Advanced Programming Question Set

Question 1: Number of Islands

Given a 2D grid map of '1's (land) and '0's (water), count the number of islands. An island is

surrounded by water and is formed by connecting adjacent lands horizontally or vertically.

Example:

Input: grid = [['1','1','0','0','0'],['1','1','0','0','0'],['0','0','1','0','0'],['0','0','0','1','1']]

Output: 3

Question 2: Subarray Sum Equals K

Given an array of integers nums and an integer k, find the total number of continuous subarrays

whose sum equals to k.

Example:

Input: nums = [1,1,1], k = 2

Output: 2

Question 3: Maximum Subarray

Given an integer array nums, find the contiguous subarray (containing at least one number) which

has the largest sum and return its sum.

Example:

Input: nums = [-2,1,-3,4,-1,2,1,-5,4]

Output: 6 (from subarray [4,-1,2,1])

Question 4: Sort Colors

Given an array nums with n objects colored red, white, or blue, sort them in-place so that objects of

the same color are adjacent, with the colors in the order red, white, and blue. (Use integers 0, 1, and

2 to represent red, white, and blue).

Example:
Input: nums = [2,0,2,1,1,0]

Output: [0,0,1,1,2,2]

Question 5: Group Anagrams

Given an array of strings strs, group the anagrams together. You can return the answer in any order.

Example:

Input: strs = ['eat','tea','tan','ate','nat','bat']

Output: [['eat','tea','ate'],['tan','nat'],['bat']]

Question 6: Spiral Matrix

Given an m x n matrix, return all elements of the matrix in spiral order.

Example:

Input: matrix = [[1,2,3],[4,5,6],[7,8,9]]

Output: [1,2,3,6,9,8,7,4,5]

Question 7: Longest Increasing Subsequence

Given an integer array nums, return the length of the longest strictly increasing subsequence.

Example:

Input: nums = [10,9,2,5,3,7,101,18]

Output: 4 (The longest increasing subsequence is [2,3,7,101])

Question 8: Climbing Stairs

You are climbing a staircase. It takes n steps to reach the top. Each time you can either climb 1 or 2

steps. Find how many distinct ways you can climb to the top.

Example:

Input: n = 3

Output: 3 (ways: [1,1,1], [1,2], [2,1])

Question 9: Find the Duplicate Number


Given an array nums containing n + 1 integers where each integer is between 1 and n (inclusive),

find the duplicate number.

Example:

Input: nums = [1,3,4,2,2]

Output: 2

Question 10: Course Schedule

There are numCourses courses you have to take, labeled from 0 to numCourses - 1. Some courses

have prerequisites. Given prerequisites as an array of pairs, determine if you can finish all courses.

Example:

Input: numCourses = 2, prerequisites = [[1,0]]

Output: true (you can take course 0 first, then course 1)
