2.name3".

To mask an email, all names must be converted to lowercase and all letters between the first and last letter of the first name must be replaced by 5 asterisks '*'.

2. Phone number:

A phone number is a string consisting of only the digits 0-9 or the characters from the set {'+', '-', '(', ')', ' '}. You may assume a phone number contains 10 to 13 digits.

The last 10 digits make up the local number, while the digits before those make up the country code. Note that the country code is optional. We want to expose only the last 4 digits and mask all other digits.

The local number should be formatted and masked as "***-***-1111", where 1 represents the exposed digits.

To mask a phone number with country code like "+111 111 111 1111", we write it in the form "+***-***-***-1111". The '+' sign and the first '-' sign before the local number should only exist if there is a country code. For example, a 12 digit phone number mask should start with "+**-".

Note that extraneous characters like "(", ")", " ", as well as extra dashes or plus signs not part of the above formatting scheme should be removed.

Return the correct “mask” of the information provided.

Example 1:

Input: "LeetCode@LeetCode.com"
Output: "l*****e@leetcode.com"
Explanation: All names are converted to lowercase, and the letters between the
             first and last letter of the first name is replaced by 5 asterisks.
             Therefore, "leetcode" -> "l*****e".

Example 2:

Input: "AB@qq.com"
Output: "a*****b@qq.com"
Explanation: There must be 5 asterisks between the first and last letter 
             of the first name "ab". Therefore, "ab" -> "a*****b".

Example 3:

Input: "1(234)567-890"
Output: "***-***-7890"
Explanation: 10 digits in the phone number, which means all digits make up the local number.

Example 4:

Input: "86-(10)12345678"
Output: "+**-***-***-5678"
Explanation: 12 digits, 2 digits for country code and 10 digits for local number.

Notes:

S.length <= 40.
Emails have length at least 8.
Phone numbers have length at least 10.

return email;

}

string maskPhone(const string& s) {

string d;

for (char c : s) if (isdigit(c)) d += c;

string phone;

if (d.length() > 10)

phone += "+" + string(d.length() - 10, '*') + "-";

phone += "***-***-" + d.substr(d.length() - 4);

return phone;

花花酱 LeetCode 38. Count and Say

By zxi on April 17, 2019

Problem

https://leetcode.com/problems/count-and-say/

The count-and-say sequence is the sequence of integers with the first five terms as following:

1.     1
2.     11
3.     21
4.     1211
5.     111221

1 is read off as "one 1" or 11.
11 is read off as "two 1s" or 21.
21 is read off as "one 2, then one 1" or 1211.

Given an integer n where 1 ≤ n ≤ 30, generate the n^th term of the count-and-say sequence.

Note: Each term of the sequence of integers will be represented as a string.

Example 1:

Input: 1
Output: "1"

Example 2:

Input: 4
Output: "1211"

Solution: Recursion + Simulation

C++

// Author: Huahua, 4 ms, 8.6 MB

class Solution {

public:

string countAndSay(int n) {

string ans = "1";

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

ans = say(ans);

return ans;

}

private:

string say(const string& n){

string ans;

int s = 0, l = n.length();

for (int e = 1; e <= l; ++e)

if (e == l || n[s] != n[e]) {

int count = e - s;

ans += '0' + count;

ans += n[s];

s = e;

}

return ans;

}

};

花花酱 LeetCode 394. Decode String

By zxi on April 10, 2019

Given an encoded string, return it’s decoded string.

The encoding rule is: k[encoded_string], where the encoded_string inside the square brackets is being repeated exactly k times. Note that k is guaranteed to be a positive integer.

You may assume that the input string is always valid; No extra white spaces, square brackets are well-formed, etc.

Furthermore, you may assume that the original data does not contain any digits and that digits are only for those repeat numbers, k. For example, there won’t be input like 3a or 2[4].

Examples:

s = "3[a]2[bc]", return "aaabcbc".
s = "3[a2[c]]", return "accaccacc".
s = "2[abc]3[cd]ef", return "abcabccdcdcdef".

Solution 1: Recursion

Time complexity: O(n^2)
Space complexity: O(n)

C++

// Author: Huahua, 4ms

class Solution {

public:

string decodeString(string s) {

if (s.empty()) return "";

string ans;

int i = 0;

int n = s.length();

int c = 0;

while (isdigit(s[i]) && i < n)

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

int j = i;

if (i < n && s[i] == '[') {

int open = 1;

while (++j < n && open) {

if (s[j] == '[') ++open;

if (s[j] == ']') --open;

}

} else {

while (j < n && isalpha(s[j])) ++j;

}

// "def2[ac]" => "def" + decodeString("2[ac]")

// | |

// i j

if (i == 0)

return s.substr(0, j) + decodeString(s.substr(j));

// "3[a2[c]]ef", ss = decodeString("a2[c]") = "acc"

// | |

// i j

string ss = decodeString(s.substr(i + 1, j - i - 2));

while (c--)

ans += ss;

// "3[a2[c]]ef", ans = "abcabcabc", ans += decodeString("ef")

ans += decodeString(s.substr(j));

return ans;

}

花花酱 LeetCode 125. Valid Palindrome

By zxi on April 10, 2019

Given a string, determine if it is a palindrome, considering only alphanumeric characters and ignoring cases.

Note: For the purpose of this problem, we define empty string as valid palindrome.

Example 1:

Input: "A man, a plan, a canal: Panama"
Output: true

Example 2:

Input: "race a car"
Output: false

Solution: Two pointers

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

C++

class Solution {

public:

bool isPalindrome(string s) {

int i = 0;

int j = s.length() - 1;

while (i < j) {

while (i < j && !isalnum(s[i])) ++i;

while (i < j && !isalnum(s[j])) --j;

if (tolower(s[i++]) != tolower(s[j--]))

return false;

}

return true;

}

};
