Leetcode 211. Design Add and Search Words Data Structure. Python (Prefix Tree)

 

211. Design Add and Search Words Data Structure


Design a data structure that supports adding new words and finding if a string matches any previously added string.

Implement the WordDictionary class:

  • WordDictionary() Initializes the object.
  • void addWord(word) Adds word to the data structure, it can be matched later.
  • bool search(word) Returns true if there is any string in the data structure that matches word or false otherwise. word may contain dots '.' where dots can be matched with any letter.

 

Example:

Input
["WordDictionary","addWord","addWord","addWord","search","search","search","search"]
[[],["bad"],["dad"],["mad"],["pad"],["bad"],[".ad"],["b.."]]
Output
[null,null,null,null,false,true,true,true]

Explanation
WordDictionary wordDictionary = new WordDictionary();
wordDictionary.addWord("bad");
wordDictionary.addWord("dad");
wordDictionary.addWord("mad");
wordDictionary.search("pad"); // return False
wordDictionary.search("bad"); // return True
wordDictionary.search(".ad"); // return True
wordDictionary.search("b.."); // return True

 

Constraints:

  • 1 <= word.length <= 25
  • word in addWord consists of lowercase English letters.
  • word in search consist of '.' or lowercase English letters.
  • There will be at most 3 dots in word for search queries.
  • At most 104 calls will be made to addWord and search.


class TrieNode:
    def __init__(self):
        self.children = {}
        self.eow = False

class WordDictionary:
    def __init__(self):
        self.root = TrieNode()
        
    def addWord(self, word: str) -> None:
        curr = self.root
        for c in word: 
            if c not in curr.children:
                curr.children[c] = TrieNode()
            curr = curr.children[c]
        curr.eow = True

    def search(self, word: str) -> bool:
        def dfs(k, root):
            curr = root
            for i in range(k, len(word)):
                c = word[i]
                if c == ".":
                    for child in curr.children.values():
                        if dfs(i+1, child):
                            return True
                    return False
                else:
                    if c not in curr.children:
                        return False
                    curr = curr.children[c]
            return curr.eow
        
        return dfs(0, self.root)
        


# Your WordDictionary object will be instantiated and called as such:
# obj = WordDictionary()
# obj.addWord(word)
# param_2 = obj.search(word)

May-6 2020 Challenge

  6.   Majority Element Given an array of size  n , find the majority element. The majority element is the element that appears  more than   ⌊ n/2 ⌋  times. You may assume that the array is non-empty and the majority element always exist in the array. Example 1: Input: [3,2,3] Output: 3 Example 2: Input: [2,2,1,1,1,2,2] Output: 2 Solution in Java  class Solution {     public int majorityElement(int[] num) {         int m = num[0], cnt= 1;     for (int i = 1; i < num.length; i++) {         if (cnt == 0) {             m= num[i];             cnt = 1;         } else if (num[i] == m) {             cnt++;         } else              cnt--;    }      return m;...

Leetcode 190. Reverse Bits. Python. Bit Manipulation

  190 .  Reverse Bits Reverse bits of a given 32 bits unsigned integer. Note: Note that in some languages, such as Java, there is no unsigned integer type. In this case, both input and output will be given as a signed integer type. They should not affect your implementation, as the integer's internal binary representation is the same, whether it is signed or unsigned. In Java, the compiler represents the signed integers using  2's complement notation . Therefore, in  Example 2  above, the input represents the signed integer  -3  and the output represents the signed integer  -1073741825 .   Example 1: Input: n = 00000010100101000001111010011100 Output: 964176192 (00111001011110000010100101000000) Explanation: The input binary string 00000010100101000001111010011100 represents the unsigned integer 43261596, so return 964176192 which its binary representation is 00111001011110000010100101000000 . Example 2: Input: n = 11111111111111111111...
