1146. Snapshot Array

Difficulty Topics

Description

Implement a SnapshotArray that supports the following interface:

  • SnapshotArray(int length) initializes an array-like data structure with the given length. Initially, each element equals 0.
  • void set(index, val) sets the element at the given index to be equal to val.
  • int snap() takes a snapshot of the array and returns the snap_id: the total number of times we called snap() minus 1.
  • int get(index, snap_id) returns the value at the given index, at the time we took the snapshot with the given snap_id

 

Example 1:

Input: ["SnapshotArray","set","snap","set","get"]
[[3],[0,5],[],[0,6],[0,0]]
Output: [null,null,0,null,5]
Explanation: 
SnapshotArray snapshotArr = new SnapshotArray(3); // set the length to be 3
snapshotArr.set(0,5);  // Set array[0] = 5
snapshotArr.snap();  // Take a snapshot, return snap_id = 0
snapshotArr.set(0,6);
snapshotArr.get(0,0);  // Get the value of array[0] with snap_id = 0, return 5

 

Constraints:

  • 1 <= length <= 5 * 104
  • 0 <= index < length
  • 0 <= val <= 109
  • 0 <= snap_id < (the total number of times we call snap())
  • At most 5 * 104 calls will be made to set, snap, and get.

Solution

snapshot-array.py
class SnapshotArray:

    def __init__(self, length: int):
        self.A = [[[-1, 0]] for _ in range(length)]
        self.snapId = 0

    def set(self, index: int, val: int) -> None:
        self.A[index].append([self.snapId, val])    

    def snap(self) -> int:
        self.snapId += 1
        return self.snapId - 1

    def get(self, index: int, snap_id: int) -> int:
        i = bisect.bisect(self.A[index], [snap_id + 1]) - 1
        return self.A[index][i][1]


# Your SnapshotArray object will be instantiated and called as such:
# obj = SnapshotArray(length)
# obj.set(index,val)
# param_2 = obj.snap()
# param_3 = obj.get(index,snap_id)
