Given a linked list containing duplicate elements. The task is to find the count of all minimum occurring elements in the given linked list. That is the count of all such elements whose frequency is minimum in the matrix.
Examples:
Input : 1-> 2-> 2-> 3 Output : 2 Explanation: 1 and 3 are elements occurs only one time. So, count is 2. Input : 10-> 20-> 20-> 10-> 30 Output : 1
Approach:
- Traverse the linked list and use a hash table to store the frequency of elements of the linked list such that the key of map is the linked list element and value is its frequency in the linked list.
- Then traverse the hash table to find the minimum frequency.
- Finally, traverse the hash table to find the frequency of elements and check if it matches with the minimum frequency obtained in previous step, if yes, then add this frequency to count.
Below is the implementation of the above approach:
C++
// C++ program to find count of minimum // frequency elements in Linked list #include <bits/stdc++.h> using namespace std;
/* Link list node */ struct Node {
int key;
struct Node* next;
}; /* Given a reference (pointer to pointer) to the head of a list and an int, push a new node on the front of the list. */ void push( struct Node** head_ref, int new_key)
{ struct Node* new_node = new Node;
new_node->key = new_key;
new_node->next = (*head_ref);
(*head_ref) = new_node;
} // Function to count minimum frequency elements // in the linked list int countMinimum( struct Node* head)
{ // Store frequencies of all nodes.
unordered_map< int , int > mp;
struct Node* current = head;
while (current != NULL) {
int data = current->key;
mp[data]++;
current = current->next;
}
// Find min frequency
current = head;
int min_frequency = INT_MAX, countMin = 0;
for ( auto it = mp.begin(); it != mp.end(); it++) {
if (it->second <= min_frequency) {
min_frequency = it->second;
}
}
// Find count of min frequency elements
for ( auto it = mp.begin(); it != mp.end(); it++) {
if (it->second == min_frequency) {
countMin += (it->second);
}
}
return countMin;
} /* Driver program to test count function*/ int main()
{ /* Start with the empty list */
struct Node* head = NULL;
int x = 21;
/* Use push() to construct below list
10->10->11->30->10 */
push(&head, 10);
push(&head, 30);
push(&head, 11);
push(&head, 10);
push(&head, 10);
cout << countMinimum(head) << endl;
return 0;
