Check If Two Strings are Anagram

An anagram string is a rearrangement of the letters of a given string to form another word or phrase, using all the original letters exactly once. For example, “listen” and “silent” are string anagrams of each other. In this article, we will be delving into what is anagram string. Problem Statement Given two strings consisting ...

Iterative Inorder Traversal

In the iterative inorder traversal of a binary tree, nodes are visited in the left, root, right sequence without using recursion. This traversal, which uses a stack for managing node sequence, is a key approach in processing binary trees, characterized by their two-node structure. We’ll explore how this method works and analyze its time and ...

What is an Internal Sorting Algorithm?

Any sorting algorithm that uses the main memory exclusively during the sort is known as an internal sorting algorithm. In Internal sorting, the data can be accessed extremely fast and randomly. The internal sorting technique is used when data items are less than enough to be held in the main memory (RAM). Algorithms Used for ...

Preorder to Postorder Traversal

Problem Statement Given an array that represents the preorder traversal of a binary search tree, write a program to find the postorder traversal of the BST. Example The preorder of a BST is given below:preorder[] = {10, 5, 8, 25, 47}The postorder for the example will be:postorder[] = {8, 5, 47, 25, 10} Example Explanation ...

Digit DP

Digit Dp as the name suggests, is a technique of dynamic programming wherein we use the digits of the numbers to reach the final solution. This technique solves those problems which concern the digits between two specified integers. To find the solution, we try building all the integers between the two given integers and compute ...

What is Number System?

A number system, or numeral system, is a method for representing numbers using symbols, crucial in mathematics and programming for data representation. It involves using digits to construct numbers, where each digit’s value is determined by its position and the base value of the system. While computers primarily use the binary system of 0s and 1s, ...

Implementation of Stack using Array

Stacks is a key data structure in modern programming that facilitate efficient software development with Last In First Out (LIFO) principle. Stack is created using one-dimensional arrays. This method involves a ‘top’ variable, which tracks the latest element, ensuring that the last added item is the first to be removed. This article delves into implementing ...

Merge Two Sorted Arrays without Extra Space

Problem Statement Given the sorted arrays nums1[]nums1[] and nums2[]nums2[] of sizes n and m in non-decreasing order. Merge without extra space in sorted, non-decreasing order such that nums1 contains the first n elements, and nums2 contains the last m elements. Example Example Explanation The following two arrays are given : Try to merge two sorted arrays without extra space such that the smallest n elements are present in the first array and the ...

Naive String Matching Algorithm

Problem Statement The problem states that we are given a text string (let’s say text) having the length n and a pattern string (let’s say pattern) having the length m. We need to write a function that takes these two strings (pattern, and text) and prints all the occurrences of the pattern string in the text string. Note: ...
