2337. Move Pieces to Obtain a String

You are given two strings start and target, both of length n. Each string consists only of the characters ‘L’, ‘R’, and ‘_’ where:

• The characters ‘L’ and ‘R’ represent pieces, where a piece ‘L’ can move to the left only if there is a blank space directly to its left, and a piece ‘R’ can move to the right only if there is a blank space directly to its right.
• The character ‘_’ represents a blank space that can be occupied by any of the ‘L’ or ‘R’ pieces.

Return true if it is possible to obtain the string target by moving the pieces of the string start any number of times. Otherwise, return false.

2336. Smallest Number in Infinite Set

You have a set which contains all positive integers [1, 2, 3, 4, 5, …].

Implement the SmallestInfiniteSet class:

• SmallestInfiniteSet() Initializes the SmallestInfiniteSet object to contain all positive integers.
• int popSmallest() Removes and returns the smallest integer contained in the infinite set.
• void addBack(int num) Adds a positive integer num back into the infinite set, if it is not already in the infinite set.

2335. Minimum Amount of Time to Fill Cups

You have a water dispenser that can dispense cold, warm, and hot water. Every second, you can either fill up 2 cups with different types of water, or 1 cup of any type of water.

You are given a 0-indexed integer array amount of length 3 where amount[0], amount[1], and amount[2] denote the number of cold, warm, and hot water cups you need to fill respectively. Return the minimum number of seconds needed to fill up all the cups.

2330. Valid Palindrome IV

You are given a 0-indexed string s consisting of only lowercase English letters. In one operation, you can change any character of s to any other character.

Return true if you can make s a palindrome after performing exactly one or two operations, or return false otherwise.

2334. Subarray With Elements Greater Than Varying Threshold

You are given an integer array nums and an integer threshold.

Find any subarray of nums of length k such that every element in the subarray is greater than threshold / k.

Return the size of any such subarray. If there is no such subarray, return -1.

A subarray is a contiguous non-empty sequence of elements within an array.

2333. Minimum Sum of Squared Difference

You are given two positive 0-indexed integer arrays nums1 and nums2, both of length n.

The sum of squared difference of arrays nums1 and nums2 is defined as the sum of (nums1[i] - nums2[i])2 for each 0 <= i < n.

You are also given two positive integers k1 and k2. You can modify any of the elements of nums1 by +1 or -1 at most k1 times. Similarly, you can modify any of the elements of nums2 by +1 or -1 at most k2 times.

Return the minimum sum of squared difference after modifying array nums1 at most k1 times and modifying array nums2 at most k2 times.

Note: You are allowed to modify the array elements to become negative integers.
