1769. Minimum Number of Operations to Move All Balls to Each Box

You have n boxes. You are given a binary string boxes of length n, where boxes[i] is ‘0’ if the ith box is empty, and ‘1’ if it contains one ball.

In one operation, you can move one ball from a box to an adjacent box. Box i is adjacent to box j if abs(i - j) == 1. Note that after doing so, there may be more than one ball in some boxes.

Return an array answer of size n, where answer[i] is the minimum number of operations needed to move all the balls to the ith box.

Each answer[i] is calculated considering the initial state of the boxes.

1768. Merge Strings Alternately

You are given two strings word1 and word2. Merge the strings by adding letters in alternating order, starting with word1. If a string is longer than the other, append the additional letters onto the end of the merged string.

Return the merged string.

907. Sum of Subarray Minimums

Given an array of integers arr, find the sum of min(b), where b ranges over every (contiguous) subarray of arr. Since the answer may be large, return the answer modulo 10⁹ + 7.

161. One Edit Distance

Given two strings s and t, return true if they are both one edit distance apart, otherwise return false.

A string s is said to be one distance apart from a string t if you can:

• Insert exactly one character into s to get t.
• Delete exactly one character from s to get t.
• Replace exactly one character of s with a different character to get t.

625. Minimum Factorization

Given a positive integer a, find the smallest positive integer b whose multiplication of each digit equals to a.

If there is no answer or the answer is not fit in 32-bit signed integer, then return 0.

356. Line Reflection

Given n points on a 2D plane, find if there is such a line parallel to y-axis that reflect the given points symmetrically, in other words, answer whether or not if there exists a line that after reflecting all points over the given line the set of the original points is the same that the reflected ones.

Note that there can be repeated points.

686. Repeated String Match

Given two strings a and b, return the minimum number of times you should repeat string a so that string b is a substring of it. If it is impossible for b​​​​​​ to be a substring of a after repeating it, return -1.

Notice: string “abc” repeated 0 times is “”, repeated 1 time is “abc” and repeated 2 times is “abcabc”.

152. Maximum Product Subarray

Given an integer array nums, find the contiguous subarray within an array (containing at least one number) which has the largest product.

271. Encode and Decode Strings

Design an algorithm to encode a list of strings to a string. The encoded string is then sent over the network and is decoded back to the original list of strings.

Machine 1 (sender) has the function:

1 2 3 4

string encode(vector<string> strs) { // ... your code return encoded_string; }

Machine 2 (receiver) has the function:

1 2 3 4

vector<string> decode(string s) { //... your code return strs; }

So Machine 1 does:

string encoded_string = encode(strs);
and Machine 2 does:

vector<string> strs2 = decode(encoded_string);
strs2 in Machine 2 should be the same as strs in Machine 1.

Implement the encode and decode methods.
