Question 1

Find Extra Letter

Click here to Practice

Problem Statement

You are given a function: char FindExtraLetter(string A, string B, int N);

The function accepts two strings 'A' and 'B' of size 'N' and 'N' + 1 respectively, if we remove one character from 'B' then 'B' becomes the permutation of 'A'. Your task is to return that character.

Example:

Input:

A="cocubes", B="ocucybse", N = 7

Output:

y

Explanation:

If we remove character 'y' from B then B becomes "ocucbse" which is a permutation of A ("cocubes").

The custom input format of the above case:

5

cocubes

ocucybse

(The first line represents 'N', the second line represents the string 'A' and the third line represents the string 'B' which is of size 'N + 1')

Sample input

A = "abcdefghij", B = "jihgfedkcba", N = 10

Sample Output

k

The custom input format for the above case:

10

abcdefghij

jihgfedkcba

(The first line represents 'N', the second line represents the string 'A' and the third line represents the string 'B' which is of size 'N+1')

Problem Statement

You are given a function:

char findExtraLetter(string A, string B, int N);

The function accepts two strings *A' and 'B' of size 'N' and 'N'+1 respectively. If we remove one character from 'B', then '8' becomes the permutation of 'A'. Your task is to return that

character.

Example:

Input:

A- "cocubes*, B= "ocucybse", N = 7

Output:

Explanation:

If we remove character 'y' from | Y then B becomes "ocucbse" which is a permutation of A ("cocubes"),

The custom input format for the above case:

cocubes

ocucybse

(The first line represents 'N', the second line represents the string 'A' and the third line represents the string 'B' which is of size 'N+1")

Sample input

A

"abcdefghig", B - "jingfedkeba", N - 10

Sample Output

1560

k

The custom input format for the above case:

10

abodefghij

jihgfedkeba

(The first line represents 'N', the second line represents the string *A' and the third line

represents the string 'B' which is of size 'N+1')

 

Question 2

Leaf Nodes At Same Level

Problem Statement

A binary tree is represented by the following structure:

struct TreeNode
{
    int data;
    struct TreeNode* left;
    struct TreeNode* right;
};

Implement the following function:

int LeafNodesLevel(struct TreeNode* root);

The function accepts the root node of a binary tree 'root' as its argument. Implement the function to find the sum of leaf nodes at same level and return the product of all the sums.

Assumption:

  • Level of input tree is between D and 2D

Note:

  • If the input tree is NULL (None in case of Python), then return D
  • If all leaf nodes are at the same level then return the sum of leaf nodes

Example:

Input:

leafinput

Output:

36

Explanation:

Sum of the leaf nodes at level 3 is 3 ( 1+ 2) and sum of leaf nodes at level 2 is 12 ( 5+ 4+ 3) and the product of these sums is 36 ( 3 x 12).

The custom input format for the above case:

3

9 8 7 6 5 4 3 1 2 -1 -1 -1 -1 -1 -1

(The first line represents the height of the tree, the second line represents the level order traversal of the given tree, in second line -1 represents an empty node)

Sample Input

leafinputtwo

Sample output

16

The custom input format for the above case:

2

10 9 2 1 7 -1 -1

(The first line represents the height of the tree, the second line represents the level order traversal of the given tree, in second line -1 represents an empty node)

Instructions :

  • This is a template based question, DO NOT write the "main" function.
  • Your code is judged by an automated system, do not write any additional welcome/greeting messages.
  • "Save and Test" only checks for basic test cases, more rigorous cases will be used to judge your code while scoring.
  • Additional score will be given for writing optimized code both in terms of memory and execution time.

Question 1:

Approach:

  • If String X is a permutation of String Y, then each frequency of each character in X is the same as Y .
  • So find the frequency of each character in strings A and B, and check for which character they are different. Output that.

PseudoCode:

char findExtraLetter(string A, string B, int N)
{
    vector<int> A1(26, 0), B1(26, 0);
    for (int i = 0; i < N; i++)
    {
        A1[int(A[i] - 'a')]++;
        B1[int(B[i] - 'a')]++;
    }
    B1[int(B[N] - 'a')]++;
    char ans;
    for (int i = 0; i < 26; i++)
    {
        if (A1[i] != B1[i])
        {
            ans = char(int(i + 'a'));
            break;
        }
    }
    return ans;

Question 2: Leaf Node at Same Level


Overview

  • Given a Binary tree. Implement an function to find the sum of leaf nodes at same level and return the product of all the sums.
  • 20 >= Height of Binary tree (H) >= 0

Approach

  • Maintain an heightSum array ( i th value of heightSum array contains the sum of leaf nodes at level i ).
  • Do a dfs on the tree with height of the node passed to the dfs function.
  • check if the current node is leaf node. If Yes then add the value of that node to heightSum[height], else dfs to its child node with childHeight=height+1
  • Now initialize ans variable = 1 and iterate over the heightSum array and if the i*thheight contains a leaf node ( We can check it by keeping a hasLeaf boolean array, if its true, it means their is a leaf node at ithheight) multiply that **heightSum [ i ]*** to our ans.
  • return ans

  • Eg: Take below tree as an example with root value 10 and leaf nodes marked in green color. [graph image][1]
  • Lets start dfs from root node, We pass root node and height = 0 to dfs.
  • we are now at node with value 10. Check whether its a leaf node. Its not a leaf node. Now call dfs on its left and right child with height = prev_height + 1 i.e. 0 + 1 = 1
  • left child of 10 i.e. 9 . Check whether its a leaf node. Its not a leaf node. Now call dfs on its left and right child with height = prev_height+1 i.e. 1+1 = 2
  • left child of 9 i.e 1. Now this is a leaf node with height 2, we mark hasLeaf [ 2 ] = true and heightSum [ 2 ] += value (here 1), and heightSum [ 2 ] = 1
  • right child of 9 i.e. 7. Now this is a leaf node with height 2, we mark hasLeaf [ 2 ] = true and heightSum [ 2 ] += value (here 7) i.e. { 1 + 7 } heightSum [ 2 ] = 8.
  • right child of 10 i.e. 2 . Now this is a leaf node with height 1, we mark hasLeaf [ 1 ] = true and heightSum [ 1 ] += value (here 2) i.e. { 0 + 2 } heightSum [ 1 ] = 2.
  • dfs ends as no more children are left
  • As we are given that the maximum height of tree can be 20. Then we iterate on height from 0 to 20. Initialize ans = 1 and whenever we find hasLeaf [ height ] = true, we multiply ans with heightSum [ height ] i.e.
  • For height = 1, ans = ans x heightSum [ 1 ] => ans = ans x 2 => ans = 2
  • For height = 2, ans = ans x heightSum [ 2 ] => ans = ans x 8 => ans = 16
  • return ans; { ans = 16 }

Complexity

  • O(N) | N is the number of nodes.

Pseudo Code

void dfs(vector<int> &heightSum,vector<int>&hasLeaf,int height,TreeNode* root){
    if(root->left == NULL && root->right == NULL){     // check whether node is a leaf node
        hasLeaf[height]=1;     // *height* has a leaf node
        heightSum[height]+=root->data;   // adding value of leaf node to this height
        return;
    }
    dfs(heightSum,vis,height+1,root->left);    // dfs on left child 
    dfs(heightSum,vis,height+1,root->right);  // dfs on right child 
}

int Solution(TreeNode* Root){
    if(Root == NULL) return 0;   // returning D=0 if tree is empty
    vector<int> heightSum(20,0);
    vector<int> hasLeaf(20,0);
    dfs(heightSum,hasLeaf,0,Root);
    long long int ans=1;
    long long int mod=1e9+7;
    for(int i=0;i<20;i++){
        if(hasLeaf[i]==1)
        ans*=heightSum[i];
        ans%=mod;
    }
    return ans;
}
