is there a function that removes the unique elements from a vector leaving only the elements with duplicates?
Example 1: {2,2,5,5,5,1,1} I want this to be {2,2,5,5,5,1,1}
No element has been removed since all of them have a duplicate value.
Example 2: {2,2,5,5,5,1,3} I want this to be {2,2,5,5,5}
1 and 3 have been removed since these two integers have no duplicates.
Found this Unique function but the ouput is not what I am expecting.
vector<int> arr = {2,2,5,5,5,1,3};
arr.erase( unique( arr.begin(), arr.end() ), arr.end() );
for(int x:arr){
cout << x;
}
Output: 2513
Expected Output: 22555

Essentially we are asked to find, given a string, the longest substring with no repeating characters, below I am using the sliding window approach.
Examples:
Input: s = "abcabcbb"
Output: 3
Explanation: The answer is "abc", with the length of 3.
Input: s = "bbbbb"
Output: 1
Explanation: The answer is "b", with the length of 1.
Input: s = "pwwkew"
Output: 3
Explanation: The answer is "wke", with the length of 3.
Notice that the answer must be a substring, "pwke" is a subsequence and not a substring.
My attempt:
class Solution {
public:
int lengthOfLongestSubstring(std::string s){
int count{0};
std::map<char,int> char_map;
std::vector<char> char_vec;
auto left{char_vec.begin()};
auto right{char_vec.begin()};
for(int i = 0; i < s.length(); i++){
char_vec.push_back(s[i]);
if(char_map.find(s[i]) != char_map.end()){
char_map[s[i]]++;
}
else{
char_map.insert(std::pair<char,int>{s[i],1});
}
while(++right != char_vec.end() && char_map[*(right)] > 1){
char_map[*(left++)]--;
}
count = (count < std::distance(left,right)) ? std::distance(left,right) : count;
}
return count;
}
};
However, there is an issue in the while loop near the end of the code block that is causing
compiler error and am very confused about how to solve it.
So your code is suffering from iterator invalidation. Here you have a vector
std::vector<char> char_vec;
and here you create two iterators to that vector
auto left{char_vec.begin()};
auto right{char_vec.begin()};
and then here you add an item to that vector
char_vec.push_back(s[i]);
When you add an item to a vector you may invalidate any iterators to that vector, and any use of such iterators causes your program to have undefined behaviour.
Instead of using iterators you could try using offsets (i.e. integer variables which you use to index the vector). These have the advantage that they are not invalidated as the vector grows.
For more information on iterator invalidation see the table on this page. Different containers have different behaviour wrt iterator invalidation.

How to reduce the time compexity of this code,this is not exeuting within the time
exact ques from hackerrank--
Complete the circularArrayRotation function in the editor below. It should return an array of integers representing the values at the specified indices.
circularArrayRotation has the following parameter(s):
a: an array of integers to rotate
k: an integer, the rotation count
queries: an array of integers, the indices to report
vector<int> circularArrayRotation(vector<int> a, int k, vector<int> queries) {
int i,temp;
vector<int> ans;
//to perform number of queries k
while(k--)
{ //shift last element to first pos and then move rest of elements to 1 postion forward
temp=a[a.size()-1]; //last element
for(i=a.size()-1;i>0;i--)
{
a[i]=a[i-1];
}
a[0]=temp;
}
for(i=0;i<queries.size();i++)
{
ans.push_back(a[queries[i]]);
}
return ans;
}
The vector a is being rotated by k in the while loop. The whole loop can be removed by adding k and using modulo when accessing elements in a:
ans.push_back(a[(queries[i]+k)%a.size()]);
Note: you might need handling of negative values of k.
Note: Maybe it should be minus instead of plus.
An alternative could be to use std::rotate.
Furthermore, the ans vector should be pre-allocated to reduce the number of allocations to one:
ans.reserve(queries.size());

User inputs array size(N). Numbers from 0 until N fill the array [closed]

It's supposed to be N={0,1,2...N}
N is entered by the user.
If N is 6 then N={0,1...5}
The numbers from 0 to N should fill the array.
We haven't studied vectors yet so that's not an option.
First of all, allocate in memory an array of size n+1
int *arr= new int[n+1];
Iterate over this array, and assign the corresponding values
for(int i=0; i<n+1; ++i)
arr[i] = i;

Suppose I have the following array:
int arr[7] = {18,16,5,5,18,16,4}
How can I iterate over unique elements(18, 16, 5 and 4) in a loop in the same order in which they occur?
I could use a set but then the order of the iteration would change(set stores elements in ascending order).
What is the fastest solution to this problem?
Iterate over the array and store the numbers you have already seen in a set. For each iteration you check whether the number is already in the set or not. If yes, skip the current element. If not, process it and insert it into the set.
Also note that you want an std::unordered_set and not a std::set which is ordered. Order doesn't matter for your filtering set.
If the values are in a known limited range, you can use a lookup table. Create an array with bool elements, sized to maximum value + 1. Use the values of the first array as index into the bool array.
#include <iostream>
int main() {
int arr[7] = {18,16,5,5,18,16,4};
constexpr int maxValue = 18;
bool lookup[maxValue + 1]{};
for( auto i : arr )
{
if( ! lookup[ i ] )
{
std::cout << i << ' ';
lookup[ i ] = true;
}
}
}
Live Demo
A std::bitset would be more space efficient but also slower, because individual bits cannot be directly addressed by the CPU.
Simply replace the bool array like so:
std::bitset<maxValue + 1> lookup;
The remaining code stays the same.

Still a beginner to coding, but is there a way to obtain sub-array from an array without the use of nested loops i.e. more traditional methods?
Assuming you want a copy of a part of a vector, you can use a constructor that takes an interator for the beginning and the end of the new vector.
vector<int> array = {0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5};
vector<int> subArray(array.cbegin() + 2, array.cbegin() + 4);
for (int i : subArray) {
cout << i << endl;
}
output:
2
3
