题目原文: Decimal dominants. Given an array with n keys, design an algorithm to find all values that occur more than n/10 times. The expected running time of your algorithm should be linear. 分析: 直观上将n个元素遍历一遍,并记录每个元素出现的次数就可以实现,虽然时间复杂度是O(n),但是空间复杂度却高达n,这肯…
题目原文 Selection in two sorted arrays. Given two sorted arrays a[] and b[], of sizes n1 and n2, respectively, design an algorithm to find the kth largest key. The order of growth of the worst case running time of your algorithm should be logn, where n…
题目原文: Nuts and bolts. A disorganized carpenter has a mixed pile of n nuts and n bolts. The goal is to find the corresponding pairs of nuts and bolts. Each nut fits exactly one bolt and each bolt fits exactly one nut. By fitting a nut and a bolt toget…
题目原文: Shuffling a linked list. Given a singly-linked list containing n items, rearrange the items uniformly at random. Your algorithm should consume a logarithmic (or constant) amount of extra memory and run in time proportional to nlogn in the worst…
题目原文: Suppose that the subarray a[0] to a[n-1] is sorted and the subarray a[n] to a[2*n-1] is sorted. How can you merge the two subarrays so that a[0] to a[2*n-1] is sorted using an auxiliary array of length n (instead of 2n) 分析: 对两个大小分别为n的有序子数组进行归并,…
