Virtual Boolean Array - Google Top Interview Questions
Problem Statement :
Implement a boolean array which implements the following methods: BooleanArray() which initializes an array of size 2 ** 31 with all false values. void setTrue(int i) which sets the value at index i to true. void setFalse(int i) which sets the value at index i to false. void setAllTrue() which sets the value at every index to true. void setAllFalse() which sets the value at every index to false. boolean getValue(int i) which returns the value at index i. Constraints 0 ≤ n ≤ 100,000 where n is the number of method calls Example 1 Input methods = ["constructor", "getValue", "setAllTrue", "getValue", "setFalse", "getValue"] arguments = [[], [9], [], [3], [4], [4]]` Output [None, False, None, True, None, False] Explanation a = BooleanArray() a.getValue(9) == False a.setAllTrue() a.getValue(3) == True a.setFalse(4) a.getValue(4) == False Example 2 Input methods = ["constructor", "setTrue", "getValue", "setFalse", "getValue"] arguments = [[], [5], [5], [5], [5]]` Output [None, None, True, None, False] Explanation a = BooleanArray() a.setTrue(5) a.getValue(5) == True a.setFalse(5) a.getValue(5) == False
Solution :
Solution in C++ :
class BooleanArray {
public:
bool base = false;
set<int> diffs;
BooleanArray() {
base = false;
diffs.clear();
}
void setTrue(int i) {
if (base == false)
diffs.insert(i);
else
diffs.erase(i);
}
void setFalse(int i) {
if (base == true)
diffs.insert(i);
else
diffs.erase(i);
}
void setAllTrue() {
base = true;
diffs.clear();
}
void setAllFalse() {
base = false;
diffs.clear();
}
bool getValue(int i) {
return (base == true ? (diffs.count(i) > 0 ? false : true)
: (diffs.count(i) > 0 ? true : false));
}
};
Solution in Java :
import java.util.*;
class BooleanArray {
public Map<Integer, Boolean> map;
public boolean allTrue;
public BooleanArray() {
map = new HashMap<>();
}
public void setTrue(int i) {
map.put(i, true);
}
public void setFalse(int i) {
map.put(i, false);
}
public void setAllTrue() {
map.clear();
allTrue = true;
}
public void setAllFalse() {
map.clear();
allTrue = false;
}
public boolean getValue(int i) {
if (map.containsKey(i))
return map.get(i);
return allTrue;
}
}
Solution in Python :
class BooleanArray:
def __init__(self):
self.arr = {}
self.default = False
def setTrue(self, i):
self.arr[i] = True
def setFalse(self, i):
self.arr[i] = False
def setAllTrue(self):
self.arr = {}
self.default = True
def setAllFalse(self):
self.arr = {}
self.default = False
def getValue(self, i):
if i not in self.arr:
return self.default
return self.arr[i]

Even more compact memory footprint depending upon assignment.
class BooleanArray:
def __init__(self):
self.state = False
self.d = set()
def clear(self):
self.d = set()
def setTrue(self, i):
if not self.state:
self.d.add(i)
elif i in self.d:
self.d.remove(i)
def setFalse(self, i):
if self.state:
self.d.add(i)
elif i in self.d:
self.d.remove(i)
def setAllTrue(self):
self.clear()
self.state = True
def setAllFalse(self):
self.clear()
self.state = False
def getValue(self, i):
if i in self.d:
return not self.state
return self.state

Lazy White Falcon
White Falcon just solved the data structure problem below using heavy-light decomposition. Can you help her find a new solution that doesn't require implementing any fancy techniques? There are 2 types of query operations that can be performed on a tree: 1 u x: Assign x as the value of node u. 2 u v: Print the sum of the node values in the unique path from node u to node v. Given a tree wi

Simon received the board game Ticket to Ride as a birthday present. After playing it with his friends, he decides to come up with a strategy for the game. There are n cities on the map and n - 1 road plans. Each road plan consists of the following: Two cities which can be directly connected by a road. The length of the proposed road. The entire road plan is designed in such a way that if o

Our lazy white falcon finally decided to learn heavy-light decomposition. Her teacher gave an assignment for her to practice this new technique. Please help her by solving this problem. You are given a tree with N nodes and each node's value is initially 0. The problem asks you to operate the following two types of queries: "1 u x" assign x to the value of the node . "2 u v" print the maxim

Andy and Lily love playing games with numbers and trees. Today they have a tree consisting of n nodes and n -1 edges. Each edge i has an integer weight, wi. Before the game starts, Andy chooses an unordered pair of distinct nodes, ( u , v ), and uses all the edge weights present on the unique path from node u to node v to construct a list of numbers. For example, in the diagram below, Andy

White Falcon was amazed by what she can do with heavy-light decomposition on trees. As a resut, she wants to improve her expertise on heavy-light decomposition. Her teacher gave her an another assignment which requires path updates. As always, White Falcon needs your help with the assignment.

A giant library has just been inaugurated this week. It can be modeled as a sequence of N consecutive shelves with each shelf having some number of books. Now, being the geek that you are, you thought of the following two queries which can be performed on these shelves. Change the number of books in one of the shelves. Obtain the number of books on the shelf having the kth rank within the ra
