10. Find the Town Judge
In a town, there are
N
people labelled from 1
to N
. There is a rumor that one of these people is secretly the town judge.
If the town judge exists, then:
- The town judge trusts nobody.
- Everybody (except for the town judge) trusts the town judge.
- There is exactly one person that satisfies properties 1 and 2.
You are given
trust
, an array of pairs trust[i] = [a, b]
representing that the person labelled a
trusts the person labelled b
.
If the town judge exists and can be identified, return the label of the town judge. Otherwise, return
-1
.
Example 1:
Input: N = 2, trust = [[1,2]]
Output: 2
Example 2:
Input: N = 3, trust = [[1,3],[2,3]]
Output: 3
Example 3:
Input: N = 3, trust = [[1,3],[2,3],[3,1]]
Output: -1
Example 4:
Input: N = 3, trust = [[1,2],[2,3]]
Output: -1
Example 5:
Input: N = 4, trust = [[1,3],[1,4],[2,3],[2,4],[4,3]]
Output: 3
Note:
1 <= N <= 1000
trust.length <= 10000
trust[i]
are all differenttrust[i][0] != trust[i][1]
1 <= trust[i][0], trust[i][1] <=N

Solution in C++:
class Solution {
public:
int findJudge(int N, vector<vector<int>>& trust) {
vector<vector<int>> knows(N + 1, vector<int>(N + 1));
for (auto &t : trust) knows[t[0]][t[1]] = 1;
return findCelebrity(N, knows);
}
int findCelebrity(int n, vector<vector<int>>& knows, int i = 1) {
for (auto j = i + 1; j <= n; ++j) if (knows[i][j]) i = j;
for (auto j = 1; j < i; ++j) if (knows[i][j]) return -1;
for (auto j = 1; j <= n; ++j) if (i != j && !knows[j][i]) return -1;
return i;
}
};
