2080. Range Frequency Queries

Difficulty Topics

Description

Design a data structure to find the frequency of a given value in a given subarray.

The frequency of a value in a subarray is the number of occurrences of that value in the subarray.

Implement the RangeFreqQuery class:

  • RangeFreqQuery(int[] arr) Constructs an instance of the class with the given 0-indexed integer array arr.
  • int query(int left, int right, int value) Returns the frequency of value in the subarray arr[left...right].

A subarray is a contiguous sequence of elements within an array. arr[left...right] denotes the subarray that contains the elements of nums between indices left and right (inclusive).

 

Example 1:

Input
["RangeFreqQuery", "query", "query"]
[[[12, 33, 4, 56, 22, 2, 34, 33, 22, 12, 34, 56]], [1, 2, 4], [0, 11, 33]]
Output
[null, 1, 2]

Explanation
RangeFreqQuery rangeFreqQuery = new RangeFreqQuery([12, 33, 4, 56, 22, 2, 34, 33, 22, 12, 34, 56]);
rangeFreqQuery.query(1, 2, 4); // return 1. The value 4 occurs 1 time in the subarray [33, 4]
rangeFreqQuery.query(0, 11, 33); // return 2. The value 33 occurs 2 times in the whole array.

 

Constraints:

  • 1 <= arr.length <= 105
  • 1 <= arr[i], value <= 104
  • 0 <= left <= right < arr.length
  • At most 105 calls will be made to query

Solution

range-frequency-queries.py
class RangeFreqQuery:

    def __init__(self, arr: List[int]):
        self.mp = collections.defaultdict(list)
        for i, x in enumerate(arr):
            self.mp[x].append(i)

    def query(self, left: int, right: int, value: int) -> int:
        low = bisect.bisect_left(self.mp[value], left)
        high = bisect.bisect(self.mp[value], right)

        return high - low


# Your RangeFreqQuery object will be instantiated and called as such:
# obj = RangeFreqQuery(arr)
# param_1 = obj.query(left,right,value)
