Lowest Common Ancestor of a Binary Tree

Data Structures & AlgorithmsMedium

Given a binary tree, find the lowest common ancestor (LCA) of two given nodes in the tree. According to the definition of LCA on Wikipedia: “The lowest common ancestor is defined between two nodes p and q as the lowest node in T that has both p and q as descendants (where we allow a node to be a descendant of itself). For example: If the tree is [3,5,1,6,2,0,8,null,null,7,4], p = 5, q = 1, then the expected output is 3, because the LCA of nodes 5 and 1 is 3. If the tree is [3,5,1,6,2,0,8,null,null,7,4], p = 5, q = 4, then the expected output is 5, because the LCA of nodes 5 and 4 is 5, since a node can be a descendant of itself according to the LCA definition. If the tree is [1,2], p = 1, q = 2, then the expected output is 1. Consider these constraints: The number of nodes in the tree is in the range [2, 10^5]. -10^9 <= Node.val <= 10^9 All Node.val are unique. p != q p and q will exist in the tree.

Design a turnstile with locked and unlocked states, and implement insert_token() and push() methods.

System DesignHard

Let's design a turnstile. A turnstile is a type of gate which allows one person to pass at a time. Consider a turnstile at a subway station. There are two panels that rotate to allow a single person passage. The turnstile has two states, Locked and Unlocked, and the customer can either Push the turnstile or Insert a token/card. Here is the state transition table: | Event | Current State | Action | Next State | | :----- | :------------ | :------------- | :--------- | | Push | Locked | | Locked | | Token | Locked | Unlock | Unlocked | | Push | Unlocked | Pass through | Locked | | Token | Unlocked | (discarded) | Unlocked | Requirements: Model the state and behavior of a simple turnstile. Implement two methods: insert_token() push() Consider edge cases and error handling. What happens if someone tries to push without inserting a token? What happens if the system malfunctions? Example: turnstile = Turnstile() print(turnstile.state) # Output: Locked turnstile.push() print(turnstile.state) # Output: Locked turnstile.insert_token() print(turnstile.state) # Output: Unlocked turnstile.push() print(turnstile.state) # Output: Locked How would you approach this design and implementation, keeping in mind scalability, maintainability, and potential future extensions such as different types of tokens or remote unlocking?
