Breaking the Records
Problem Statement :
Maria plays college basketball and wants to go pro. Each season she maintains a record of her play. She tabulates the number of times she breaks her season record for most points and least points in a game. Points scored in the first game establish her record for the season, and she begins counting from there. For example, assume her scores for the season are represented in the array scores=[12, 24, 10, 24]. Scores are in the same order as the games played. She would tabulate her results as follows: Count Game Score Minimum Maximum Min Max 0 12 12 12 0 0 1 24 12 24 0 1 2 10 10 24 1 1 3 24 10 24 1 1 Given the scores for a season, find and print the number of times Maria breaks her records for most and least points scored during the season. Function Description Complete the breakingRecords function in the editor below. It must return an integer array containing the numbers of times she broke her records. Index 0 is for breaking most points records, and index 1 is for breaking least points records. breakingRecords has the following parameter(s): scores: an array of integers Input Format The first line contains an integer n, the number of games. The second line contains n space-separated integers describing the respective values of score0, score1, ....., score n-1. Constraints 1 <= n <= `1000 0 <= scores[i] <= `10^8 Output Format Print two space-seperated integers describing the respective numbers of times the best (highest) score increased and the worst (lowest) score decreased.

Huffman coding assigns variable length codewords to fixed length input characters based on their frequencies. More frequent characters are assigned shorter codewords and less frequent characters are assigned longer codewords. All edges along the path to a character contain a code digit. If they are on the left side of the tree, they will be a 0 (zero). If on the right, they'll be a 1 (one). Only t

A binary tree is a tree which is characterized by one of the following properties: It can be empty (null). It contains a root node only. It contains a root node with a left subtree, a right subtree, or both. These subtrees are also binary trees. In-order traversal is performed as Traverse the left subtree. Visit root. Traverse the right subtree. For this in-order traversal, start from

View Solution →Is This a Binary Search Tree?
For the purposes of this challenge, we define a binary tree to be a binary search tree with the following ordering requirements: The data value of every node in a node's left subtree is less than the data value of that node. The data value of every node in a node's right subtree is greater than the data value of that node. Given the root node of a binary tree, can you determine if it's also a
