it is (2,4] not [2,4]. open interval, close interval ......... consider (i,j] as [i+1,j]
because a[i] = sum of values from 0 to i and a[j] = sum of values from 0 to j if a[i] = a[j] then it means sum does not changes between a[i] to a[j] so from i+1 to j there are equal no of 1's and -1's or in other words equal no of 0's and 1's On Sat, Jul 2, 2011 at 12:42 AM, Anika Jain <anika.jai...@gmail.com> wrote: > @sunny: in a[2,4] has 2 1s and one 0 then how is it a solution? i mean i > didnt get wen a[i]==a[j] then a[i,j] is a solution case.. > > On Fri, Jul 1, 2011 at 4:13 PM, sunny agrawal <sunny816.i...@gmail.com>wrote: > >> Take an array of size of the length of the string. >> fill the array positions with one where string contains 1, and -1 where it >> is 0 >> >> Now for each i (1,n-1) perform the following operation >> a[i] = a[i-1] + a[i] >> now a[i] will contains sum of values from a[0] to a[i] in original array. >> >> Now only thing remains to find is two indexes in this array such that a[i] >> = a[j] >> where ever this condition is met ( i,j ] is a solution >> >> or if for some i a[i] = 0 in this case [0,i] will be a solution >> >> this can be done using hashing >> hash the values in the array of size 2*n+1. as range of values is -n to n >> and keep track of max interval. >> >> >> >> >> On Fri, Jul 1, 2011 at 3:22 PM, Anantha Krishnan < >> ananthakrishnan....@gmail.com> wrote: >> >>> Given a string containing 0's and 1's.
