Code in c++
It looks like you’re interested in C++ code, but I’ll need more information about what you want to do. Could you please clarify the task or project you’d like to implement in C++? Are you working on a specific problem, data structure, algorithm, or something else? Let me know the details, and I'll be happy to help write or explain the code.
The Kingdom's Secret Missions
(vectorcinty
In the Kingdom of Geektand, the King has ordered a series of secret missions to prepare for an upcoming battle. There are a knights in the kingdom (this includes the King). The missions require multiple squads containing exactly two knights to succeed, but strict rules govem who can pair up with whom.
The knights are organized in a hierarchy. The King (0-th knight) is the supreme Commander with no superiors at the top. Every other knight i (1<i<n-1) directly reports to their direct superior knight arr[i-1].
A knight X is considered superior (direct or indirect) toknight Y if:
• Knight X is the direct superior of knight Y.
Or, knight X is a superior of the direct superior of knight Y.
To form a squad, no knight can be superior to their squadmate, either directly or indirectly and no knight can be part of more than one squad.
As the royal strategist of Geekland, calculate the maximum number of two-knight squads possible.
Note: No two knights can be superior to each other.
Examples:
Input: arr[] = [0, 0, 2, 1, 1, 3]
Output: 3 code in c++
Analysis
We have knights labeled . Knight 0 is the King (the root of the hierarchy). For each knight , we are given a direct superior . This induces a tree (or forest, if you momentarily remove the King) where node is the root, and there is a parent .
A knight is a (direct or indirect) superior of knight if and only if is on the unique path from the root down to . Equivalently, in tree terms:
We want to form squads (pairs) of two distinct knights such that:
The goal is to maximize the number of such disjoint pairs.
A few key observations:
Knight 0 (the King) can never pair with anyone, because the King is an ancestor of all other knights. So effectively, only knights in can form pairs.
If the tree is a chain (like ), then every node except the root is an ancestor or descendant of every other node in that chain. Hence no pairs can be formed in a pure chain (the answer would be 0).
In a star shape (root has children ), then none of the non-root nodes are ancestors of each other—so we can freely pair them up. We get pairs.
In general, we have a tree of size . Removing the root (knight 0) leaves us with a forest of subtrees. However, knights inside the same subtree can sometimes still form valid pairs (e.g., two siblings). Knights across different subtrees of the root also can form pairs because they do not lie on each other’s ancestor–descendant chain. In fact, in more complex hierarchies, one can form cross-pairs deeper in the tree (as in the sample example).
Formally, if we look at the “incomparability graph” on vertices with an edge whenever is not an ancestor of and is not an ancestor of , then the problem is to find a maximum matching in . This graph is the incomparability graph of the tree’s partial order (“ancestor” is the partial order). Such graphs (the incomparability graphs of a tree poset) are known to be cographs, and there exist linear/near-linear time algorithms for maximum matching in cographs via modular decomposition. However, implementing the cograph-matching algorithm from scratch can be non-trivial.
If the problem constraints are small (say or so), one can do the following simpler (but heavier) approach:
This is to build the graph plus in a naive Blossom implementation. That might be acceptable for up to a few thousands, but not for very large .
If the problem constraints are large (tens or hundreds of thousands), one must implement a more specialized cograph matching or use a known decomposition approach in near-linear time. Because the problem statement does not provide explicit constraints, below we’ll show the more straightforward “build adjacency + blossom” approach in C++ (assuming a moderate ). If you need to handle very large , you’d pursue the cograph/modular-decomposition method.
Below is a reference-style C++ code that:
arr[]
of length .inTime[u]
and outTime[u]
.Again, important disclaimer: if is large (e.g., ), the graph construction + blossom is infeasible in practice. In that scenario, one needs a more advanced “cograph maximum matching” approach. But for illustration (and smaller ), here is how you could code it.

(inTime[u], outTime[u])
.That size is exactly the maximum number of two-knight squads we can form so that no two knights in a squad have an ancestor–descendant relationship, and no knight is reused in two squads.
Complexity Caveat
For up to maybe or , this can work (though it might be tight). For very large , one must use a more specialized (and more intricate) algorithm taking advantage of the cograph structure of this incomparability graph.
Nevertheless, the above code illustrates the straightforward approach for moderate .
Consider the example given:
arr[] = [0, 0, 2, 1, 1, 3]
That means knights (0 through 6). The edges (superior->child) are:
text0->1 0->2 2->3 1->4 1->5 3->6
We skip knight 0 for pairing. Among knights 1..6, the maximum pairing is 3 squads, for instance:
(1, 3), (2, 4), (5, 6)
None of these pairs has an ancestor–descendant relationship. The code’s output for that input would be 3
.
Answer:
Use the above approach (DFS for ancestor checks + building the incomparability graph + maximum matching) if is small/medium. This directly yields the maximum number of valid 2-knight squads. For large , a more advanced cograph-matching decomposition is required, but the overall result is the same: a maximum matching in the incomparability graph of the tree.

Subarray AND OR XOR
Accuracy: 2.6%
Submissions: 1K+
Points: 20
You are given an array arr[] of integers. You are trying to explore all possible subarrays of arr[] and perform the following operations:
14
For each subarray, compute bitwise AND of all its elements. Then, perform bitwise XOR of all these AND values to get a final value, denoted as x.
Similarly, for each subarray, compute the bitwise OR of all its elements. Then, perform bitwise XOR of all these OR values to get a final value, denoted as y
The task is to return the sum of x and y.
Examples:
Input: arr[] = [1, 2, 3]
Output: 5
Explanation: For the array [1. 2. 3], the bitwise AND of all subarrays gives [1, 0. 0. 2. 2. 3), and XOR of these values results in x = 2. The bitwise OR of all subarrays gives [1, 3. 3. 2, 3, 3), and XOR of these values results in y = 3. The sum of x and y is 2 + 3 = 5.
Input: arr[] = [1, 4, 7]
Output: 13
Explanation: The bitwise AND of all subarrays gives [1, 0, 0, 4, 4, 7], and XOR of these values results in x = 6. The bitwise OR of all subarrays gives [1, 5, 7, 4, 7, 71, and XOR of these values results in y = 7. The sum of x and y is 6+7 code in c++
Analysis
We have an integer array of length . We need to consider all subarrays of . A subarray is defined by two indices with . There are such subarrays in total.
We define:
We want to return .
A naive solution would enumerate all subarrays and compute their ANDs and ORs in each, which is , far too large for bigger . We need a more efficient approach.
Recall that XOR of a collection of bits is if and only if the bit is set an odd number of times in that collection, and if it is set an even number of times.
Hence, we can handle each bit-position (for 32-bit or 64-bit integers) independently by asking:
When does subarray have bit set in its AND? Exactly when every element in that subarray has bit = 1.
In other words, if an element with bit = 0 appears anywhere in , the AND’s bit becomes 0.
When does subarray have bit set in its OR? Exactly when at least one element in that subarray has bit = 1.
Equivalently, the only way bit is not set in the OR is if every element in has bit = 0.
We want the final XOR over all subarrays. For a single bit :
Let be the contribution of bit to . Then if bit is set in the AND of an odd number of subarrays, and otherwise.
Let be the contribution of bit to . Then if bit is set in the OR of an odd number of subarrays, and otherwise.
Finally,
For bit , define a boolean array of length where
otherwise .
A subarray’s AND has bit = 1 exactly if every element in that subarray has . So any element with breaks that possibility. Consecutive runs of 1’s in indicate where bit remains set if we restrict our subarray to lie fully inside that run.
Hence, the total number of subarrays whose AND has bit =1 is
But we only need to know if this count is odd or even. XOR cares only about parity!
follows a 4-cycle pattern in :
In summary,
So we can compute the parity of by simply counting how many are . If that count is odd, bit in is 1; otherwise 0.
A subarray’s OR has bit =1 if and only if at least one element in that subarray has bit =1.
Equivalently, bit =0 in the OR if all elements in the subarray have bit =0. So, if we define a boolean array for “bit is 0 in ” and 0 otherwise, then consecutive runs of 1’s in that new array define subarrays with OR-bit =0.
But it’s often easier to do:
Hence, let’s define if bit =0 in , and 0 otherwise. Then find lengths of consecutive runs of 1’s in . Let those lengths be . Each run of length contributes subarrays that have OR-bit =0. Summing over all runs yields
Denote that sum as . Then the number of subarrays whose OR-bit =1 is .
Finally, we want of the OR-bit across all subarrays. Bit in the XOR result for the OR’s is 1 if and only if that bit is set in an odd number of subarrays. That is, we want
We again only need mod 2:
Hence,
because in binary.
We do this for each bit . Pseudocode outline:
parityOfTotal = (n*(n+1)/2) mod 2
. This is easy via n mod 4
.x = 0, y = 0
.arr
with respect to bit . (That is, b[j] = 1
if (arr[j] >> i) & 1 == 1
, else 0.)parityBitForAND
= sum over each of . This is the bit in .arr
(i.e., c[j] = 1
if bit of arr[j] is 0). Let those run lengths be . Compute parityM
= sum over each of . Then bit in = parityOfTotal XOR parityM
.parityBitForAND == 1
, set bit in x
. If (parityOfTotal XOR parityM) == 1
, set bit in y
.x + y
.This algorithm runs in O(n \times \text{(number_of_bits)}), which is quite efficient for reasonably large .
Example 1: .
T mod 2 = 0
because 6 is even.Example 2: .
From the problem statement:
[1, 0, 0, 4, 4, 7]
; XOR of these is .[1, 5, 7, 4, 7, 7]
; XOR of these is .We can confirm our approach reproduces that result.

Otherwise it’s even.
runParity(...)
Given a boolean array (stored as 0
or 1
), we find consecutive runs of 1’s. For a run of length , the quantity has parity 1
if (L \bmod 4 \in {1,2}`. We simply accumulate these parities (XOR them).
Building b
for the AND
We say b[i] = 1
if bit is set in arr[i]
. Consecutive runs of 1’s in b
indicate subarrays for which AND-bit =1.
Building c
for the OR
We say c[i] = 1
if bit is not set in arr[i]
. Consecutive runs of 1’s in c
correspond to subarrays that have no set bit at all, so OR-bit =0. We count the parity of such sub-subarrays, then compute the subarrays that do have bit =1 by totalSubarrayCountMod2(n) XOR parity_of_runs_in_c
.
Combine bits
For each bit , if the count of subarrays with AND-bit =1 is odd, we set that bit in x
. If the count of subarrays with OR-bit =1 is odd, we set that bit in y
.
Answer = x + y
.
This solves the problem in O(n \times \text{number_of_bits}), which is typically fast enough for large .
arr = [1, 2, 3]
=> Output should be 5
.arr = [1, 4, 7]
=> Output should be 13
.The code matches these results.
That completes the solution.
Path Multiple Queries

Submissions: 270+
Points: 30
You have been given a tree of n nodes. Each node is numbered from 0 to n-1. You have been given a 2D integer array edges[][] of size n-1 where each edges[i] = [u_{i}, v_{i}] denotes that there is an edge between nodes u¡ and v_{i} in the tree. You have also been given an array arr[] of size n, which denotes the value of each node in the tree.
You have to answer q-independent queries given in the 2D integer array queries [][]. Each query is of type (u, v, x) For each query, you have to multiply the value of each node on the path from node u to node v by x and return the sum of the values of all the nodes in the tree. Since the answer can be large, return it modulo 10 ^ 9 + 7
Note: Each query is independent, meaning changes made during one query do not affect others.
Examples:
Input: arr[] = [1, 2, 3], edges[][] =[ [0, 1] , [1, 2] ] queries UU = [[0, 2, 2], [1, 2, 3]]
Output: (12, 16]
Explanation: The tree is as follows:
0
1
2
Code in c++
For the first query, the path from 0 to 2 is 0 -> 1 -> 2 The values of the nodes
Solution Explanation
We have a tree with nodes (labeled through ), and each node has an associated value . We are given edges describing the tree structure, and we have queries. Each query is of the form , meaning:
Important detail: Each query is independent. That is, any changes from one query do not carry over to the next.
Let be the sum of all nodes’ values before any changes:
We can compute once at the start.
In a single query , only the values of nodes on the path from to are changed: each such node’s value is multiplied by .
Therefore, the main subproblem is quickly computing
for arbitrary . We want to do this for multiple queries in an efficient way.
A well-known tree technique to get the sum of values on the path between two nodes in time is:
Finally, once we have , the answer to each query is
We do all arithmetic modulo .
Because each query is “independent,” we do not update or after each query. We always revert to the original array.

. For the root, p=-1
and depth[0]=0
.Binary Lifting Setup:
parent[k][u]
= 2^k-th ancestor of u
.Compute S
= total sum of all node values. This is used as the base sum to which we add increments for a query.
Answering Each Query :
lca = LCA(u,v)
.pathSum = depthSum[u] + depthSum[v] - 2*depthSum[lca] + arrVal[lca]
.This gives all results in after an preprocessing, which is efficient for large and .
Example Walkthrough
Using the example in the prompt:
arr = [1,2,3]
. Edges: , .We root the tree at node 0
:
text(0) -- (1) -- (2) arr[0]=1, arr[1]=2, arr[2]=3
S = 1 + 2 + 3 = 6
.depthSum[0] = 1
.depthSum[1] = depthSum[0]+arr[1]=1+2=3
.depthSum[2] = depthSum[1]+arr[2]=3+3=6
.LCA table is straightforward:
parent[0][0] = -1
, parent[0][1] = 0
, parent[0][2] = 1
.Query 1:
lca(0,2) = 1
? Actually the path is 0->1->2
. The LCA of (0,2) is 1
only if the tree is rooted at 0 but let's check carefully:
depth[0]=0, depth[1]=1, depth[2]=2
.
Bringing 2
up to same depth as 0
→ bring it up 2 levels => from 2 to 1 to 0. Actually, we see that the LCA might end up being 0 if we follow typical logic. Let’s do it carefully:
depth[2] = 2 > depth[0] = 0
. diff = 2
. We lift 2
up by 2: first parent[0][2] = 1
, then parent[0][1] = 0
=> indeed we get 0
. So after that lifting, u=0, v=0
. So LCA is 0
.
So the path is: 0 -> 1 -> 2
. The LCA is indeed 0
, not 1
.
Then:
That matches the sum of arr[0], arr[1], arr[2]
on the path (1 + 2 + 3 = 6).
So the new sum = S + pathSum*(x-1) = 6 + 6*(2-1) = 6+6=12.
Query 2:
lca(1,2)
with depth[1]=1, depth[2]=2
. We lift node 2 up by diff=1
=> from 2 to parent=1 => they coincide => LCA=1.arr[1]+arr[2]=2+3=5
.S + 5*(3-1) = 6 + 5*2 = 16.
Hence the outputs (12, 16)
as in the example.
That’s it! We have a fast and clean solution:
depthSum
and immediate parent.pathSum
via the LCA trick, then output .
