Questions and Answers

What is the time complexity of the intermediate array method for rotating an array?

O(n*k) (correct)

O(k)

O(n)

O(n + k)

In the reversal method for rotating an array, which of the following is the correct first step?

Divide the array into two parts and reverse each part. (correct)

Check if the order is greater than the array's length.

Complete the rotation by using an intermediate array.

Rotate the entire array after reversing the sections.

What is the significance of using 'k % nums.length' when rotating the array?

It allows the array to be reversed directly.

It ensures that k is always positive.

It avoids unnecessary rotations when k is larger than n. (correct)

It handles cases where the array length is zero.

Study Notes

LeetCode Solutions Overview

Program Creek Version 0.0 contains solutions to various algorithmic problems.
Divided into multiple sections, each addressing distinct coding challenges.

Array Manipulation

Problem: Rotate an array of n elements to the right by k steps.
Example given: For n = 7 and k = 3, array [1,2,3,4,5,6,7] becomes [5,6,7,1,2,3,4].

Solution Methodologies

Solution 1 - Intermediate Array

Create a new array to hold rotated elements.
Use System.arraycopy() to transfer elements.
Time complexity is O(n*k), which can be inefficient.

Solution 2 - In-Place Rotation

Involves manipulating the original array rather than creating a new one.
Utilizes a loop to swap elements directly within the array.
May improve space efficiency, but retains high time complexity.

Solution 3 - Reverse

A more optimal method achieving O(1) space and O(n) time complexity.
Steps involved:
- Split the array into two parts.
- Reverse the first part and then the second part.
- Finally, reverse the entire array to achieve the desired rotation.
The process can effectively minimize memory usage while ensuring performance efficiency.

Implementation Example

Code snippet demonstrates reversing segments of the array:
- Adjust the order using order = order % arr.length.
- Validate input for array and order constraints.
- Use a helper method to perform the reversing actions efficiently.
