(referrence: GeeksforGeeks, Kth Largest Element in Array) This is a common algorithm problem appearing in interviews. There are four basic solutions. Solution 1 -- Sort First A Simple Solution is to sort the given array using a O(n log n) sorting alg…

Given a binary search tree, write a function kthSmallest to find the kth smallest element in it. Note: You may assume k is always valid, 1 ≤ k ≤ BST's total elements. Follow up: What if the BST is modified (insert/delete operations) often and you nee…

The trivial way, O(m + n): Merge both arrays and the k-th smallest element could be accessed directly. Merging would require extra space of O(m+n). The linear run time is pretty good, but could we improve it even further? A better way, O(k): There is…

leetcode面试准备:Kth Largest Element in an Array 1 题目 Find the kth largest element in an unsorted array. Note that it is the kth largest element in the sorted order, not the kth distinct element. For example, Given [3,2,1,5,6,4] and k = 2, return 5. Note…

Given a binary search tree, write a function kthSmallest to find the kth smallest element in it. Note: You may assume k is always valid, 1 ≤ k ≤ BST's total elements. Example 1: Input: root = [3,1,4,null,2], k = 1 3 / \ 1 4 \   2 Output: 1 Example 2:…
