समस्या
In C#, an IComparer<T> is an interface: any class that implements its Compare method can tell a sort which item comes first. Choosing a different comparer changes the order without changing the sort.
Sort the people by key:
name: by name (ordinal character order, so uppercase letters come before lowercase), and by age when names are equal.age: by age, youngest first, and by name when ages are equal.
Implement sort_by_key(names, ages, key).
Input
names, ages: The people (same length).
key: "name" or "age".
Output
Return the names in sorted order.
सीमाएँ
0 ≤ number of people ≤ 100,000
0 ≤ age ≤ 150
उदाहरण
इनपुट:
key = "age"
ages = [30, 36, 30]
names = ["Lin", "Ada", "Bo"]
अपेक्षित आउटपुट:
expected = ["Bo", "Lin", "Ada"]
इनपुट:
std::string key = "age";
std::vector<long long> ages = {30, 36, 30};
std::vector<std::string> names = {"Lin", "Ada", "Bo"};
अपेक्षित आउटपुट:
std::vector<std::string> expected = {"Bo", "Lin", "Ada"};
इनपुट:
string key = "age";
long[] ages = new long[] {30, 36, 30};
string[] names = new string[] {"Lin", "Ada", "Bo"};
अपेक्षित आउटपुट:
string[] expected = new string[] {"Bo", "Lin", "Ada"};
व्याख्या
Bo and Lin are both 30, so they are ordered by name before Ada (36): ["Bo", "Lin", "Ada"].
इनपुट:
key = "name"
ages = [30, 36, 30]
names = ["Lin", "Ada", "Bo"]
अपेक्षित आउटपुट:
expected = ["Ada", "Bo", "Lin"]
इनपुट:
std::string key = "name";
std::vector<long long> ages = {30, 36, 30};
std::vector<std::string> names = {"Lin", "Ada", "Bo"};
अपेक्षित आउटपुट:
std::vector<std::string> expected = {"Ada", "Bo", "Lin"};
इनपुट:
string key = "name";
long[] ages = new long[] {30, 36, 30};
string[] names = new string[] {"Lin", "Ada", "Bo"};
अपेक्षित आउटपुट:
string[] expected = new string[] {"Ada", "Bo", "Lin"};
व्याख्या
Alphabetical order: ["Ada", "Bo", "Lin"].
कैसे हल करें
पहले खुद कोशिश करें, फिर एक-एक करके संकेत खोलें।
संकेत 1
Sort pairs of (name, age) instead of two separate lists.
संकेत 2
The chosen key gives the main order; the other field breaks ties.
संकेत 3
Use ordinal string comparison so uppercase sorts before lowercase.
अपेक्षित जटिलता
O(n log n) time, O(n) extra space
