No. If you start at any number in a sequence it will find the entire sequence. There is no need to start again at some other number in that sequence. Don On Wednesday, January 29, 2014 12:19:21 AM UTC-5, Varun Sachdeva wrote: If we don't process the same number more than once, does it not

If we don't process the same number more than once, does it not create a situation when we miss out on the solution? For example the digit 6 in this sequence: 1,2,3,4,0,2,3,1,4,5,2,4,3,4,5,6,7,8,9 Varun Varun Sachdeva On 28 January 2014 00:29, Don dondod...@gmail.com wrote: This works, and

Map of STL takes logarithmic time for insertion. Complexity of this approach reduces to the complexity of sorting. We are still stuck at O(n log n). We don't have space to store 10^6 ints or bools. With this memory constraint I think O(n log n) is the best solution. Please prove me wrong. On

Given an array of positive numbers arranged in any order. You have to find the length of longest continuos(difference of +1, -1) sequence in the array. for eg. A[] = *5*, 20, 45, *3*, 98, *4*, 21, *1*, 99, *2* then longest continuos subsequence is [1, 2, 3, 4, 5] and hence the output should be

I think this the most optimized code i have writen : #include iostream #include vector #include map using namespace std; int longest_sequence(vectorint nums) { mapint,bool mp; int count; int max = -; int n = 0; for(unsigned int i = 0; i nums.size(); i++) { mp[nums[i]] = true;

This works, and I think is O(N*log(N)) which is similar to sorting and scanning. An unordered map will be faster, in general. It could be made faster in most cases by looping over items left in the map, to avoid processing the same number more than once. Also, when the number of items left in
