Generate Anagram Substrings - Amazon Top Interview Questions


Problem Statement :


You are given a lowercase alphabet string s. Return all substrings in s where there is another substring in s at a different location that is an anagram. Return the list sorted in lexicographic order.

Constraints

1 ≤ n ≤ 100 where n is the length of s

Example 1

Input

s = "aba"

Output

["a", "a", "ab", "ba"]

Explanation

We have "a" and "a" which are anagrams. Also, "ab" and "ba" are anagrams.

                        Solution in C++ :

vector<string> solve(string s) {
    map<string, vector<int>> mp;
    int i, j, len, n = s.size();
    for (i = 0; i < n; i++) {
        for (len = 0; i + len <= n; len++) {
            string x = s.substr(i, len);
            sort(x.begin(), x.end());
            if (mp.count(x))
                mp[x].emplace_back(i);

Array-DS

An array is a type of data structure that stores elements of the same type in a contiguous block of memory. In an array, A, of size N, each memory location has some unique index, i (where 0<=i<N), that can be referenced as A[i] or Ai. Reverse an array of integers. Note: If you've already solved our C++ domain's Arrays Introduction challenge, you may want to skip this. Example: A=[1,2,3

Dynamic Array

Create a list, seqList, of n empty sequences, where each sequence is indexed from 0 to n-1. The elements within each of the n sequences also use 0-indexing. Create an integer, lastAnswer, and initialize it to 0. There are 2 types of queries that can be performed on the list of sequences: 1. Query: 1 x y a. Find the sequence, seq, at index ((x xor lastAnswer)%n) in seqList.

Left Rotation

A left rotation operation on an array of size n shifts each of the array's elements 1 unit to the left. Given an integer, d, rotate the array that many steps left and return the result.

Sparse Arrays

There is a collection of input strings and a collection of query strings. For each query string, determine how many times it occurs in the list of input strings. Return an array of the results. Example: strings=['ab', 'ab', 'abc'] queries=['ab', 'abc', 'bc'] There are instances of 'ab', 1 of 'abc' and 0 of 'bc'. For each query, add an element to the return array, results=[2,1,0]. Fun

Array Manipulation

Starting with a 1-indexed array of zeros and a list of operations, for each operation add a value to each of the array element between two given indices, inclusive. Once all operations have been performed, return the maximum value in the array. Example: n=10 queries=[[1,5,3], [4,8,7], [6,9,1]] Queries are interpreted as follows: a b k 1 5 3 4 8 7 6 9 1 Add the valu
