Set - Google Top Interview Questions
Problem Statement :
Implement a set data structure with the following methods: CustomSet() constructs a new instance of a set add(int val) adds val to the set exists(int val) returns whether val exists in the set remove(int val) removes the val in the set This should be implemented without using built-in set. Constraints n ≤ 100,000 where n is the number of calls to add, exists and remove Example 1 Input methods = ["constructor", "add", "exists", "remove", "exists"] arguments = [[], [1], [1], [1], [1]]` Output [None, None, True, None, False] Explanation c = CustomSet() c.add(1) c.exists(1) == True c.remove(1) c.exists(1) == False
Solution :
Solution in C++ :
class CustomSet {
int S = 1e3;
vector<list<int>> v;
hash<int> hs;
public:
CustomSet() {
v.resize(S);
}
void add(int val) {
if (exists(val)) return;
int id = hs(val) % S;
v[id].push_back(val);
}
bool exists(int val) {
int id = hs(val) % S;
for (int x : v[id]) {
if (x == val) return true;
}
return false;
}
void remove(int val) {
int id = hs(val) % S;
for (auto it = v[id].begin(); it != v[id].end(); it++) {
if (*it == val) {
v[id].erase(it);
return;
}
}
}
};
Solution in Java :
import java.util.*;
class CustomSet {
ArrayList<Integer>[] buckets;
int T;
public CustomSet() {
T = 300;
buckets = new ArrayList[T];
}
public void add(int val) {
if (!exists(val)) {
buckets[map(val)].add(val);
}
}
public boolean exists(int val) {
int m = map(val);
if (buckets[m] == null)
buckets[m] = new ArrayList<Integer>();
return buckets[m].contains(val);
}
public void remove(int val) {
if (exists(val))
buckets[map(val)].remove(Integer.valueOf(val));
}
public int map(int val) {
return ((val % T) + T) % T;
}
}
Solution in Python :
class ListNode:
def __init__(self, val):
self.val = val
self.next = None
class CustomSet:
def __init__(self):
self.mod = 2069 # any large prime number
self.lst = [None] * self.mod
def add(self, val):
hashkey = val % self.mod
if not self.lst[hashkey]:
self.lst[hashkey] = ListNode(val)
else:
curr = self.lst[hashkey]
while curr.next:
if curr.val == val:
return
curr = curr.next
if curr.val == val:
return
curr.next = ListNode(val)
def exists(self, val):
hashkey = val % self.mod
if self.lst[hashkey]:
curr = self.lst[hashkey]
while curr:
if curr.val == val:
return True
curr = curr.next
return False
def remove(self, val):
hashkey = val % self.mod
if self.lst[hashkey]:
curr = self.lst[hashkey]
if curr.val == val:
self.lst[hashkey] = curr.next
return
while curr.next:
if curr.next.val == val:
curr.next = curr.next.next
return
curr = curr.next

Cube Summation
You are given a 3-D Matrix in which each block contains 0 initially. The first block is defined by the coordinate (1,1,1) and the last block is defined by the coordinate (N,N,N). There are two types of queries. UPDATE x y z W updates the value of block (x,y,z) to W. QUERY x1 y1 z1 x2 y2 z2 calculates the sum of the value of blocks whose x coordinate is between x1 and x2 (inclusive), y coor

Enter-View ( EV ) is a linear, street-like country. By linear, we mean all the cities of the country are placed on a single straight line - the x -axis. Thus every city's position can be defined by a single coordinate, xi, the distance from the left borderline of the country. You can treat all cities as single points. Unfortunately, the dictator of telecommunication of EV (Mr. S. Treat Jr.) do

A subsequence of a sequence is a sequence which is obtained by deleting zero or more elements from the sequence. You are given a sequence A in which every element is a pair of integers i.e A = [(a1, w1), (a2, w2),..., (aN, wN)]. For a subseqence B = [(b1, v1), (b2, v2), ...., (bM, vM)] of the given sequence : We call it increasing if for every i (1 <= i < M ) , bi < bi+1. Weight(B) =

A cricket match is going to be held. The field is represented by a 1D plane. A cricketer, Mr. X has N favorite shots. Each shot has a particular range. The range of the ith shot is from Ai to Bi. That means his favorite shot can be anywhere in this range. Each player on the opposite team can field only in a particular range. Player i can field from Ci to Di. You are given the N favorite shots of M

Jim has invented a new flying object called HZ42. HZ42 is like a broom and can only fly horizontally, independent of the environment. One day, Jim started his flight from Dubai's highest skyscraper, traveled some distance and landed on another skyscraper of same height! So much fun! But unfortunately, new skyscrapers have been built recently. Let us describe the problem in one dimensional space
