This problem asks us to return all possible subsets of a given set of distinct integers. For example, if the input is [1,2,3], then the output should be all possible subsets of those integers: [1], [1,2], [1,2,3], [1,3], [2], [2,3], and [3].
About this solution: The candidate's solution is complete and solves the problem. The approach is to generate all subsets by iterating through the input array and adding each element to all existing subsets.
This problem asks you to write a function that returns all possible permutations of a given string. For example, given the input string "abc", the function should return the following six permutations : "abc", "acb", "bac", "bca", "cab", and "cba".
About this solution: This solution is complete and solves the problem. The approach is to generate all permutations by looping through the characters in the string and then recursively generating all permutations of the remaining characters.
Given a 2D array of integers, this algorithm finds the length of the longest path of consecutive numbers that can be formed in the array. The path can start and end at any position in the array.
About this solution: The candidate's solution correctly uses a DFS algorithm to find the longest path in the array. The algorithm is optimal because it only needs to traverse the array once. However, there are a few errors in the implementation of the DFS function. First, the base case should check if the current element is out of bounds or if the current element is already visited. Second, the path variable should be initialized to 1 before the recursive call. Third, the DFS function should return the path variable after the recursive call. Fourth, the visited array should be reset after the DFS call.
Given a set of distinct integers, this algorithm will return all possible subsets of those integers.
About this solution: The candidate's solution is a recursive function that takes in the input array and the current subset. The function iterates through the input array and adds each element to the current subset. It then calls itself with the input array and the new subset. The function also calls itself with the input array and the current subset. This allows the function to create all possible subsets. The function returns a list of all possible subsets. The function also adds the empty set to the list of subsets.
The solution is correct and solves the problem. The approach is good, but could be more concise. For example, the helper function could be written as:
def helper(nums, subset):
subsets = []
for i in range(len(nums)):
new_subset = subset + [nums[i]]
subsets.append(new_subset)
subsets += helper(nums[i+1:], new_subset)
return subsets
Given a set of distinct integers, this algorithm returns all possible subsets. The subsets must be in non-descending order, and the solution set must not contain duplicate subsets.
About this solution: The candidate's solution is correct and solves the problem. The approach is to first sort the given set, then create all possible subsets by iterating through the set and adding each element to all existing subsets.
Given a set of distinct integers, this algorithm will return all possible subsets. For example, if the input is [1,2,3], the output will be [[],[1],[ 2],[3],[1,2],[1,3],[2,3],[1,2,3]].
About this solution: This is a great solution! It is complete, and correctly solves the problem. The approach is also very elegant.
