Problem Description: Given a 2D matrix, the matrix has only 0(representing water) and 1(representing land) as entries. An island in the matrix is formed by grouping all the adjacent 1’s connected 4-directionally(horizontal and vertical). Find the maximum area of the island in the matrix. Assume that all four edges of …
An element search in sorted rotated array can be found using binary search in O(logn) time. The objective of this post is to find a given element in a sorted rotated array in O(logn) time. Some example of a sorted rotated array is given. Example Input : arr[] = {7,8,9,10,1,2,3,5,6}; …
A m x n 2D grid is given and you are standing at the topmost and leftmost cell in the grid. i.e. the cell located at (1,1). Find the number of unique paths that can be taken to reach a cell located at (m,n) from the cell located at (1,1) …
In merge two sorted linked lists we have given head pointer of two linked lists, merge them such that a single linked list is obtained which has nodes with values in sorted order. return the head pointer of the merged linked list. Note: merge the linked list in-place without using …
In repeated substring patterns we have given a string check if it can be constructed by taking a substring of itself and appending multiple copies of the substring together. Example Input 1: str = “abcabcabc” Output: True Explanation: “abcabcabc” can be formed by repeatedly appending “abc” to an empty string. …
In Find Median from the data Stream problem, we have given that integers are being read from a data stream. Find the median of all the elements read so far starting from the first integer till the last integer. Example Input 1: stream[ ] = {3,10,5,20,7,6} Output : 3 6.5 …
In the Longest Common Prefix using Sorting problem we have given a set of strings, find the longest common prefix. i.e. find the prefix part that is common to all the strings. Example Input1: {“tutorialcup”, “tutorial”, “tussle”, “tumble”} Output: “tu” Input2: {“baggage”, “banana”, “batsmen”} Output: “ba” Input3: {“abcd”} Output: “abcd” …
The House Robber Problem states that, in a neighborhood in a city, there is a single row of n houses. A thief is planning to carry a heist in this neighborhood. He knows how much gold is concealed in each of the houses. However, in order to avoid triggering an …
In the Maximum Subarray problem we have given an integer array nums, find the contiguous sub array which has the largest sum and print the maximum sum subarray value. Example Input nums[] = {-2, 1, -3, 4, -1, 2, 1, -5, 4} Output 6 Algorithm The goal is to find …
In Sliding Window Maximum problem we have given an array nums, for each contiguous window of size k, find the maximum element in the window. Example Input nums[] = {1,3,-1,-3,5,3,6,7} k = 3 Output {3,3,5,5,6,7} Explanation Naive Approach for Sliding Window Maximum For every contiguous window of size k, traverse …
