C# || How To Find The Largest Component Size By Common Factor Using C#

November 28, 2021 admin No comments

The following is a module with functions which demonstrates how to find the largest component size by common factor using C#.

1. Largest Component Size – Problem Statement

You are given an integer array of unique positive integers nums. Consider the following graph:

There are nums.length nodes, labeled nums[0] to nums[nums.length – 1],
There is an undirected edge between nums[i] and nums[j] if nums[i] and nums[j] share a common factor greater than 1.

Return the size of the largest connected component in the graph.

Example 1:

Input: nums = [4,6,15,35] Output: 4

Example 2:

Input: nums = [20,50,9,63] Output: 2

Example 3:

Input: nums = [2,3,6,7,4,12,21,39] Output: 8

2. Largest Component Size – Solution

The following is a solution which demonstrates how to find the largest component size by common factor.

The following solution uses a union find set to group connections together.

C# || Accounts Merge – How To Merge A List Of Emails Using C#

November 28, 2021 admin No comments

The following is a module with functions which demonstrates how to merge a list of emails using C#.

1. Accounts Merge – Problem Statement

Given a list of accounts where each element accounts[i] is a list of strings, where the first element accounts[i][0] is a name, and the rest of the elements are emails representing emails of the account.

Now, we would like to merge these accounts. Two accounts definitely belong to the same person if there is some common email to both accounts. Note that even if two accounts have the same name, they may belong to different people as people could have the same name. A person can have any number of accounts initially, but all of their accounts definitely have the same name.

After merging the accounts, return the accounts in the following format: the first element of each account is the name, and the rest of the elements are emails in sorted order. The accounts themselves can be returned in any order.

Example 1:

Input: accounts = [["John","johnsmith@mail.com","john_newyork@mail.com"],["John","johnsmith@mail.com","john00@mail.com"],["Mary","mary@mail.com"],["John","johnnybravo@mail.com"]] Output: [["John","john00@mail.com","john_newyork@mail.com","johnsmith@mail.com"],["Mary","mary@mail.com"],["John","johnnybravo@mail.com"]] Explanation: The first and second John's are the same person as they have the common email "johnsmith@mail.com". The third John and Mary are different people as none of their email addresses are used by other accounts. We could return these lists in any order, for example the answer [['Mary', 'mary@mail.com'], ['John', 'johnnybravo@mail.com'], ['John', 'john00@mail.com', 'john_newyork@mail.com', 'johnsmith@mail.com']] would still be accepted.

Example 2:

Input: accounts = [["Gabe","Gabe0@m.co","Gabe3@m.co","Gabe1@m.co"],["Kevin","Kevin3@m.co","Kevin5@m.co","Kevin0@m.co"],["Ethan","Ethan5@m.co","Ethan4@m.co","Ethan0@m.co"],["Hanzo","Hanzo3@m.co","Hanzo1@m.co","Hanzo0@m.co"],["Fern","Fern5@m.co","Fern1@m.co","Fern0@m.co"]] Output: [["Ethan","Ethan0@m.co","Ethan4@m.co","Ethan5@m.co"],["Gabe","Gabe0@m.co","Gabe1@m.co","Gabe3@m.co"],["Hanzo","Hanzo0@m.co","Hanzo1@m.co","Hanzo3@m.co"],["Kevin","Kevin0@m.co","Kevin3@m.co","Kevin5@m.co"],["Fern","Fern0@m.co","Fern1@m.co","Fern5@m.co"]]
