SDE - 1

Given a string S containing digits from 2 to 9 inclusive. Your task is to find all possible letter combinations that the number could represent.

A mapping from Digits to Letters (just like in Nokia 1100) is shown below. Note that 1 does not map to any letter.

You are given an unweighted directed graph having 'V' vertices and 'E' edges. Your task is to count the number of strongly connected components (SCCs) present in the graph.

A directed graph is said to be strongly connected if every vertex is reachable from every other vertex. The strongly connected components of a graph are the subgraphs which are themselves strongly connected.

Note :

Use zero-based indexing for the vertices.

The given graph doesn’t contain any self-loops.

The gardener wants to water the garden by opening the minimum number of taps. The garden is one-dimensional along the x-axis of length N i.e. the garden starts from point 0 and ends at point N. There are N + 1 tap located at points [0, 1, 2, …, N] in the garden.

You are given an integer N, and an array named “ranges” of size N + 1(0-indexed). The ith tap, if opened, can water the gardener from point (i - ranges[i]) to (i + ranges[i]) including both. The task is to find the minimum number of taps that should be open to water the whole garden, return -1 if the garden can not be watered.
