You live in a Ninja town which is in the form of a N * M grid. In this town, people travel from one place to another by jumping over the buildings which are present in each cell of the grid. It is Christmas eve, and Santa wants to give gifts and chocolates to the kids who live in the building which is present at the cell (N - 1, M - 1). Initially, Santa is present on cell (0, 0). Since Santa is in a hurry, help him find a path from starting point to the endpoint with the least amount of time.

The Santa may go only from one building to any of its adjacent buildings which is present either to the right or to the bottom or bottom right cell i.e. if the current position is (x, y), he may go to (x + 1, y + 1) or (x + 1, y) or (x, y + 1) given that the new coordinates are in the grid. The time taken to reach from one building to another is equal to the absolute difference between the heights of buildings.

Note:

1. The heights of the buildings are positive.
2. Santa starts from the cell (0, 0) and he has to reach the building (N - 1, M - 1).
3. Santa cannot leave the grid at any point of time.

Aahad and Harshit always have fun by solving problems. Harshit took a sorted array consisting of distinct integers and rotated it clockwise by an unknown amount. For example, he took a sorted array = [1, 2, 3, 4, 5] and if he rotates it by 2, then the array becomes: [4, 5, 1, 2, 3].

After rotating a sorted array, Aahad needs to answer Q queries asked by Harshit, each of them is described by one integer Q[i]. which Harshit wanted him to search in the array. For each query, if he found it, he had to shout the index of the number, otherwise, he had to shout -1.

For each query, you have to complete the given method where 'key' denotes Q[i]. If the key exists in the array, return the index of the 'key', otherwise, return -1.

Note:

Can you solve each query in O(logN) ?

Given a binary tree having a positive integer written on each of its nodes. Your task is to find the vertical sum of node values i.e. the sum of nodes that can be connected by a vertical line.

A binary tree is a tree in which each parent node has at most two children.

For example:

Consider the following Binary Tree:

So the final answer is
12 9 11 6

You are given a Binary Tree of 'n' nodes.

The Top view of the binary tree is the set of nodes visible when we see the tree from the top.

Find the top view of the given binary tree, from left to right.

Example :

Input: Let the binary tree be:

Output: [10, 4, 2, 1, 3, 6]

Explanation: Consider the vertical lines in the figure. The top view contains the topmost node from each vertical line.

Ninja is learning a new but strange language known as Alien Language. Alien language possesses the same alphabets as of English language, but their order is different. The order of letters are given as ‘ORDER’ string. Ninja has ‘N’ words in the ‘WORDS’ array. Ninja’s task is to check whether the words of ‘WORDS’ are sorted lexicographically in this alien language or not.

Note: ‘ORDER’ consists of all 26 letters of English alphabet.

For Example

If ‘WORDS’ = ["word","world","row"], ‘ORDER’ = "worldabcefghijkmnpqstuvxyz",the answer will be ‘NO’ as first and second words are not lexicographically sorted as ‘l’ comes before ‘d’ in alien language.

You are given a Singly Linked List of integers. Return true if it has a cycle, else return false.

A cycle occurs when a node's next points back to a previous node in the list.

Example:

In the given linked list, there is a cycle, hence we return true.

You are given an array of 'N' integers, and a positive integer 'K'. You need to determine if it is possible to divide the array into 'K' non-empty subsets such that the sum of elements of each subset is equal.

Note:

1. The array can have duplicate elements.

2. Each of the array elements must belong to exactly one of the 'K' subsets.

3. The elements chosen for a subset may not be contiguous in the array.
