[LeetCode] Insert into a Sorted Circular Linked List

708. Insert into a Sorted Circular Linked List

Given a node from a Circular Linked List which is sorted in ascending order, write a function to insert a value insertVal into the list such that it remains a sorted circular list. The given node can be a reference to any single node in the list, and may not be necessarily the smallest value in the circular list.

If there are multiple suitable places for insertion, you may choose any place to insert the new value. After the insertion, the circular list should remain sorted.

If the list is empty (i.e., given node is null), you should create a new single circular list and return the reference to that single node. Otherwise, you should return the original given node.

[LeetCode] Maximum Non Negative Product in a Matrix

1594. Maximum Non Negative Product in a Matrix

You are given a rows x cols matrix grid. Initially, you are located at the top-left corner (0, 0), and in each step, you can only move right or down in the matrix.

Among all possible paths starting from the top-left corner (0, 0) and ending in the bottom-right corner (rows - 1, cols - 1), find the path with the maximum non-negative product. The product of a path is the product of all integers in the grid cells visited along the path.

Return the maximum non-negative product modulo 109 + 7. If the maximum product is negative return -1.

Notice that the modulo is performed after getting the maximum product.

[LeetCode] Valid Parenthesis String

678. Valid Parenthesis String

Given a string containing only three types of characters: ‘(‘, ‘)’ and ‘*’, write a function to check whether this string is valid. We define the validity of a string by these rules:

  1. Any left parenthesis ‘(‘ must have a corresponding right parenthesis ‘)’.
  2. Any right parenthesis ‘)’ must have a corresponding left parenthesis ‘(‘.
  3. Left parenthesis ‘(‘ must go before the corresponding right parenthesis ‘)’.
  4. ‘*’ could be treated as a single right parenthesis ‘)’ or a single left parenthesis ‘(‘ or an empty string.
  5. An empty string is also valid.

[LeetCode] Design Twitter

355. Design Twitter

Design a simplified version of Twitter where users can post tweets, follow/unfollow another user and is able to see the 10 most recent tweets in the user’s news feed. Your design should support the following methods:

  1. postTweet(userId, tweetId): Compose a new tweet.
  2. getNewsFeed(userId): Retrieve the 10 most recent tweet ids in the user’s news feed. Each item in the news feed must be posted by users who the user followed or by the user herself. Tweets must be ordered from most recent to least recent.
  3. follow(followerId, followeeId): Follower follows a followee.
  4. unfollow(followerId, followeeId): Follower unfollows a followee.

[LeetCode] Smallest Range II

910. Smallest Range II

Given an array A of integers, for each integer A[i] we need to choose either x = -K or x = K, and add x to A[i] (only once).

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.

[LeetCode] Invalid Transactions

1169. Invalid Transactions

A transaction is possibly invalid if:

  • the amount exceeds $1000, or;
  • if it occurs within (and including) 60 minutes of another transaction with the same name in a different city.

You are given an array of strings transaction where transactions[i] consists of comma-separated values representing the name, time (in minutes), amount, and city of the transaction.

Return a list of transactions that are possibly invalid. You may return the answer in any order.

Constraints:

  • transactions.length <= 1000
  • Each transactions[i] takes the form “{name},{time},{amount},{city}”
  • Each {name} and {city} consist of lowercase English letters, and have lengths between 1 and 10.
  • Each {time} consist of digits, and represent an integer between 0 and 1000.
  • Each {amount} consist of digits, and represent an integer between 0 and 2000.

[LeetCode] Water and Jug Problem

365. Water and Jug Problem

You are given two jugs with capacities x and y litres. There is an infinite amount of water supply available. You need to determine whether it is possible to measure exactly z litres using these two jugs.

If z liters of water is measurable, you must have z liters of water contained within one or both buckets by the end.

Operations allowed:

  • Fill any of the jugs completely with water.
  • Empty any of the jugs.
  • Pour water from one jug into another till the other jug is completely full or the first jug itself is empty.
