1. Palindromic Substrings

You have been given a string STR. Your task is to find the total number of palindromic substrings of STR.

Example :
If the input string is "abbc", then all the possible palindromic substrings would be: ["a", "b", "b", c", "bb"] and hence, the output will be 5 since we have 5 substrings in total which form a palindrome.
Note :
A string is said to be a 'Palindrome' if it is read the same forwards and backwards. 
For example, “abba” is a palindrome, but “abbc” is not.

A 'Substring' is a contiguous sequence of characters within a string. 
For example, "a", "b", "c", "ab", "bc", "abc" are substrings of "abc".

You are given an array ‘ARR’ of size ‘N’ containing each number between 1 and ‘N’ - 1 at least once. There is a single integer value that is present in the array twice. Your task is to find the duplicate integer value present in the array.

For example:

Consider ARR = [1, 2, 3, 4, 4], the duplicate integer value present in the array is 4. Hence, the answer is 4 in this case.
Note :
A duplicate number is always present in the given array.

1. Validate Binary Tree Nodes

You are given ‘N’ binary tree nodes numbered from 0 to N - 1 where node ‘i’ has two children LEFT_CHILD[i] and RIGHT_CODE[i]. Return ‘True’ if and only if all the given nodes form exactly one valid binary tree. If node ‘i’ has no left child then 'LEFT_CHILD[i]' will equal -1, similarly for the right child.

Example:

Let’s say we have n=4 nodes, 'LEFT_CHILD' = {1, -1, 3, -1} and 
RIGHT_CHILD = {2, -1, -1, -1}. So the resulting tree will look like this:

It will return True as there is only one valid binary tree and each node has only one parent and there is only one root.

2. Relative Sorting

Given two arrays ‘ARR’ and ‘BRR’ of size ‘N’ and ‘M’ respectively. Your task is to sort the elements of ‘ARR’ in such a way that the relative order among the elements will be the same as those are in ‘BRR’. For the elements not present in ‘BRR’, append them in the last in sorted order.

For example

Consider the arrays as ARR = { 9, 5, 8, 4, 6, 5 } and BRR = { 8, 4, 5 }
The output for the above example  is { 8, 4, 5, 5, 6, 9 }.

Note:

Elements of ‘BRR’ are non repeating.
