Merge Intervals - Leetcode 56 - Python

 Given an array of intervals where intervals[i] = [starti, endi], merge all overlapping intervals, and return an array of the non-overlapping intervals that cover all the intervals in the input.



Example 1:

Input: intervals = [[1,3],[2,6],[8,10],[15,18]]
Output: [[1,6],[8,10],[15,18]]
Explanation: Since intervals [1,3] and [2,6] overlap, merge them into [1,6].

Example 2:

Input: intervals = [[1,4],[4,5]]
Output: [[1,5]]
Explanation: Intervals [1,4] and [4,5] are considered overlapping.

 

Constraints:

  • 1 <= intervals.length <= 104
  • intervals[i].length == 2
  • 0 <= starti <= endi <= 104



class Solution:

    def merge(self, v: List[List[int]]) -> List[List[int]]:

        # [[1,3],[2,6],[8,10],[15,18]]

        v.sort(key = lambda i : i[0])

        ans = [v[0]] #[[1,3]]

        

        for f,t in v[1:] :

            l2 = ans[-1][1] # l2 = 3 

            

            if f <= l2 : #[2,6]

                ans[-1][1] = max(l2, t)

            else:

                ans.append([f,t])

        return ans

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 :

Container with Most Water - Leetcode 11 - Python

  You are given an integer array   height   of length   n . There are   n   vertical lines drawn such that the two endpoints of the   i th   line are   (i, 0)   and   (i, height[i]) . Find two lines that together with the x-axis form a container, such that the container contains the most water. Return  the maximum amount of water a container can store . Notice  that you may not slant the container.   Input: height = [1,8,6,2,5,4,8,3,7] Output: 49 Explanation: The above vertical lines are represented by array [1,8,6,2,5,4,8,3,7]. In this case, the max area of water (blue section) the container can contain is 49. class Solution:     def maxArea(self, height: List[int]) -> int:         # ans = 0         # for l in range(len(height)):         #     for r in range(l+1, len(height)):         #      ...

Leetcode 424. Longest Repeating Character Replacement. Python (Sliding Window)

  424 .  Longest Repeating Character Replacement You are given a string  s  and an integer  k . You can choose any character of the string and change it to any other uppercase English character. You can perform this operation at most  k  times. Return  the length of the longest substring containing the same letter you can get after performing the above operations .   Example 1: Input: s = "ABAB", k = 2 Output: 4 Explanation: Replace the two 'A's with two 'B's or vice versa. Example 2: Input: s = "AABABBA", k = 1 Output: 4 Explanation: Replace the one 'A' in the middle with 'B' and form "AABBBBA". The substring "BBBB" has the longest repeating letters, which is 4.   Constraints: 1 <= s.length <= 10 5 s  consists of only uppercase English letters. 0 <= k <= s.length Solution :  class Solution: def characterReplacement(self, s: str, k: int) -> int: hm = {} ans = 0 ...
