-
背向双指针:(基本上全是回文串的题)
- Leetcode 409. Longest Palindrome
- Leetcode 125. Valid Palindrome (I、II)
- Leetcode 5. Longest Palindromic Substring

-
BFS基本模板(需要记录层数或者不需要记录层数)
-
多数情况下时间复杂度空间复杂度都是O(N+M),N为节点个数,M为边的个数
-
基于树的BFS:不需要专门一个set来记录访问过的节点

- Leetcode 103 Binary Tree Zigzag Level Order Traversal
- Leetcode 297 Serialize and Deserialize Binary Tree (很好的BFS和双指针结合的题)

- DFS基本模板(需要记录路径,不需要返回值 and 不需要记录路径,但需要记录某些特征的返回值)
- 除了遍历之外多数情况下时间复杂度是指数级别,一般是O(方案数×找到每个方案的时间复杂度)
- 递归题目都可以用非递归迭代的方法写,但一般实现起来非常麻烦
-
基于树的DFS:需要记住递归写前序中序后序遍历二叉树的模板
- Leetcode 543 Diameter of Binary Tree (分治)
- Leetcode 124 Binary Tree Maximum Path Sum (分治)
- Leetcode 226 Invert Binary Tree (分治)

记忆化搜索(DFS + Memoization Search):算是用递归的方式实现动态规划,递归每次返回时同时记录下已访问过的节点特征,避免重复访问同一个节点,可以有效的把指数级别的DFS时间复杂度降为多项式级别; 注意这一类的DFS必须在最后有返回值(分治法),不可以用回溯法; for循环的dp题目都可以用记忆化搜索的方式写,但是不是所有的记忆化搜索题目都可以用for循环的dp方式写。

- Leetcode 472 Concatenated Words
- Leetcode 403 Frog Jump
- Leetcode 329 Longest Increasing Path in a Matrix
前缀和(Prefix Sum)
-
基础知识:前缀和本质上是在一个list当中,用O(N)的时间提前算好从第0个数字到第i个数字之和,在后续使用中可以在O(1)时间内计算出第i到第j个数字之和,一般很少单独作为一道题出现,而是很多题目中的用到的一个小技巧
-
常见题目:
- Leetcode 53 Maximum Subarray
- Leetcode 1423 Maximum Points You Can Obtain from Cards
- Leetcode 1031 Maximum Sum of Two Non-Overlapping Subarrays
- Leetcode 523 Continuous Subarray Sum
- Leetcode 304 Range Sum Query 2D - Immutable
以上内容皆为面试中高频的知识点,以下知识点和题目在面试中属于中等频率(大概面10道题会遇到一次),时间不足的情况下,请以准备上面的知识点为主。
并查集(Union Find):把两个或者多个集合合并为一个集合
-
基础知识:如果数据不是实时变化,本类问题可以用BFS或者DFS的方式遍历,如果数据实时变化(data stream)则并查集每次的时间复杂度可以视为O(1);需要牢记合并与查找两个操作的模板
-
常见题目:
- Leetcode 721 Accounts Merge
- Leetcode 547 Number of Provinces
- Leetcode 737 Sentence Similarity II
- Leetcode 305 Number of Islands II
字典树(Trie)
-

-
常见题目:

- Leetcode 211 Design Add and Search Words Data Structure
- Leetcode 1268 Search Suggestions System
- Leetcode 212 Word Search II
- Leetcode 1166 Design File System
单调栈与单调队列(Monotone Stack/Queue)
-
基础知识:单调栈一般用于解决数组中找出每个数字的第一个大于/小于该数字的位置或者数字;单调队列只见过一道题需要使用;不论单调栈还是单调队列,单调的意思是保留在栈或者队列中的数字是单调递增或者单调递减的
-
常见题目:

-
常见题目:
- Leetcode 253 Meeting Room II(Meeting Room I也可以使用)
- Leetcode 1094 Car Pooling
- Leetcode 218 The Skyline Problem
- Leetcode 759 Employee Free Time
TreeMap
- 基础知识:基于红黑树(平衡二叉搜索树)的一种树状 hashmap,增删查改、找求大最小均为logN复杂度,Python当中可以使用SortedDict替代;SortedDict继承了普通的dict全部的方法,除此之外还可以peekitem(k)来找key里面第k大的元素,popitem(k)来删除掉第k大的元素,弥补了Python自带的heapq没法logN时间复杂度内删除某个元素的缺陷;最近又在刷一些hard题目时候突然发现TreeMap简直是个神技,很多用别的数据结构写起来非常麻烦的题目,TreeMap解决起来易如反掌。

- Leetcode 729 My Calendar I
- Leetcode 981 Time Based Key-Value Store
- Leetcode 846 Hand of Straights
- Leetcode 218 The Skyline Problem
- Leetcode 480. Sliding Window Median (这个题用TreeMap超级方便)
- Leetcode 318 Count of Smaller Numbers After Self (这个题线段树、二分索引树、TreeMap都可以)
动态规划(Dynamic Programming)
-
基础知识:这里指的是用for循环方式的动态规划,非Memoization Search方式。DP可以在多项式时间复杂度内解决DFS需要指数级别的问题。常见的题目包括找最大最小,找可行性,找总方案数等,一般结果是一个Integer或者Boolean。动态规划有很多分支,暂时还没想好怎么去写这部分,后面想好了再具体写吧。
