Leetcode 141. Linked List Cycle. Python. Floyd's Tortoise and Hare Algorithm

 141Linked List Cycle


Given head, the head of a linked list, determine if the linked list has a cycle in it.

There is a cycle in a linked list if there is some node in the list that can be reached again by continuously following the next pointer. Internally, pos is used to denote the index of the node that tail's next pointer is connected to. Note that pos is not passed as a parameter.

Return true if there is a cycle in the linked list. Otherwise, return false.

Input: head = [3,2,0,-4], pos = 1
Output: true
Explanation: There is a cycle in the linked list, where the tail connects to the 1st node (0-indexed).





Solution :

# Definition for singly-linked list.
# class ListNode:
#     def __init__(self, x):
#         self.val = x
#         self.next = None

class Solution:
    def hasCycle(self, head: Optional[ListNode]) -> bool:
        s,f = head, head
        
        while f and f.next:
            s = s.next
            f = f.next.next
            if s == f:
                return True
        
        return False

Leetcode 371. Sum of Two Integers. C++ / Java

371 .  Sum of Two Integers   Given two integers  a  and  b , return  the sum of the two integers without using the operators   +   and   - .   Example 1: Input: a = 1, b = 2 Output: 3 Example 2: Input: a = 2, b = 3 Output: 5   Constraints: -1000 <= a, b <= 1000 Solution :  C++ : class Solution { public: int getSum(int a, int b) { if (b==0) return a; int sum = a ^ b; int cr = (unsigned int) (a & b) << 1; return getSum(sum, cr); } }; Java :  class Solution { public int getSum(int a, int b) { while(b != 0){ int tmp = (a & b) << 1; a = a ^ b; b = tmp; } return a; } } Explaination :

Number of Connected Components in an Undirected Graph (Python)

66.  Number of Connected Components in an Undirected Graph Question Link :  check here Givennnodes labeled from0ton - 1and a list of undirected edges (each edge is a pair of nodes), write a function to find the number of connected components in an undirected graph. Example 1:      0          3      |          |      1 --- 2    4 Givenn = 5andedges = [[0, 1], [1, 2], [3, 4]], return2. Example 2:      0           4      |           |      1 --- 2 --- 3 Givenn = 5andedges = [[0, 1], [1, 2], [2, 3], [3, 4]], return1. Note: You can assume that no duplicate edges will appear inedges. Since all edges are undirected,[0, 1]is the same as[1, 0]and thus will not appear together inedges. Solution : class Solution: def counComponents(self, n: int, edges : List[List[int]]) -> i...

Leetcode 347. Top K Frequent Elements. Python (Bubble Sort)

Top K Frequent Elements Given an integer array  nums  and an integer  k , return  the   k   most frequent elements . You may return the answer in  any order .   Example 1: Input: nums = [1,1,1,2,2,3], k = 2 Output: [1,2] Example 2: Input: nums = [1], k = 1 Output: [1]   Constraints: 1 <= nums.length <= 10 5 -10 4  <= nums[i] <= 10 4 k  is in the range  [1, the number of unique elements in the array] . It is  guaranteed  that the answer is  unique .   Follow up:  Your algorithm's time complexity must be better than  O(n log n) , where n is the array's size. Solution : class Solution:     def topKFrequent(self, n: List[int], k: int) -> List[int]:                  # [1,1,1,2,2,3] &  k = 2                  f = [[] for i in range(len(n) + 1)]         # f = [...
