Problem link: http://oj.leetcode.com/problems/gas-station/ We can solve this problem by following algorithm. CompleteCircuit(gas, cost): let n be the number of stations // Check if there exists i such that A[i,n] >= 0 if (sum of gas) > (sum of cost)…

Gas Station There are N gas stations along a circular route, where the amount of gas at station i is gas[i]. You have a car with an unlimited gas tank and it costs cost[i] of gas to travel from station i to its next station (i+1). You begin the journ…

There are N gas stations along a circular route, where the amount of gas at station i is gas[i]. You have a car with an unlimited gas tank and it costs cost[i] of gas to travel from station i to its next station (i+1). You begin the journey with an e…

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…
