The key here would be to acquire all the different character combinations that can derive from the characters related to the supplied number in the left to right sequence of that number. Obviously the larger the supplied number, the more combinations there will be. The number of 26678837 which you provided in your post for … Read more
Is there any standard Java library class to represent a tree in Java? Specifically I need to represent the following: The sub-tree at any node can have an arbitrary number of children Each node (after the root) and it’s children will have string value I need to get all the children (some sort of list … Read more
Java implementation for Min-Max Heap?
I have a list of dictionaries and want each item to be sorted by a specific value. Take into consideration the list: [{‘name’:’Homer’, ‘age’:39}, {‘name’:’Bart’, ‘age’:10}] When sorted by name, it should become: [{‘name’:’Bart’, ‘age’:10}, {‘name’:’Homer’, ‘age’:39}] 1 18
It depends on many things. It’s usually O(1), with a decent hash which itself is constant time… but you could have a hash which takes a long time to compute, and if there are multiple items in the hash map which return the same hash code, get will have to iterate over them calling equals on each of them to find a match. … Read more

In terms of Java, both the class HashMap and the class Dictionary are implementations of the “Map” abstract data type. Abstract data types are not specific to any one programming language, and the Map ADT can also be known as a Hash, or a Dictionary, or an Associative Array (others at http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Associative_array). (Notice we’re making a distinction between the Dictionary class and the Dictionary … Read more
This may help: To put it simple, ADT is a logical description and data structure is concrete. ADT is the logical picture of the data and the operations to manipulate the component elements of the data. Data structure is the actual representation of the data during the implementation and the algorithms to manipulate the data … Read more
A HashMap contains more than one key. You can use keySet() to get the set of all keys. team1.put(“foo”, 1); team1.put(“bar”, 2); will store 1 with key “foo” and 2 with key “bar”. To iterate over all the keys: for ( String key : team1.keySet() ) { System.out.println( key ); } will print “foo” and … Read more
