268. Missing Number

Given an array nums containing n distinct numbers in the range [0, n], return the only number in the range that is missing from the array.


Note: Use Gauss' formula


def missingNumber(self, nums: List[int]):

    n = len(nums)
   
    return n*(n+1)//2 - sum(nums)

347. Top K Frequent Elements

Given an integer array  nums  and an integer  k , return  the   k   most frequent elements . You may return the answer in  any order .   Example: Input: nums = [1,1,1,2,2,3], k = 2 Output: [1,2] def topKFrequent ( self , nums : List [ int ], k : int ):             freq = Counter ( nums )         return heapq . nlargest ( k , freq . keys (), key = freq . get )

849. Maximize Distance to Closest Person

You are given an array representing a row of  seats  where  seats[i] = 1  represents a person sitting in the  i th  seat, and  seats[i] = 0  represents that the  i th  seat is empty  (0-indexed) . There is at least one empty seat, and at least one person sitting. Alex wants to sit in the seat such that the distance between him and the closest person to him is maximized.  Return  that maximum distance to the closest person . def maxDistToClosest ( self , seats : List [ int ]):                     taken = []         for i , occupied in enumerate ( seats ):         if occupied :             taken . append ( i )         S = len ( seats )     T = len ( taken )                 maxDist = max ( taken [ 0 ], S - taken [- 1 ] - 1 ) ...

674. Longest Continuous Increasing Subsequence

Given an unsorted array of integers  nums , return  the length of the longest  continuous increasing subsequence  (i.e. subarray) . The subsequence must be  strictly  increasing. A  continuous increasing subsequence  is defined by two indices  l  and  r  ( l < r ) such that it is  [nums[l], nums[l + 1], ..., nums[r - 1], nums[r]]  and for each  l <= i < r ,  nums[i] < nums[i + 1] . def findLengthOfLCIS ( nums : List [ int ]):         ans = start = 0         for i in range ( len ( nums )):         if i and nums [ i ] <= nums [ i - 1 ]:             start = i         ans = max ( ans , i - start + 1 )             return ans
