Problem Link: http://oj.leetcode.com/problems/lru-cache/ Long long ago, I had a post for implementing the LRU Cache in C++ in my homepage: http://www.cs.uml.edu/~jlu1/doc/codes/lruCache.html So this time, I am trying to use Python to implement a LRU…

Problem Link: http://oj.leetcode.com/problems/interleaving-string/ Given s1, s2, s3, find whether s3 is formed by the interleaving of s1 and s2. For example, Given: s1 = "aabcc", s2 = "dbbca", When s3 = "aadbbcbcac", return t…

Problem link: http://oj.leetcode.com/problems/reverse-words-in-a-string/ Given an input string, reverse the string word by word. For example, Given s = "the sky is blue", return "blue is sky the". LeetCode OJ supports Python now! The s…

Design and implement a data structure for Least Recently Used (LRU) cache. It should support the following operations: get and set. get(key) - Get the value (will always be positive) of the key if the key exists in the cache, otherwise return -1.set(…

Problem Link: https://oj.leetcode.com/problems/validate-binary-search-tree/ We inorder-traverse the tree, and for each node we check if current_node.val > prev_node.val. The code is as follows. # Definition for a binary tree node # class TreeNode: #…

Problem Link: https://oj.leetcode.com/problems/recover-binary-search-tree/ We know that the inorder traversal of a binary search tree should be a sorted array. Therefore, we can compare each node with its previous node in the inorder to find the two…
