Sort List @LeetCode

Sort a linked list in O(n log n) time using constant space complexity.

Remove Nth Node From End of List @LeetCode

Given a linked list, remove the nth node from the end of list and return its head.
For example,
   Given linked list: 1->2->3->4->5, and n = 2.

   After removing the second node from the end, the linked list becomes 1->2->3->5.
Note:
Given n will always be valid.
Try to do this in one pass.

Valid Palindrome @LeetCode

Given a string, determine if it is a palindrome, considering only alphanumeric characters and ignoring cases.
For example,
"A man, a plan, a canal: Panama" is a palindrome.
"race a car" is not a palindrome.
Note:
Have you consider that the string might be empty? This is a good question to ask during an interview.
For the purpose of this problem, we define empty string as valid palindrome.

Validate Binary Search Tree @LeetCode

Given a binary tree, determine if it is a valid binary search tree (BST).
Assume a BST is defined as follows:
  • The left subtree of a node contains only nodes with keys less than the node's key.
  • The right subtree of a node contains only nodes with keys greater than the node's key.
  • Both the left and right subtrees must also be binary search trees.

RestoreIpAddresses @LeetCode

Given a string containing only digits, restore it by returning all possible valid IP address combinations.
For example:
Given "25525511135",
return ["255.255.11.135", "255.255.111.35"]. (Order does not matter)

Palindrome Partitioning @LeetCode

Given a string s, partition s such that every substring of the partition is a palindrome.
Return all possible palindrome partitioning of s.
For example, given s = "aab",
Return
[
    ["aa","b"],
    ["a","a","b"]
]

TwoSum @LeetCode



Given an array of integers, find two numbers such that they add up to a specific target number.
The function twoSum should return indices of the two numbers such that they add up to the target, where index1 must be less than index2. Please note that your returned answers (both index1 and index2) are not zero-based.
You may assume that each input would have exactly one solution.
Input: numbers={2, 7, 11, 15}, target=9
Output: index1=1, index2=2
