Given an array of length N.I need to perform certain operations on this array, these operations are of two types:
Update a range [x...y]: In which we must divide each number in the given range [x...y] by K.(This division is integer division)
Query a range [x...y]: In which we must output the sum of all the numbers presently in range [x...y].
Example : Let say we have N=5 ,K=2 and array is {1,1,1,1,5} .let we have Q(=5) queries as follow :
2 1 5
1 1 2
2 1 5
1 5 5
2 1 5
Then in this Output will be :
9
7
4
Now I know to solve it for smaller number of queries but how to do it if Q and N are large.
I don't get your question precisely.But I understand about querying...
->When you are running multiple queries on inputs like these
For Example:
If you have 1st query in range [2000,10000] and second one in range [2000,4000]
you end up adding these numbers multiple times,which is bad.
->Try using the concept of cumulative frequencies.
Ex:
1. Compute the cumulative sum for all indexes [0...n-1] in Array.
2. Now, When you need sum for a certain query [x...y] then just do
Array[y]-Array[x-1].....which would be direct result.
3. Believe me this would save you lot of computation.
4. This concept is similar to Dynamic Programming(try Googling it!!)

This is a competitive programming problem that it's too early in the morning for me to solve right now, but I can try and give some pointers.
If you were to store the entire array explicitly, it would obviously blow out your memory. But you can exploit the structure of the array to instead store the number of times each entry appears in the array. So if you got the query
1 3 5
then instead of storing [3, 3, 3], you'd store the pair (3, 5), indicating that the number 3 is in the list 5 times.
You can pretty easily build this, perhaps as a vector of pairs of ints that you update.
The remaining task is to implement the 2 query, where you find an element by its index. A side effect of the structure we've chosen is that you can't directly index into that vector of pairs of ints, since the indices in that list don't match up with the indices into the hypothetical array. We could just add up the size of each entry in the vector from the start until we hit the index we want, but that's O(n^2) in the number of queries we've processed so far... likely too slow. Instead, we probably want some updatable data structure for prefix sums—perhaps as described in this answer.
There are N nodes (1 <= N <= 100,000) various positions along a
long one-dimensional length. The ith node is at position x_i (an
integer in the range 0...1,000,000,000) and has a node type b_i(an integer in
the range 1..8). Nodes can not be in the same position
You want to get a range on this one-dimension in which all of the types of nodes are fairly represented. Therefore, you want to ensure that, for whatever types of nodes that are present in the range, there is an equal number of each node type (for example, a range with 27 each of types 1 and 3 is ok, a range with 27 of types 1, 3, and 4 is
ok, but 9 of type 1 and 10 of type 3 is not ok). You also want
at least K (K >= 2) types (out of the 8 total) to be represented in the
rand. Find the maximum size of this range that satisfies the constraints. The size of a photo is the difference between the maximum and minimum positions of the nodes in the photo.
If there are no ranges satisfying the constraints, output -1 instead.
INPUT:
* Line 1: N and K separated by a space
* Lines 2..N+1: Each line contains a description of a node as two
integers separated by a space; x(i) and its node type.
INPUT:
9 2
1 1
5 1
6 1
9 1
100 1
2 2
7 2
3 3
8 3
INPUT DETAILS:
Node types: 1 2 3 - 1 1 2 3 1 - ... - 1
Locations: 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 ... 99 100
OUTPUT:
* Line 1: A single integer indicating the maximum size of a fair
range. If no such range exists, output -1.
OUTPUT:
6
OUTPUT DETAILS:
The range from x = 2 to x = 8 has 2 each of types 1, 2, and 3. The range
from x = 9 to x = 100 has 2 of type 1, but this is invalid because K = 2
and so you need at least 2 distinct types of nodes.
Could You Please help in suggesting some algorithm to solve this. I have thought about using some sort of priority queue or stack data structure, but am really unsure how to proceed.
Thanks, Todd
It's not too difficult to invent almost linear-time algorithm because recently similar problem was discussed on CodeChef: "ABC-Strings".
Sort nodes by their positions.
Prepare all possible subsets of node types (for example, we could expect types 1,2,4,5,7 to be present in resulting interval and all other types not present there). For K=2 there may be only 256-8-1=247 subsets. For each subset perform remaining steps:
Initialize 8 type counters to [0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0].
For each node perform remaining steps:
Increment counter for current node type.
Take L counters for types included to current subset, subtract first of them from other L-1 counters, which produces L-1 values. Take remaining 8-L counters and combine them together with those L-1 values into a tuple of 7 values.
Use this tuple as a key for hash map. If hash map contains no value for this key, add a new entry with this key and value equal to the position of current node. Otherwise subtract value in the hash map from the position of current node and (possibly) update the best result.
Given an N x M matrix having only positive integer values, we have to nullify the matrix
i.e make all entries 0.
We are given two operations
1) multiply each element of any one column at a time by 2.
2) Subtract 1 from all elements of any one row at a time
Find the minimum number of operations required to nullify the matrix.
i thought of doing something related to LCM but could not reach to a solution
Let's first solve for 1 row first and we can extend it to all rows. Let's take a random example:
6 11 5 13
The goal is to make all elements as 1. First we make 5 (smallest element) as 1. For this we need to subtract 4 (i.e subtract 1 four times). The resultant array is:
2 7 1 9
Now we multiply 1 with 2 and subtract all row elements by 1:
1 6 1 8
Next, we multiply 2 1's by 2 and subtract all row elements by 1:
1 5 1 7
Continuing in this manner, we get to 1 1 1 1. Now we subtract 1 to get 0 0 0 0.
Next, we get to other rows and do the same like above. The row we nullified above are all zeroes so multiplication by 2 when manipulating other rows doesn't change the already nullified rows.
The question of finding the minimum number of operations would also depend on the row sequence we select. I think that would be to select a row whose maximum is minimum (among other rows) first. I need to verify this.
This is my code:
data INDAT8; set INDAT6;
Array myarray{24,27};
goodgroups=0;
do i=2 to 24 by 2;
do j=2 to 27;
if myarray[i,j] gt 1 then myarray[i+1,j] = 'bad';
else if myarray[i,j] eq 1 and myarray[i+1,j] = 1 then myarray[i+1,j]= 'good';
end;
end;
run;
proc print data=INDAT8;
run;
Problem:
I have the data in this format- it is just an example: n=2
X Y info
2 1 good
2 4 bad
3 2 good
4 1 bad
4 4 good
6 2 good
6 3 good
Now, the above data is in sorted manner (total 7 rows). I need to make a group of 2 , 3 or 4 rows separately and generate a graph. In the above data, I made a group of 2 rows. The third row is left alone as there is no other column in 3rd row to form a group. A group can be formed only within the same row. NOT with other rows.
Now, I will check if both the rows have “good” in the info column or not. If both rows have “good” – the group formed is also good , otherwise bad. In the above example, 3rd /last group is “good” group. Rest are all bad group. Once I’m done with all the rows, I will calculate the total no. of Good groups formed/Total no. of groups.
In the above example, the output will be: Total no. of good groups/Total no. of groups => 1/3.
This is the case of n=2(size of group)
Now, for n=3, we make group of 3 rows and for n=4, we make a group of 4 rows and find the good /bad groups in a similar way. If all the rows in a group has “good” block—the result is good block, otherwise bad.
Example: n= 3
2 1 good
2 4 bad
2 6 good
3 2 good
4 1 good
4 4 good
4 6 good
6 2 good
6 3 good
In the above case, I left the 4th row and last 2 rows as I can’t make group of 3 rows with them. The first group result is “bad” and last group result is “good”.
Output: 1/ 2
For n= 4:
2 1 good
2 4 good
2 6 good
2 7 good
3 2 good
4 1 good
4 4 good
4 6 good
6 2 good
6 3 good
6 4 good
6 5 good
In this case, I make a group of 4 and finds the result. The 5th,6th,7th,8th row are left behind or ignored. I made 2 groups of 4 rows and both are “good” blocks.
Output: 2/2
So, After getting 3 output values from n=2 , n-3, and n=4 I will plot a graph of these values.
If you can help in any any language using array, if and do loop. it would be great.
I can change my code accordingly.
Update:
The answer for this doesn't have to be in sas. Since it is more algorithm-related than anything, I will accept suggestions in any language as long as they show how to accomplish this using arrays and do.
I am having trouble understanding your problem statement, but from what I can gather here is what I can suggest:
Place data into bins and the process the summary data.
Implementation 1
Assumption: You don't know what the range of the first column will be or distriution will be sparse
Create a hash table. The Key will be the item you are doing your grouping on. The value will be the count seen so far.
Proces each record. If the key already exists, increment the count (value for that key in the hash). Otherwise add the key and set the value to 1.
Continue until you have processed all records
Count the number of keys in the hash table and the number of values that are greater than your threshold.
Implementation 2
Assumption: You know the range of the first column and the distriution is reasonably dense
Create an array of integers with enough elements so the index can match the column value. Initialize all elements to zero. This array will hold your count for each item you are grouping on
Process each record. Examine value of first column. Increment corresponding index in array. (So if you have "2 1 good", do groupCount[2]++)
Continue until you have processed all records
Walk each element in the array. Count how many items are non zero (meaning they appeared at least once) and how many items meet your threshold.
You can use the same approach for gathering the good and bad counts.
I have a matrice with some number:
1 2 3 6
6 7 2 1
1 4 5 6
And the program should display all different number with own frequency for example:
1 -> 3
2 -> 2
3 -> 1
4 -> 1
5 -> 1
6 -> 3
7 -> 1
Please help me
You probably mean
1->3
Create vector (array), filled with zeros, that have size of max value in matrice (like [0..9]), travell by whole matrice and with every step increment index of vector that equals actual number.
This is soluction for short range values in matrice. If you excpect some big values, use joined list insted of vector, or matrice like this for counting:
1 0
5 0
15 0
142 0
2412 0
And increment values in second column and expand this matrice rows every time you find a new number.
Using pointers this problem reduces from matrix to a single dimensional array. Maintain a 1D array whose size is equal to the total no. of elements in the matrix, say it COUNT. Initialize it with zero. Now start with first element of the matrix and compare it with all the other elements. If we use pointers this problem transforms into traversing a 1D array and finding the no of occurrences of each element. For traversing all you have to do is just increment the pointer. While comparing when you encounter the same number just shift forward all the consecutive numbers one place ahead. For example, if 0th element is 1 and you again found 1 on 4th index, then shift forward element on 5th index to 4th, 6th to 5th and so on till the last element. This way the duplicate entry at 4th index is lost. Now decrease the count of total no of elements in the matrix by 1 and increase the corresponding entry in array COUNT by 1. Continuing this way till the last element we get a matrix with distinct nos. and their corresponding frequency in array COUNT.
This implementation is very effective for languages which support pointers.
Here's an example of how it could be done in Python.
The dict is of this format: {key:value, key2:value2}. So you can use that so you have something like {'2':3} so it'll tell you what number has how many occurances. (I'm not assuming you're going to use Python. It's just so you understand the code... maybe)
matrix = [[1,5,6],
[2,6,3],
[5,3,9]]
dict = {}
for row in matrix:
for column in row:
if str(column) in dict.keys():
dict[str(column)] += 1
else:
dict[str(column)] = 1
for key in sorted(dict.keys()):
print key, '->', dict[key]
I hope you can figure out what this does. This codepad shows the output and nice syntax hightlighting.
