New Year Chaos
Problem Statement :
It is New Year's Day and people are in line for the Wonderland rollercoaster ride. Each person wears a sticker indicating their initial position in the queue from 1 to n. Any person can bribe the person directly in front of them to swap positions, but they still wear their original sticker. One person can bribe at most two others. Determine the minimum number of bribes that took place to get to a given queue order. Print the number of bribes, or, if anyone has bribed more than two people, print Too chaotic. Function Description Complete the function minimumBribes in the editor below. minimumBribes has the following parameter(s): int q[n]: the positions of the people after all bribes Returns No value is returned. Print the minimum number of bribes necessary or Too chaotic if someone has bribed more than 2 people. Input Format The first line contains an integer t, the number of test cases. Each of the next t pairs of lines are as follows: - The first line contains an integer t, the number of people in the queue - The second line has n space-separated integers describing the final state of the queue. Constraints 1 <= t <= 10 1 <= n <= 10^5 Sample Input STDIN Function ----- -------- 2 t = 2 5 n = 5 2 1 5 3 4 q = [2, 1, 5, 3, 4] 5 n = 5 2 5 1 3 4 q = [2, 5, 1, 3, 4] Sample Output 3 Too chaotic

Self Balancing Tree
An AVL tree (Georgy Adelson-Velsky and Landis' tree, named after the inventors) is a self-balancing binary search tree. In an AVL tree, the heights of the two child subtrees of any node differ by at most one; if at any time they differ by more than one, rebalancing is done to restore this property. We define balance factor for each node as : balanceFactor = height(left subtree) - height(righ

The median M of numbers is defined as the middle number after sorting them in order if M is odd. Or it is the average of the middle two numbers if M is even. You start with an empty number list. Then, you can add numbers to the list, or remove existing numbers from it. After each add or remove operation, output the median. Input: The first line is an integer, N , that indicates the number o

A bracket is considered to be any one of the following characters: (, ), {, }, [, or ]. Two brackets are considered to be a matched pair if the an opening bracket (i.e., (, [, or {) occurs to the left of a closing bracket (i.e., ), ], or }) of the exact same type. There are three types of matched pairs of brackets: [], {}, and (). A matching pair of brackets is not balanced if the set of bra
View Solution →Equal Stacks
ou have three stacks of cylinders where each cylinder has the same diameter, but they may vary in height. You can change the height of a stack by removing and discarding its topmost cylinder any number of times. Find the maximum possible height of the stacks such that all of the stacks are exactly the same height. This means you must remove zero or more cylinders from the top of zero or more of
