Set.add() Python
Problem Statement :
If we want to add a single element to an existing set, we can use the .add() operation.
It adds the element to the set and returns 'None'.
Example
>>> s = set('HackerRank')
>>> s.add('H')
>>> print s
set(['a', 'c', 'e', 'H', 'k', 'n', 'r', 'R'])
>>> print s.add('HackerRank')
None
>>> print s
set(['a', 'c', 'e', 'HackerRank', 'H', 'k', 'n', 'r', 'R'])
Task:
Apply your knowledge of the .add() operation to help your friend Rupal.
Rupal has a huge collection of country stamps. She decided to count the total number of distinct country stamps in her collection. She asked for your help. You pick the stamps one by one from a stack of N country stamps.
Find the total number of distinct country stamps.
Input Format:
The first line contains an integer N, the total number of country stamps.
The next N lines contains the name of the country where the stamp is from.
Constraints:
0<N<1000
Output Format:
Output the total number of distinct country stamps on a single line.
Solution :
Solution in C :
s = set()
for i in range(int(input())):
s.add(input())
print(len(s))

Print in Reverse
Given a pointer to the head of a singly-linked list, print each data value from the reversed list. If the given list is empty, do not print anything. Example head* refers to the linked list with data values 1->2->3->Null Print the following: 3 2 1 Function Description: Complete the reversePrint function in the editor below. reversePrint has the following parameters: Sing
View Solution →Reverse a linked list
Given the pointer to the head node of a linked list, change the next pointers of the nodes so that their order is reversed. The head pointer given may be null meaning that the initial list is empty. Example: head references the list 1->2->3->Null. Manipulate the next pointers of each node in place and return head, now referencing the head of the list 3->2->1->Null. Function Descriptio
View Solution →Compare two linked lists
You’re given the pointer to the head nodes of two linked lists. Compare the data in the nodes of the linked lists to check if they are equal. If all data attributes are equal and the lists are the same length, return 1. Otherwise, return 0. Example: list1=1->2->3->Null list2=1->2->3->4->Null The two lists have equal data attributes for the first 3 nodes. list2 is longer, though, so the lis
