Given a binary tree, determine if it is a valid binary search tree (BST). Assume a BST is defined as follows: The left subtree of a node contains only nodes with keys less than the node’s key. The right subtree of a node contains only nodes with keys greater than […]
Interleaving String Given s1, s2, s3, find whether s3 is formed by the interleaving of s1 and s2. For example, Given: s1 = “aabcc”, s2 = “dbbca”, When s3 = “aadbbcbcac”, return true. When s3 = “aadbbbaccc”, return false. //方案一，递归，超时。复杂度o(n+m) class Solution { public: bool isInterleave(string s1, string s2, string […]
Unique Binary Search Trees II Given n, generate all structurally unique BST’s (binary search trees) that store values 1…n. For example, Given n = 3, your program should return all 5 unique BST’s shown below. 1 3 3 2 1 \ / / / \ \ 3 2 1 1 […]
Decode Ways A message containing letters from A-Z is being encoded to numbers using the following mapping: ‘A’ -> 1 ‘B’ -> 2 … ‘Z’ -> 26 Given an encoded message containing digits, determine the total number of ways to decode it. For example, Given encoded message “12”, it could […]
Subsets II Given a collection of integers that might contain duplicates, nums, return all possible subsets. Note: Elements in a subset must be in non-descending order. The solution set must not contain duplicate subsets. For example, If nums = [1,2,2], a solution is: [ [2], [1], [1,2,2], [2,2], [1,2], [] […]
Gray Code The gray code is a binary numeral system where two successive values differ in only one bit. Given a non-negative integer n representing the total number of bits in the code, print the sequence of gray code. A gray code sequence must begin with 0. For example, given […]
Follow up for “Search in Rotated Sorted Array”: What if duplicates are allowed? Would this affect the run-time complexity? How and why? Write a function to determine if a given target is in the array. //This question is the advanced version of question “Search in Rotated Sorted Array I” […]
Given a string S and a string T, find the minimum window in S which will contain all the characters in T in complexity O(n). For example, S = “ADOBECODEBANC” T = “ABC” Minimum window is “BANC”. Note: If there is no such window in S that covers all characters […]
Given a triangle, find the minimum path sum from top to bottom. Each step you may move to adjacent numbers on the row below. For example, given the following triangle [ [2], [3,4], [6,5,7], [4,1,8,3] ] The minimum path sum from top to bottom is 11 (i.e., 2 + 3 […]
Given a binary tree, check whether it is a mirror of itself (ie, symmetric around its center). For example, this binary tree is symmetric: 1 / \ 2 2 / \ / \ 3 4 4 3 But the following is not: 1 / \ 2 2 \ \ 3 […]
