You’re given an array 'arr' of size 'n' and an integer 'k'.

Your task is to split 'arr' into 'k' sub-arrays such that the maximum sum achieved from the 'k' subarrays formed must be the minimum possible.

A subarray is a contiguous part of the array.

Return the minimum possible value of the maximum sum obtained after splitting the array into 'k' partitions.

Example:

Input: ‘arr’ = [1, 1, 2] and ‘k’ = 2 

Output: 2

Explanation: If we want to make two subarrays, there are two possibilities: [[1], [1, 2]] and [[1, 1], [2]]. We can see that the maximum sum of any subarray is minimized in the second case. Hence, the answer is 2, which is the maximum sum of any subarray in [[1, 1], [2]].

Bob lives with his wife in a city named Berland. Bob is a good husband, so he goes out with his wife every Friday to ‘Arcade’ mall.

‘Arcade’ is a very famous mall in Berland. It has a very unique transportation method between shops. Since the shops in the mall are laying in a straight line, you can jump on a very advanced trampoline from the shop i, and land in any shop between (i) to (i + Arr[i]), where Arr[i] is a constant given for each shop.

There are N shops in the mall, numbered from 0 to N-1. Bob's wife starts her shopping journey from shop 0 and ends it in shop N-1. As the mall is very crowded on Fridays, unfortunately, Bob gets lost from his wife. So he wants to know, what is the minimum number of trampoline jumps from shop 0 he has to make in order to reach shop N-1 and see his wife again. If it is impossible to reach the last shop, return -1.

You are given an array 'ARR' of integers of length N. Your task is to find the next smaller element for each of the array elements.

Next Smaller Element for an array element is the first element to the right of that element which has a value strictly smaller than that element.

If for any array element the next smaller element does not exist, you should print -1 for that array element.

For Example:

If the given array is [ 2, 3, 1], we need to return [1, 1, -1]. Because for  2, 1 is the Next Smaller element. For 3, 1 is the Next Smaller element and for 1, there is no next smaller element hence the answer for this element is -1.

You are given an array/list ARR consisting of N integers. Your task is to find all the distinct triplets present in the array which adds up to a given number K.

An array is said to have a triplet {ARR[i], ARR[j], ARR[k]} with sum = 'K' if there exists three indices i, j and k such that i!=j, j!=k and i!=j and ARR[i] + ARR[j] + ARR[k] = 'K'.

Note:

1. You can return the list of values in any order. For example, if a valid triplet is {1, 2, -3}, then {2, -3, 1}, {-3, 2, 1} etc is also valid triplet. Also, the ordering of different triplets can be random i.e if there are more than one valid triplets, you can return them in any order.
2. The elements in the array need not be distinct.
3. If no such triplet is present in the array, then return an empty list, and the output printed for such a test case will be "-1".

You have been given the preorder and inorder traversal of a binary tree. Your task is to construct a binary tree using the given inorder and preorder traversals.

Note:

You may assume that duplicates do not exist in the given traversals.

For example :

For the preorder sequence = [1, 2, 4, 7, 3] and the inorder sequence = [4, 2, 7, 1, 3], we get the following binary tree.

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.

Given a singly linked list of integers. Your task is to return the head of the reversed linked list.

For example:

The given linked list is 1 -> 2 -> 3 -> 4-> NULL. Then the reverse linked list is 4 -> 3 -> 2 -> 1 -> NULL and the head of the reversed linked list will be 4.
