Top Interview Questions

251. Flatten 2D Vector

Design an iterator to flatten a 2D vector. It should support the next and hasNext operations.

Implement the Vector2D class:

• Vector2D(int[][] vec) initializes the object with the 2D vector vec.
• next() returns the…

324. Wiggle Sort II

Given an integer array nums, reorder it such that nums[0] < nums[1] > nums[2] < nums[3]....

You may assume the input array always has a valid answer.

Example 1:

Input: nums = [1,5,1,1,6,4]
Output: [1,6,1,5,1,4]…

384. Shuffle an Array

Given an integer array nums, design an algorithm to randomly shuffle the array. All permutations of the array should be equally likely as a result of the shuffling.

Implement the Solution class:

• Solution(int[] nums) Initializes the object…

166. Fraction to Recurring Decimal

Given two integers representing the numerator and denominator of a fraction, return the fraction in string format.

If the fractional part is repeating, enclose the repeating part in parentheses.

378. Kth Smallest Element in a Sorted Matrix

Given an n x n matrix where each of the rows and columns is sorted in ascending order, return the kth smallest element in the matrix.

Note that it is the kth smallest element in the sorted order, not the kth distinct element.

277. Find the Celebrity

Suppose you are at a party with n people labeled from 0 to n - 1 and among them, there may exist one celebrity. The definition of a celebrity is that all the other n - 1 people know the celebrity, but the celebrity does not know any of them.

116. Populating Next Right Pointers in Each Node

285. Inorder Successor in BST

Given the root of a binary search tree and a node p in it, return the in-order successor of that node in the BST. If the given node has no in-order successor in the tree, return null.

454. 4Sum II

Given four integer arrays nums1, nums2, nums3, and nums4 all of length n, return the number of tuples (i, j, k, l) such that:

• 0 <= i, j, k, l < n
• nums1[i] + nums2[j] + nums3[k] + nums4[l] == 0

348. Design Tic-Tac-Toe

Assume the following rules are for the tic-tac-toe game on an n x n board between two players:

1. A move is guaranteed to be valid and is placed on an empty block.
2. Once a winning condition is reached, no more moves are allowed.
