Ninja has been given a number that is represented in the form of a linked list such that each digit corresponds to a node. He has been asked to add 1 to it and return the updated list.

For Example:

1234 is represented as (1 -> 2 -> 3 -> 4) and adding 1 to it should change it to (1 -> 2 -> 3 -> 5).

Note:

The input Linked list does not have any trailing zeros.

You have been given a grid containing some oranges. Each cell of this grid has one of the three integers values:

Value 0 - representing an empty cell.

Value 1 - representing a fresh orange.

Value 2 - representing a rotten orange.

Every second, any fresh orange that is adjacent(4-directionally) to a rotten orange becomes rotten.

Your task is to find out the minimum time after which no cell has a fresh orange. If it's impossible to rot all the fresh oranges then print -1.

Note:

1. The grid has 0-based indexing.
2. A rotten orange can affect the adjacent oranges 4 directionally i.e. Up, Down, Left, Right.

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) ?

You are given a 'N' * 'N' maze with a rat placed at 'MAZE[0][0]'. Find and print all paths that rat can follow to reach its destination i.e. 'MAZE['N' - 1]['N' - 1]'. Rat can move in any direc­tion ( left, right, up and down).

Value of every cell in the 'MAZE' can either be 0 or 1. Cells with value 0 are blocked means the rat can­not enter into those cells and those with value 1 are open.

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.

Implement Trie Data Structure to support these operations:

insert(word) - To insert a string "word" in Trie
search(word) - To check if string "word" is present in Trie or not.
startsWith(word) - To check if there is any string in the Trie that starts with the given prefix string "word".

Three type of queries denote these operations:

Type 1: To insert a string "word" in Trie.
1 word

Type 2: To check if the string "word" is present in Trie or not.
2 word

Type 3: To check if there is any string in the Trie that starts with the given prefix string "word".
3 word
