Minimum number of jumps to reach end

Problem Statement Suppose you have an array of integers and each element of an array indicates each number as maximum jumps that can be taken from that point. Your task is to find out the minimum number of jumps to reach end, i.e. minimum of jumps that can be taken …

Maximum Sum Increasing Subsequence

Problem Statement You are given an array of integers. Your task is to find out the maximum sum subsequence within the array in such a way that the numbers in subsequence should be ordered in a sorted manner in increasing order. A subsequence is nothing but a sequence that we …

Largest Sum Contiguous Subarray

Problem Statement You are given an array of integers. The problem statement asks to find out the largest sum contiguous subarray. This means nothing but to find a subarray (continuous elements) which has the largest sum among all other subarrays in the given array. Example arr[] = {1, -3, 4, …

Huffman Coding

We have a message that we want to deliver. We want the message to be of least size possible so that the costs incurred in sending the message is low. Here we use the Huffman Coding concept to reduce the size of the message. Let’s assume that we have the …

Maximum occurring character in a string

Given a string of size n containing lower case letters. We need to find the maximum occurring character in a string. If there is more than one character with a maximum occurrence then print any of them. Example Input: String s=”test” Output: Maximum occurring character is ‘t’. Approach 1: Using …

Decode Ways

In Decode Ways problem we have given a non-empty string containing only digits, determine the total number of ways to decode it using the following mapping: ‘A’ -> 1 ‘B’ -> 2 … ‘Z’ -> 26 Example S = “123” Number of ways to decode this string is 3 If we …

Queue using Stacks

In queue using a stack problem, we have to implement the following functions of a queue using the standard functions of stack data structure, Enqueue: Add an element to the end of the queue Dequeue: Remove an element from the start of the queue Example Input: Enqueue(5) Enqueue(11) Enqueue(39) Dequeue() …

Next Permutation

In the next permutation problem we have given a word, find the lexicographically greater_permutation of it. Example input : str = “tutorialcup” output : tutorialpcu input : str = “nmhdgfecba” output : nmheabcdfg input : str = “algorithms” output : algorithsm input : str = “spoonfeed” output : Next Permutation …

Longest Common Subsequence

You are given two strings str1 and str2, find out the length of the longest common subsequence. Subsequence: a subsequence is a sequence that can be derived from another sequence by deleting some or no elements without changing the order of the remaining elements. For ex ‘tticp‘ is the subsequence …

Topological Sorting

Given a directed acyclic graph, topologically sort the graph nodes. Topological Sorting Example Topological sorting of above graph is -> {1,2,3,0,5,4} Theory Topological Sorting is done for a Directed Acyclic Graph (DAG). A DAG has no cycles in it. ie, there is no such path starting from any node of …
