In an alien language, surprisingly, they also use English lowercase letters, but possibly in a different order. The order of the alphabet is some permutation of lowercase letters. Given a sequence of words written in the alien language, and the order of the alphabet, return true if and only if the given words are sorted lexicographically in this alien language. Example 1: Input: words = [“hello”,”leetcode”], …
Given an array of points where points[i] = [xi, yi] represents a point on the X-Y plane and an integer k, return the k closest points to the origin (0, 0). The distance between two points on the X-Y plane is the Euclidean distance (i.e., √(x1 – x2)2 + (y1 – y2)2). You may return the answer in any order. The answer is guaranteed to be unique (except for the order that it is in). Example …
Given two nodes of a binary tree p and q, return their lowest common ancestor (LCA). Each node will have a reference to its parent node. The definition for Node is below: class Node { public int val; public Node left; public Node right; public Node parent; } According to the definition of LCA on Wikipedia: “The lowest common ancestor of two nodes p …

Given the root node of a binary search tree and two integers low and high, return the sum of values of all nodes with a value in the inclusive range [low, high]. Example 1: Input: root = [10,5,15,3,7,null,18], low = 7, high = 15 Output: 32 Explanation: Nodes 7, 10, and 15 are in the range [7, 15]. 7 + 10 + 15 = …
There are n buildings in a line. You are given an integer array heights of size n that represents the heights of the buildings in the line. The ocean is to the right of the buildings. A building has an ocean view if the building can see the ocean without obstructions. Formally, a building has an ocean view if all the …
Given two sparse vectors, compute their dot product. Implement class SparseVector: SparseVector(nums) Initializes the object with the vector nums dotProduct(vec) Compute the dot product between the instance of SparseVector and vec A sparse vector is a vector that has mostly zero values, you should store the sparse vector efficiently and compute the dot product between two SparseVector. Follow up: What if only one of the vectors is sparse? …
Given a string s, return true if the s can be palindrome after deleting at most one character from it. Example 1: Input: s = “aba” Output: true Example 2: Input: s = “abca” Output: true Explanation: You could delete the character ‘c’. Example 3: Input: s = “abc” Output: false Constraints: 1 <= s.length <= 105 s consists of lowercase English letters. …
Given a string s of ‘(‘ , ‘)’ and lowercase English characters. Your task is to remove the minimum number of parentheses ( ‘(‘ or ‘)’, in any positions ) so that the resulting parentheses string is valid and return any valid string. Formally, a parentheses string is valid if and only if: It is the empty string, contains only lowercase characters, or It can be written as AB (A concatenated with B), where A and B are …
Given n pairs of parentheses, write a function to generate all combinations of well-formed parentheses. Example 1: Input: n = 3 Output: [“((()))”,”(()())”,”(())()”,”()(())”,”()()()”] Example 2: Input: n = 1 Output: [“()”] Constraints: 1 <= n <= 8 p is the parenthesis-string built so far, left and right tell the number of left and right parentheses still to add, and parens collects the parentheses. Solution 1 …
Given a string s, return the longest palindromic substring in s. Example 1: Input: s = “babad” Output: “bab” Note: “aba” is also a valid answer. Example 2: Input: s = “cbbd” Output: “bb” Example 3: Input: s = “a” Output: “a” Example 4: Input: s = “ac” Output: “a” Constraints: 1 <= s.length <= 1000 s consist of only …
