LeetCode - 150 - Word Ladder
The problem A transformation sequence from word beginWord to word endWord using a dictionary wordList is a sequence of words beginWord -> s1 -> s2 -> ... -> sk such that: Every adjacent pair of words differs by a single letter. Every si for 1 <= i <= k is in wordList. Note that beginWord does not need to be in wordList. sk == endWord Given two words, beginWord and endWord, and a dictionary wordList, return the number of words in the shortest transformation sequence from beginWord to endWord, or 0 if no such sequence exists. ...
LeetCode - 150 - Redundant Connection
The problem In this problem, a tree is an undirected graph that is connected and has no cycles. You are given a graph that started as a tree with n nodes labeled from 1 to n, with one additional edge added. The added edge has two different vertices chosen from 1 to n, and was not an edge that already existed. The graph is represented as an array edges of length n where edges[i] = [ai, bi] indicates that there is an edge between nodes ai and bi in the graph. ...
LeetCode - 150 - Course Schedule II
The problem There are a total of numCourses courses you have to take, labeled from 0 to numCourses - 1. You are given an array prerequisites where prerequisites[i] = [ai, bi] indicates that you must take course bi first if you want to take course ai. For example, the pair [0, 1] indicates that to take course 0 you have to first take course 1. Return the ordering of courses you should take to finish all courses. If there are many valid answers, return any of them. If it is impossible to finish all courses, return an empty array. ...
LeetCode - 150 - Surrounded Regions
The problem You are given an m x n matrix board containing letters 'X' and 'O', capture regions that are surrounded: Connect: A cell is connected to adjacent cells horizontally or vertically. Region: To form a region connect every 'O' cell. Surround: The region is surrounded with 'X' cells if you can connect the region with 'X' cells and none of the region cells are on the edge of the board. To capture a surrounded region, replace all 'O's with 'X's in-place within the original board. You do not need to return anything. ...
LeetCode - 150 - Rotting Oranges
The problem You are given an m x n grid where each cell can have one of three values: 0 representing an empty cell, 1 representing a fresh orange, or 2 representing a rotten orange. Every minute, any fresh orange that is 4-directionally adjacent to a rotten orange becomes rotten. Return the minimum number of minutes that must elapse until no cell has a fresh orange. If this is impossible, return -1. ...
