Seemed easy at the start as I misread query 3. I read it as if there exists at least one of this number in the data structure. I tried coding this immediately without writing it on paper, and was stuck pretty quickly or found out I was heading down in...
I first implemented this using a stack - it wasn’t too hard to get everything up to speed. It was only until I tried submitting it, that HackerRank did not allow me to use additional data structures (or perhaps I could but just didn’t know how). The only other way...
A simple problem. Not sure why I’m even writing about it but here goes. It was simply executing it and knowing how to use vector and manipulating the grid well. I first coded on paper, and then wrote the code directly into the HackerRank screen. Made a small mistake in...
This question was pretty involved. I never knew that implementing a tree was this hard in C++. In addition to that, I refreshed my knowledge on the various traversals and realized that I’ve totally forgotten about each type of traversal. Once you get the tree data structure right, the question...
First post of 2019 in February instead of January! Well, that’s not too bad. I was really busy in January and did not carve the time out to do a review. This is not an excuse though. I just did not try hard enough. This post will be about reviewing...
