Study Notes
Set Operations and Implementations
- Union: Combines all elements of two sets without duplicates
- Intersection: Returns common elements in two sets
- Difference: Returns elements in the first set but not in the second set
- Subset: A set containing all elements from another set (issubset() in Python)
- HashSet (Java): Stores elements without maintaining order; fast lookups
- TreeSet (Java): Stores elements in natural sorted order
- LinkedHashSet (Java): Stores elements in insertion order.
-
Methods for Sets:
-
issubset()
: Python method to check if a set is a subset of another set
-
Key-Value Pair Storage
- HashMap (Java): Uses a hash table for storing key-value pairs
-
Dictionary (Python): Key-value pairs
-
del
: Removes a key-value pair from a Python dictionary.
-
-
Map Methods (Java):
-
replace()
: Replaces the value of a key in a Java Map. -
get()
: Retrieves the value associated with a key. -
put()
: Adds a key-value pair or replaces the value.
-
Heap Data Structures
-
Min Heap: Parent nodes are smaller than or equal to child nodes
-
Max Heap: Parent nodes are larger than or equal to child nodes
-
PriorityQueue (Java): Implements a priority queue;
offer()
enqueues,poll()
dequeues the head. -
Heap Methods (Java):
-
poll()
: Removes and returns the head of the queue (lowest priority in a min-heap). -
peek()
: Retrieves the head without removing it.
-
-
PriorityQueue (Python): Use the
queue
library and theput()
method to add.get()
dequeues. -
Heap Initialization (Java):
new PriorityQueue()
to create an empty priority queue. -
PriorityQueue (Python): Use the
heapq
library to use a heap-based priority queue.
Other Data Structures
-
Set Initialization (Python):
{"a", "b", "c"}
initializes a set with the given values. - Sorted Order in Java: TreeSet ensures elements are stored in natural sorted order.
- Insertion Order in Java: LinkedHashMap maintains insertion order. HashMaps do not.
-
Retrieving Keys (Java Map):
keySet()
retrieves all keys. - Removing (Del key name): del is used to delete items in dictionaries and lists in Python.
