You are given a singly linked list of integers.

Your task is to swap every two adjacent nodes, and return the head of the modified, linked list.

For Example:

We have a linked list 1->2->3->4->5->6->7 and so on. You are supposed to swap pairs of a linked list like swap (1,2), (3,4), (5,6), and so on.

Note:

1. You may not modify the data in the list’s nodes; only nodes themselves may be changed. Because imagine a case where a node contains many fields, so there will be too much unnecessary swap.

2. If a pair of a node does not exist, then leave the node as it is.

A thief wants to loot houses. He knows the amount of money in each house. He cannot loot two consecutive houses. Find the maximum amount of money he can loot.

Given a binary tree of integers, you are supposed to modify the given binary tree to a sum tree where each node value is replaced by the sum of the values of both left and right subtrees in the given tree. The value of leaf nodes is changed to zero.

Example:

Below is the example showing the input tree and its sum tree.  

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

Given an array of numbers, find the maximum sum of any contiguous subarray of the array.

For example, given the array [34, -50, 42, 14, -5, 86], the maximum sum would be 137, since we would take elements 42, 14, -5, and 86.

Given the array [-5, -1, -8, -9], the maximum sum would be -1.

Follow up: Do this in O(N) time.

You are given two strings 'S' and 'T' of lengths 'N' and 'M' respectively. Find the "Edit Distance" between the strings.

Edit Distance of two strings is the minimum number of steps required to make one string equal to the other. In order to do so, you can perform the following three operations:

1. Delete a character
2. Replace a character with another one
3. Insert a character

Note:

Strings don't contain spaces in between.
