LeetCode in Kotlin

1713. Minimum Operations to Make a Subsequence

Hard

You are given an array target that consists of distinct integers and another integer array arr that can have duplicates.

In one operation, you can insert any integer at any position in arr. For example, if arr = [1,4,1,2], you can add 3 in the middle and make it [1,4,3,1,2]. Note that you can insert the integer at the very beginning or end of the array.

Return the minimum number of operations needed to make target a subsequence of arr.

A subsequence of an array is a new array generated from the original array by deleting some elements (possibly none) without changing the remaining elements’ relative order. For example, [2,7,4] is a subsequence of [4,2,3,7,2,1,4] (the underlined elements), while [2,4,2] is not.

Example 1:

Input: target = [5,1,3], arr = [9,4,2,3,4]

Output: 2

Explanation: You can add 5 and 1 in such a way that makes arr = [5,9,4,1,2,3,4], then target will be a subsequence of arr.

Example 2:

Input: target = [6,4,8,1,3,2], arr = [4,7,6,2,3,8,6,1]

Output: 3

Solution

import java.util.Arrays

class Solution {
    fun minOperations(target: IntArray, arr: IntArray): Int {
        val map: MutableMap<Int, Int> = HashMap()
        for (i in target.indices) {
            map[target[i]] = i
        }
        val list: MutableList<Int?> = ArrayList()
        for (num in arr) {
            if (map.containsKey(num)) {
                list.add(map[num])
            }
        }
        return target.size - longestIncreasingSubsequence(list)
    }

    private fun longestIncreasingSubsequence(list: List<Int?>): Int {
        val n = list.size
        var l = 0
        val arr = IntArray(n)
        for (num in list) {
            var index = Arrays.binarySearch(arr, 0, l, num!!)
            if (index < 0) {
                index = index.inv()
            }
            arr[index] = num
            if (index == l) {
                l++
            }
        }
        return l
    }
