Leetcode - Episode 5 - Fastest Solutions Yet (3x E)

Title refers to my runtime rankings against other users not how long it took me to complete these. Ran into a couple of stubborn bugs, one of which was failing to read the question properly because I jumped ahead - doh.

Uncommon Words from Two Sentences

Problem: Return the uncommon words from two sentences A and B

Note: a word is uncommon if it appears no more than once in either string.

This solution works regardless of the amount of sentences given. Thinking about finding uncommon words in just two sentences seems like a O(n^2) trap.

from collections import Counter
class Solution(object):
    def uncommonFromSentences(self, A, B):
        """
        :type A: str
        :type B: str
        :rtype: List[str]
        """
        word_counter = Counter()
        for word in A.split(' ') + B.split(' '):
            word_counter[word] += 1

        uncommon_words = []
        for key, val in word_counter.items():
            if val == 1:
                uncommon_words.append(key)
        
        return uncommon_words

Add all words to a Counter Dictionary, return the words with a value of 1.

Runtime complexity: O(n).

Space complexity: O(n).

Search in a Binary Search Tree

Problem: Search a Binary Tree.

My solution is a recursive search.

# Definition for a binary tree node.
# class TreeNode(object):
#     def __init__(self, x):
#         self.val = x
#         self.left = None
#         self.right = None

class Solution(object):
    def searchBST(self, root, val):
        """
        :type root: TreeNode
        :type val: int
        :rtype: TreeNode
        """
        if not root:
            return None
        if root.val == val:
            return root
        elif val < root.val:
            return self.searchBST(root.left, val)
        
        return self.searchBST(root.right, val)

Runtime complexity: O(log n).

Spacetime complexity: -.

Nothing complicated to see here.

Fizz Buzz

Problem: Implement the infamous FizzBuzz algorithm.

This was my first time 'solving' this in Python. I almost forgot about having to shift the iteration range (1-100 instead of 0-99).

class Solution:
    def fizzBuzz(self, n):
        """
        :type n: int
        :rtype: List[str]
        """
        str_reps = []
        
        for i in range(1, n+1):
            if i % 3 == 0 and i % 5 == 0:
                str_reps.append('FizzBuzz')
            elif i % 3 == 0:
                str_reps.append('Fizz')
            elif i % 5 == 0:
                str_reps.append('Buzz')
            else:
                str_reps.append(str(i))
        
        return str_reps

Runtime complexity: O(n).

Spacetime complexity: -.
