LeetCode 1. Two Sum

Question

Given an array of integers nums and an integer target, return indices of the two numbers such that they add up to target.

You may assume that each input would have *exactly* one solution, and you may not use the same element twice.

You can return the answer in any order.

LeetCode 370. Range Addition

Question

You are given an integer length and an array updates where updates[i] = [startIdxi, endIdxi, inci].

You have an array arr of length length with all zeros, and you have some operation to apply on arr. In the ith operation, you should increment all the elements arr[startIdxi], arr[startIdxi + 1], ..., arr[endIdxi] by inci.

Return arr after applying all the updates.

LeetCode 41. First Missing Positive

Question

Given an unsorted integer array nums, return the smallest missing positive integer.

You must implement an algorithm that runs in O(n) time and uses constant extra space.

LeetCode 33. Search in Rotated Sorted Array

Question

There is an integer array nums sorted in ascending order (with distinct values).

Prior to being passed to your function, nums is possibly rotated at an unknown pivot index k (1 <= k < nums.length) such that the resulting array is [nums[k], nums[k+1], ..., nums[n-1], nums[0], nums[1], ..., nums[k-1]] (0-indexed). For example, [0,1,2,4,5,6,7] might be rotated at pivot index 3 and become [4,5,6,7,0,1,2].

Given the array nums after the possible rotation and an integer target, return the index of target if it is in nums, or -1 if it is not in nums.

You must write an algorithm with O(log n) runtime complexity.

LeetCode 35. Search Insert Position

Question

Given a sorted array of distinct integers and a target value, return the index if the target is found. If not, return the index where it would be if it were inserted in order.

You must write an algorithm with O(log n) runtime complexity.

LeetCode 528. Random Pick with Weight

Question

You are given a 0-indexed array of positive integers w where w[i] describes the weight of the ith index.

You need to implement the function pickIndex(), which randomly picks an index in the range [0, w.length - 1] (inclusive) and returns it. The probability of picking an index i is w[i] / sum(w).

  • For example, if w = [1, 3], the probability of picking index 0 is 1 / (1 + 3) = 0.25 (i.e., 25%), and the probability of picking index 1 is 3 / (1 + 3) = 0.75 (i.e., 75%).

LeetCode 1676. Lowest Common Ancestor of a Binary Tree IV

Question

Given the root of a binary tree and an array of TreeNode objects nodes, return the lowest common ancestor (LCA) of all the nodes in nodes. All the nodes will exist in the tree, and all values of the tree’s nodes are unique.

Extending the definition of LCA on Wikipedia: “The lowest common ancestor of n nodes p1, p2, …, pn in a binary tree T is the lowest node that has every pi as a descendant (where we allow a node to be a descendant of itself) for every valid i“. A descendant of a node x is a node y that is on the path from node x to some leaf node.

LeetCode 1650. Lowest Common Ancestor of a Binary Tree III

Question

Given two nodes of a binary tree p and q, return their lowest common ancestor (LCA).

Each node will have a reference to its parent node. The definition for Node is below:

1
2
3
4
5
6
class Node {
public int val;
public Node left;
public Node right;
public Node parent;
}

According to the definition of LCA on Wikipedia: “The lowest common ancestor of two nodes p and q in a tree T is the lowest node that has both p and q as descendants (where we allow a node to be a descendant of itself).”

LeetCode 160. Intersection of Two Linked Lists

Question

Given the heads of two singly linked-lists headA and headB, return the node at which the two lists intersect. If the two linked lists have no intersection at all, return null.

The test cases are generated such that there are no cycles anywhere in the entire linked structure.

Note that the linked lists must retain their original structure after the function returns.
