873. Length of Longest Fibonacci Subsequence

A sequence x1, x2, …, xn is Fibonacci-like if:

• n >= 3
• xi + xi+1 == xi+2 for all i + 2 <= n

Given a strictly increasing array arr of positive integers forming a sequence, return the length of the longest Fibonacci-like subsequence of arr. If one does not exist, return 0.

A subsequence is derived from another sequence arr by deleting any number of elements (including none) from arr, without changing the order of the remaining elements. For example, [3, 5, 8] is a subsequence of [3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8].

764. Largest Plus Sign

You are given an integer n. You have an n x n binary grid grid with all values initially 1’s except for some indices given in the array mines. The ith element of the array mines is defined as mines[i] = [xi, yi] where grid[xi][yi] == 0.

Return the order of the largest axis-aligned plus sign of 1’s contained in grid. If there is none, return 0.

An axis-aligned plus sign of 1’s of order k has some center grid[r][c] == 1 along with four arms of length k - 1 going up, down, left, and right, and made of 1’s. Note that there could be 0’s or 1’s beyond the arms of the plus sign, only the relevant area of the plus sign is checked for 1’s.

854. K-Similar Strings

Strings s1 and s2 are k-similar (for some non-negative integer k) if we can swap the positions of two letters in s1 exactly k times so that the resulting string equals s2.

Given two anagrams s1 and s2, return the smallest k for which s1 and s2 are k-similar.

838. Push Dominoes

There are n dominoes in a line, and we place each domino vertically upright. In the beginning, we simultaneously push some of the dominoes either to the left or to the right.

After each second, each domino that is falling to the left pushes the adjacent domino on the left. Similarly, the dominoes falling to the right push their adjacent dominoes standing on the right.

When a vertical domino has dominoes falling on it from both sides, it stays still due to the balance of the forces.

For the purposes of this question, we will consider that a falling domino expends no additional force to a falling or already fallen domino.

You are given a string dominoes representing the initial state where:

• dominoes[i] = ‘L’, if the ith domino has been pushed to the left,
• dominoes[i] = ‘R’, if the ith domino has been pushed to the right, and
• dominoes[i] = ‘.’, if the ith domino has not been pushed.

Return a string representing the final state.

816. Ambiguous Coordinates

We had some 2-dimensional coordinates, like “(1, 3)” or “(2, 0.5)”. Then, we removed all commas, decimal points, and spaces and ended up with the string s.

• For example, “(1, 3)” becomes s = “(13)” and “(2, 0.5)” becomes s = “(205)”.
  Return a list of strings representing all possibilities for what our original coordinates could have been.

Our original representation never had extraneous zeroes, so we never started with numbers like “00”, “0.0”, “0.00”, “1.0”, “001”, “00.01”, or any other number that can be represented with fewer digits. Also, a decimal point within a number never occurs without at least one digit occurring before it, so we never started with numbers like “.1”.

The final answer list can be returned in any order. All coordinates in the final answer have exactly one space between them (occurring after the comma.)

813. Largest Sum of Averages

You are given an integer array nums and an integer k. You can partition the array into at most k non-empty adjacent subarrays. The score of a partition is the sum of the averages of each subarray.

Note that the partition must use every integer in nums, and that the score is not necessarily an integer.

Return the maximum score you can achieve of all the possible partitions. Answers within 10-6 of the actual answer will be accepted.

789. Escape The Ghosts

You are playing a simplified PAC-MAN game on an infinite 2-D grid. You start at the point [0, 0], and you are given a destination point target = [xtarget, ytarget] that you are trying to get to. There are several ghosts on the map with their starting positions given as a 2D array ghosts, where ghosts[i] = [xi, yi] represents the starting position of the ith ghost. All inputs are integral coordinates.

Each turn, you and all the ghosts may independently choose to either move 1 unit in any of the four cardinal directions: north, east, south, or west, or stay still. All actions happen simultaneously.

You escape if and only if you can reach the target before any ghost reaches you. If you reach any square (including the target) at the same time as a ghost, it does not count as an escape.

Return true if it is possible to escape regardless of how the ghosts move, otherwise return false.

765. Couples Holding Hands

There are n couples sitting in 2n seats arranged in a row and want to hold hands.

The people and seats are represented by an integer array row where row[i] is the ID of the person sitting in the ith seat. The couples are numbered in order, the first couple being (0, 1), the second couple being (2, 3), and so on with the last couple being (2n - 2, 2n - 1).

Return the minimum number of swaps so that every couple is sitting side by side. A swap consists of choosing any two people, then they stand up and switch seats.

747. Largest Number At Least Twice of Others

You are given an integer array nums where the largest integer is unique.

Determine whether the largest element in the array is at least twice as much as every other number in the array. If it is, return the index of the largest element, or return -1 otherwise.

667. Beautiful Arrangement II

Given two integers n and k, construct a list answer that contains n different positive integers ranging from 1 to n and obeys the following requirement:

• Suppose this list is answer = [a1, a2, a3, … , an], then the list [|a1 - a2|, |a2 - a3|, |a3 - a4|, … , |an-1 - an|] has exactly k distinct integers.

Return the list answer. If there multiple valid answers, return any of them.
