```
|
||||||
|
See problem → Identify pattern → Apply template → Optimize
|
||||||
|
```
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
### 2. Time/Space Analysis
|
||||||
|
```
|
||||||
|
Always analyze:
|
||||||
|
- Time complexity: O(?)
|
||||||
|
- Space complexity: O(?)
|

# Data Structures Reference
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Essential data structures for technical interviews with implementation patterns.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
## Arrays
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
**Use when:** Sequential data, random access needed
|
||||||
|
**Time:** Access O(1), Search O(n), Insert/Delete O(n)
|
||||||
|
**Space:** O(n)
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
### Common Patterns
|
||||||
|
```python
|
||||||
|
# Reverse
|
||||||
|
arr[::-1]
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
# Two pointers
|
||||||
|
left, right = 0, len(arr) - 1
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
# Sliding window
|
||||||
|
for end in range(len(arr)):
|
||||||
|
window.add(arr[end])
|
||||||
|
if end >= k:
|
||||||
|
window.remove(arr[end - k])
|
||||||
|
```
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
### Product Example: Instagram Feed
|
||||||
|
```python
|
||||||
|
class InstagramFeed:
|
||||||
|
def __init__(self):
|
||||||
|
self.posts = [] # Array of posts
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
def add_post(self, post):
|
||||||
|
self.posts.insert(0, post) # New posts at beginning
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
def get_feed(self, start, limit):
|
||||||
|
return self.posts[start:start + limit]
|
||||||
|
```
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
## Hash Maps

||||||
|
|
||||||
|
**Use when:** Fast lookups, counting, caching

||||||
|
**Time:** O(1) average for all operations
|
||||||
|
**Space:** O(n)
|
||||||
|
|

|
### Common Patterns
|
||||||
|
```python
|
||||||
|
# Frequency counter
|
||||||
|
freq = {}
|
||||||
|
for item in items:
|
||||||
|
freq[item] = freq.get(item, 0) + 1
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
# Two sum
|
||||||
|
seen = {}
|
||||||
|
for i, num in enumerate(nums):
|
||||||
|
complement = target - num
|
||||||
|
if complement in seen:
|
||||||
|
return [seen[complement], i]
|
||||||
|
seen[num] = i
|
||||||
|
```

self.hashtag_count = {}
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
def process_tweet(self, tweet):
|
||||||
|
for hashtag in tweet.hashtags:
|
||||||
|
self.hashtag_count[hashtag] = \
|
||||||
|
self.hashtag_count.get(hashtag, 0) + 1
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
def get_trending(self, k):
|
||||||
|
return sorted(self.hashtag_count.items(),
|
||||||
|
key=lambda x: x[1], reverse=True)[:k]
|
||||||
|
```
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
## Linked Lists

**Time:** Access O(n), Insert/Delete O(1) at known position
|
||||||
|
**Space:** O(n)
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|

||||||
|
```python
|
||||||
|
# Fast & slow pointers (detect cycle)
|
||||||
|
slow = fast = head
|
||||||
|
while fast and fast.next:
|
||||||
|
slow = slow.next
|
||||||
|
fast = fast.next.next
|
||||||
|
if slow == fast:
|
||||||
|
return True
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
# Reverse linked list
|
||||||

curr = head
|
||||||
|
while curr:
|
||||||
|
next_node = curr.next
|
||||||
|
curr.next = prev
|
||||||
|
prev = curr

|
||||||
|
new_page.prev = self.current
|
||||||
|
if self.current:
|
||||||
|
self.current.next = new_page
|
||||||
|
self.current = new_page
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
def back(self):
|
||||||
|
if self.current and self.current.prev:
|
||||||
|
self.current = self.current.prev
|
||||||
|
return self.current.url
|
||||||
|
|
||||||

self.undo_stack = []
|
||||||
|
self.redo_stack = []
|
||||||
|
self.content = ""
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
def type(self, text):
|
||||||
|
self.undo_stack.append(self.content)
|
||||||
|
self.content += text
|
||||||
|
self.redo_stack.clear()
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
def undo(self):
|
||||||
|
if self.undo_stack:
|

|
self.redo_stack.append(self.content)
|
||||||
|
self.content = self.undo_stack.pop()
|

|
|
||||||
|
def redo(self):
|
||||||
|
if self.redo_stack:
|
||||||
|
self.undo_stack.append(self.content)
|
||||||
|
self.content = self.redo_stack.pop()
|
||||||
|
```
|
||||||
|
|

from collections import deque
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
# BFS
|
||||||
|
queue = deque([start])
|
||||||
|
visited = {start}
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
while queue:
|
||||||
|
node = queue.popleft()

|
max_heap = []
|
||||||
|
for point in points:

|
queue.append(neighbor)
|
||||||
|
```
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
### Product Example: Social Network
|
||||||
|
```python
|
||||||
|
class SocialNetwork:
|
||||||
|
def __init__(self):
|
||||||
|
self.friends = {} # user_id -> [friend_ids]
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
def add_friendship(self, user1, user2):
|
||||||
|
if user1 not in self.friends:
|
||||||
|
self.friends[user1] = []
|
||||||
|
if user2 not in self.friends:
|
||||||
|
self.friends[user2] = []
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
self.friends[user1].append(user2)
|
||||||
|
self.friends[user2].append(user1)
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
def degrees_of_separation(self, user1, user2):
|
||||||
|
"""BFS to find shortest path"""
|
||||||
|
if user1 == user2:
|
||||||
|
return 0
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
visited = {user1}
|
||||||
|
queue = deque([(user1, 0)])
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
while queue:
|
||||||
|
current, degree = queue.popleft()
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
for friend in self.friends.get(current, []):
|
||||||
|
if friend == user2:
|
||||||
|
return degree + 1
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
if friend not in visited:
|
||||||
|
visited.add(friend)
|
||||||
|
queue.append((friend, degree + 1))
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
return -1 # Not connected
|
||||||
|
```
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
## Tries (Prefix Trees)
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
**Use when:** Autocomplete, prefix matching, dictionary
|
||||||
|
**Time:** O(m) for word length m
|
||||||
|
**Space:** O(ALPHABET_SIZE * m * n)
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
### Common Patterns
|
||||||
|
```python
|
||||||
|
class TrieNode:
|
||||||
|
def __init__(self):
|
||||||
|
self.children = {}
|
||||||
|
self.is_end = False
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
class Trie:
|
||||||
|
def __init__(self):
|
||||||
|
self.root = TrieNode()
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
def insert(self, word):
|
||||||
|
node = self.root
|
||||||
|
for char in word:
|
||||||
|
if char not in node.children:
|
||||||
|
node.children[char] = TrieNode()
|
||||||
|
node = node.children[char]
|
||||||
|
node.is_end = True
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
def search(self, word):
|
||||||
|
node = self.root
|
||||||
|
for char in word:
|
||||||
|
if char not in node.children:
|
||||||
|
return False
|
||||||
|
node = node.children[char]
|
||||||
|
return node.is_end
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
def starts_with(self, prefix):
|
||||||
|
node = self.root
|
||||||
|
for char in prefix:
|
||||||
|
if char not in node.children:
|
||||||
|
return False
|
||||||
|
node = node.children[char]
|
||||||
|
return True
|
||||||
|
```
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
### Product Example: Google Search Autocomplete
|
||||||
|
```python
|
||||||
|
class Autocomplete:
|
||||||
|
def __init__(self):
|
||||||
|
self.trie = Trie()
|
||||||
|
self.word_frequency = {}
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
def add_search(self, query):
|
||||||
|
self.trie.insert(query)
|
||||||
|
self.word_frequency[query] = \
|
||||||
|
self.word_frequency.get(query, 0) + 1
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
def get_suggestions(self, prefix):
|
||||||
|
suggestions = []
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
def dfs(node, current_word):
|
||||||
|
if node.is_end:
|
||||||
|
suggestions.append(current_word)
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
for char, child_node in node.children.items():
|
||||||
|
dfs(child_node, current_word + char)
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
# Find prefix node
|
||||||
|
node = self.trie.root
|
||||||
|
for char in prefix:
|
||||||
|
if char not in node.children:
|
||||||
|
return []
|
||||||
|
node = node.children[char]
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
# DFS from prefix node
|
||||||
|
dfs(node, prefix)
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
# Sort by frequency
|
||||||
|
return sorted(suggestions,
|
||||||
|
key=lambda x: self.word_frequency.get(x, 0),
|
||||||
|
reverse=True)[:5]
|
||||||
|
```
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
## Summary
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Master these data structures with their common patterns:

# LeetCode Patterns Reference
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
The 20 essential coding patterns for technical interviews with templates and real product examples.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
## Pattern 1: Two Pointers
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
**When to Use:** Find pairs, triplets, or process sorted arrays
|
||||||
|
**Time:** O(n), **Space:** O(1)
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
### Template (Python)
|
||||||
|
```python
|
||||||
|
def two_pointers(arr):
|
||||||
|
left, right = 0, len(arr) - 1
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
while left < right:
|
||||||
|
# Process current pair
|
||||||
|
if condition:
|
||||||
|
# Found solution
|
||||||
|
return [left, right]
|
||||||
|
elif arr[left] + arr[right] < target:
|
||||||
|
left += 1
|
||||||
|
else:
|
||||||
|
right -= 1
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
return []
|
||||||
|
```
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
### Real Example: Instagram Mutual Likes
|
||||||
|
```python
|
||||||
|
def find_mutual_likes(user_ids, target_sum):
|
||||||
|
"""Find two users whose IDs sum to target"""
|
||||||
|
left, right = 0, len(user_ids) - 1
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
while left < right:
|
||||||
|
current_sum = user_ids[left] + user_ids[right]
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
if current_sum == target_sum:
|
||||||
|
return [left, right]
|
||||||
|
elif current_sum < target_sum:
|
||||||
|
left += 1
|
||||||
|
else:
|
||||||
|
right -= 1
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
return []
|
||||||
|
```
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
## Pattern 2: Sliding Window
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
**When to Use:** Find subarray/substring with property
|
||||||
|
**Time:** O(n), **Space:** O(k)
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
### Template (Python)
|
||||||
|
```python
|
||||||
|
def sliding_window(arr, k):
|
||||||
|
window_start = 0
|
||||||
|
max_sum = 0
|
||||||
|
window_sum = 0
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
for window_end in range(len(arr)):
|
||||||
|
window_sum += arr[window_end]
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
if window_end >= k - 1:
|
||||||
|
max_sum = max(max_sum, window_sum)
|
||||||
|
window_sum -= arr[window_start]
|
||||||
|
window_start += 1
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
return max_sum
|
||||||
|
```
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
### Real Example: Twitter Trending Topics
|
||||||
|
```python
|
||||||
|
def trending_in_window(tweets, time_window):
|
||||||
|
"""Find most mentioned hashtag in time window"""
|
||||||
|
hashtag_count = {}
|
||||||
|
max_count = 0
|
||||||
|
trending = ""
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
for i, tweet in enumerate(tweets):
|
||||||
|
# Add new tweet
|
||||||
|
if tweet.hashtag in hashtag_count:
|
||||||
|
hashtag_count[tweet.hashtag] += 1
|
||||||
|
else:
|
||||||
|
hashtag_count[tweet.hashtag] = 1
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
# Remove old tweets outside window
|
||||||
|
if i >= time_window:
|
||||||
|
old_tag = tweets[i - time_window].hashtag
|
||||||
|
hashtag_count[old_tag] -= 1
|
||||||
|
if hashtag_count[old_tag] == 0:
|
||||||
|
del hashtag_count[old_tag]
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
# Track max
|
||||||
|
for tag, count in hashtag_count.items():
|
||||||
|
if count > max_count:
|
||||||
|
max_count = count
|
||||||
|
trending = tag
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
return trending
|
||||||
|
```
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
## Pattern 3: Fast & Slow Pointers
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
**When to Use:** Detect cycles, find middle element
|
||||||
|
**Time:** O(n), **Space:** O(1)
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
### Template (Python)
|
||||||
|
```python
|
||||||
|
def has_cycle(head):
|
||||||
|
slow = fast = head
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
while fast and fast.next:
|
||||||
|
slow = slow.next
|
||||||
|
fast = fast.next.next
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
if slow == fast:
|
||||||
|
return True
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
return False
|
||||||
|
```
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
### Real Example: Package Manager Circular Dependency
|
||||||
|
```python
|
||||||
|
def detect_circular_dependency(package):
|
||||||
|
"""Detect if package has circular dependencies"""
|
||||||
|
slow = fast = package
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
while fast and fast.next_dependency:
|
||||||
|
slow = slow.next_dependency
|
||||||
|
fast = fast.next_dependency.next_dependency
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
if slow == fast:
|
||||||
|
return True # Circular dependency found!
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
return False
|
||||||
|
```
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
## Pattern 4: Merge Intervals
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
**When to Use:** Overlapping intervals, scheduling
|
||||||
|
**Time:** O(n log n), **Space:** O(n)
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
### Template (Python)
|
||||||
|
```python
|
||||||
|
def merge_intervals(intervals):
|
||||||
|
if not intervals:
|
||||||
|
return []
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
intervals.sort(key=lambda x: x[0])
|
||||||
|
merged = [intervals[0]]
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
for current in intervals[1:]:
|
||||||
|
last = merged[-1]
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
if current[0] <= last[1]:
|
||||||
|
# Overlapping, merge
|
||||||
|
merged[-1] = [last[0], max(last[1], current[1])]
|
||||||
|
else:
|
||||||
|
# Non-overlapping
|
||||||
|
merged.append(current)
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
return merged
|
||||||
|
```
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
### Real Example: Google Calendar Free Slots
|
||||||
|
```python
|
||||||
|
def find_free_slots(calendars, duration):
|
||||||
|
"""Find free meeting slots for all attendees"""
|
||||||
|
# Merge all busy times
|
||||||
|
busy = []
|
||||||
|
for calendar in calendars:
|
||||||
|
busy.extend(calendar.busy_times)
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
busy.sort()
|
||||||
|
merged_busy = merge_intervals(busy)
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
# Find gaps >= duration
|
||||||
|
free_slots = []
|
||||||
|
for i in range(len(merged_busy) - 1):
|
||||||
|
gap_start = merged_busy[i][1]
|
||||||
|
gap_end = merged_busy[i + 1][0]
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
if gap_end - gap_start >= duration:
|
||||||
|
free_slots.append([gap_start, gap_end])
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
return free_slots
|
||||||
|
```
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
## Pattern 5: Binary Search (Modified)
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
**When to Use:** Search in O(log n), find boundary
|
||||||
|
**Time:** O(log n), **Space:** O(1)
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
### Template (Python)
|
||||||
|
```python
|
||||||
|
def binary_search_modified(arr, target):
|
||||||
|
left, right = 0, len(arr) - 1
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
while left <= right:
|
||||||
|
mid = (left + right) // 2
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
if arr[mid] == target:
|
||||||
|
return mid
|
||||||
|
elif arr[mid] < target:
|
||||||
|
left = mid + 1
|
||||||
|
else:
|
||||||
|
right = mid - 1
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
return -1
|
||||||
|
```
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
### Real Example: GitHub Find Bug Introduction Version
|
||||||
|
```python
|
||||||
|
def find_first_bad_version(versions):
|
||||||
|
"""Binary search to find when bug was introduced"""
|
||||||
|
left, right = 0, len(versions) - 1
|
||||||
|
first_bad = -1
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
while left <= right:
|
||||||
|
mid = (left + right) // 2
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
if is_bad_version(versions[mid]):
|
||||||
|
first_bad = mid
|
||||||
|
right = mid - 1 # Look for earlier bad version
|
||||||
|
else:
|
||||||
|
left = mid + 1
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
return first_bad
|
||||||
|
```
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
## Pattern 6: Top K Elements
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
**When to Use:** Find top/bottom K items
|
||||||
|
**Time:** O(n log k), **Space:** O(k)
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
### Template (Python)
|
||||||
|
```python
|
||||||
|
import heapq
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
def top_k_elements(nums, k):
|
||||||
|
# Min heap of size k
|
||||||
|
min_heap = []
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
for num in nums:
|
||||||
|
heapq.heappush(min_heap, num)
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
if len(min_heap) > k:
|
||||||
|
heapq.heappop(min_heap)
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
return min_heap
|
||||||
|
```
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
### Real Example: Reddit Top Posts
|
||||||
|
```python
|
||||||
|
def get_top_k_posts(posts, k):
|
||||||
|
"""Get top K posts by upvotes"""
|
||||||
|
min_heap = []
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
for post in posts:
|
||||||
|
heapq.heappush(min_heap, (post.upvotes, post))
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
if len(min_heap) > k:
|
||||||
|
heapq.heappop(min_heap)
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
return [post for (upvotes, post) in sorted(min_heap, reverse=True)]
|
||||||
|
```
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
## Pattern 7: BFS (Breadth-First Search)
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
**When to Use:** Shortest path, level-order traversal
|
||||||
|
**Time:** O(V + E), **Space:** O(V)
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
### Template (Python)
|
||||||
|
```python
|
||||||
|
from collections import deque
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
def bfs(root):
|
||||||
|
if not root:
|
||||||
|
return []
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
result = []
|
||||||
|
queue = deque([root])
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
while queue:
|
||||||
|
level_size = len(queue)
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
for _ in range(level_size):
|
||||||
|
node = queue.popleft()
|
||||||
|
result.append(node.val)
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
if node.left:
|
||||||
|
queue.append(node.left)
|
||||||
|
if node.right:
|
||||||
|
queue.append(node.right)
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
return result
|
||||||
|
```
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
### Real Example: LinkedIn Degrees of Connection
|
||||||
|
```python
|
||||||
|
def degrees_of_connection(user1, user2):
|
||||||
|
"""Find shortest connection path between users"""
|
||||||
|
if user1 == user2:
|
||||||
|
return 0
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
visited = {user1}
|
||||||
|
queue = deque([(user1, 0)])
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
while queue:
|
||||||
|
current_user, degree = queue.popleft()
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
for connection in current_user.connections:
|
||||||
|
if connection == user2:
|
||||||
|
return degree + 1
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
if connection not in visited:
|
||||||
|
visited.add(connection)
|
||||||
|
queue.append((connection, degree + 1))
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
return -1 # Not connected
|
||||||
|
```
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
## Pattern 8: DFS (Depth-First Search)
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
**When to Use:** Path finding, backtracking
|
||||||
|
**Time:** O(V + E), **Space:** O(V)
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
### Template (Python)
|
||||||
|
```python
|
||||||
|
def dfs(node, visited=None):
|
||||||
|
if visited is None:
|
||||||
|
visited = set()
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
if node in visited:
|
||||||
|
return
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
visited.add(node)
|
||||||
|
process(node)
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
for neighbor in node.neighbors:
|
||||||
|
dfs(neighbor, visited)
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
return visited
|
||||||
|
```
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
### Real Example: File System Path Finding
|
||||||
|
```python
|
||||||
|
def find_all_paths(start_dir, target_file):
|
||||||
|
"""Find all paths to target file"""
|
||||||
|
paths = []
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
def dfs(current_dir, path):
|
||||||
|
if current_dir.name == target_file:
|
||||||
|
paths.append(path + [current_dir.name])
|
||||||
|
return
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
for subdir in current_dir.subdirectories:
|
||||||
|
dfs(subdir, path + [current_dir.name])
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
dfs(start_dir, [])
|
||||||
|
return paths
|
||||||
|
```
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
## Pattern 9: Dynamic Programming
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
**When to Use:** Optimization, counting problems
|
||||||
|
**Time:** Varies (often O(n²)), **Space:** O(n) or O(n²)
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
### Template (Python)
|
||||||
|
```python
|
||||||
|
def dp_solution(n):
|
||||||
|
# Initialize DP array
|
||||||
|
dp = [0] * (n + 1)
|
||||||
|
dp[0] = base_case
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
# Fill DP array
|
||||||
|
for i in range(1, n + 1):
|
||||||
|
dp[i] = transition(dp[i-1], dp[i-2], ...)
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
return dp[n]
|
||||||
|
```
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
### Real Example: Minimum Venmo Transactions
|
||||||
|
```python
|
||||||
|
def min_transactions(debts):
|
||||||
|
"""Minimum transactions to settle all debts"""
|
||||||
|
# Calculate net balance for each person
|
||||||
|
balance = {}
|
||||||
|
for payer, payee, amount in debts:
|
||||||
|
balance[payer] = balance.get(payer, 0) - amount
|
||||||
|
balance[payee] = balance.get(payee, 0) + amount
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
# Remove zero balances
|
||||||
|
amounts = [v for v in balance.values() if v != 0]
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
def dfs(idx):
|
||||||
|
# Skip settled accounts
|
||||||
|
while idx < len(amounts) and amounts[idx] == 0:
|
||||||
|
idx += 1
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
if idx == len(amounts):
|
||||||
|
return 0
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
min_trans = float('inf')
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
for i in range(idx + 1, len(amounts)):
|
||||||
|
# Try settling idx with i
|
||||||
|
if amounts[idx] * amounts[i] < 0: # Different signs
|
||||||
|
amounts[i] += amounts[idx]
|
||||||
|
min_trans = min(min_trans, 1 + dfs(idx + 1))
|
||||||
|
amounts[i] -= amounts[idx] # Backtrack
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
return min_trans
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
return dfs(0)
|
||||||
|
```
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
## Pattern 10: Backtracking
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
**When to Use:** Generate all combinations, permutations
|
||||||
|
**Time:** Exponential, **Space:** O(n)
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
### Template (Python)
|
||||||
|
```python
|
||||||
|
def backtrack(path, choices):
|
||||||
|
if is_solution(path):
|
||||||
|
result.append(path[:])
|
||||||
|
return
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
for choice in choices:
|
||||||
|
# Make choice
|
||||||
|
path.append(choice)
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
# Recurse
|
||||||
|
backtrack(path, remaining_choices)
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
# Undo choice (backtrack)
|
||||||
|
path.pop()
|
||||||
|
```
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
### Real Example: Slack Channel Combinations
|
||||||
|
```python
|
||||||
|
def generate_team_combinations(members, team_size):
|
||||||
|
"""Generate all possible teams of given size"""
|
||||||
|
teams = []
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
def backtrack(start, current_team):
|
||||||
|
if len(current_team) == team_size:
|
||||||
|
teams.append(current_team[:])
|
||||||
|
return
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
for i in range(start, len(members)):
|
||||||
|
current_team.append(members[i])
|
||||||
|
backtrack(i + 1, current_team)
|
||||||
|
current_team.pop()
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
backtrack(0, [])
|
||||||
|
return teams
|
||||||
|
```
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
## Summary
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Master these 10 core patterns (plus 10 more in advanced practice) and you'll be able to solve 90%+ of LeetCode problems. Focus on:
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
1. **Recognition**: "I've seen this pattern before"
|
||||||
|
2. **Template**: "I know the code structure"
|
||||||
|
3. **Adaptation**: "I can modify for this specific problem"
|
||||||
|
4. **Optimization**: "I can improve time/space complexity"
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Practice each pattern 5-10 times until it becomes second nature!

|
## Problem Statement
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
PROBLEM_DESCRIPTION
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
**Example 1:**
|
||||||
|
```
|
||||||
|
Input: [input_example]
|
||||||
|
Output: [output_example]
|
||||||
|
Explanation: [explanation]
|
||||||
|

|
## Pattern Hint
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
This problem uses the **PATTERN_NAME** pattern.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
**Template:**
|
||||||
|
```python
|
||||||
|
def solve(input):
|
||||||
|
# Pattern-specific template
|
||||||
|
pass
|
||||||
|
```
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
## Approach
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
1. **Brute Force:** O(n²) approach
|
||||||
|
2. **Optimized:** O(n) using PATTERN_NAME
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
## Solution (Python)
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
```python
|
||||||
|
def solution(nums):
|
||||||
|
"""
|
||||||
|
Optimized solution using PATTERN_NAME.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Time: O(n)
|
||||||
|
Space: O(1)
|
||||||
|
"""
|
||||||
|
# Implementation
|
||||||
|
pass
|
||||||
|
```
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
## Solution (TypeScript)
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
```typescript
|
||||||
|
function solution(nums: number[]): number[] {
|
||||||
|
// Implementation
|
||||||
|
}
|
||||||
|
```
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
## Complexity Analysis
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
- **Time:** O(n)
|
||||||
|
- **Space:** O(1)
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
## Follow-up
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
- Can you solve it in one pass?
|
||||||
|
- What if the input is very large?
|
||||||
|

|
||||||
|
3. Code the brute force
|
||||||
|
4. Optimize using the pattern template
|
||||||
|
5. Test with edge cases
