Building skyline Outline
Given N buildings in a x-axis,each building is a rectangle and can be represented by a triple (start, end, height),where start is the start position on x-axis, end is the end position on x-axis and height is the height of the building. Buildings may overlap if you see them from far away,find the outline of them. An outline can be represented by a triple, (start, end, height), where start is the start position on x-axis of the outline, end is the end position on x-axis and height is the height of the outline.

218 - The Skyline Problem
A city’s skyline is the outer contour of the silhouette formed by all the buildings in that city when viewed from a distance. Now suppose you are given the locations and height of all the buildings as shown on a cityscape photo (Figure A), write a program to output the skyline formed by these buildings collectively (Figure B).

Sliding Window Median
Given an array of n integer, and a moving window(size k), move the window at each iteration from the start of the array, find the median of the element inside the window at each moving. (If there are even numbers in the array, return the N/2-th number after sorting the element in the window. )

Find the Weak Connected Component in the Directed Graph
Find the number Weak Connected Component in the directed graph. Each node in the graph contains a label and a list of its neighbors. (a connected set of a directed graph is a subgraph in which any two vertices are connected by direct edge path.)

212 - Word Search II
Given a matrix of lower alphabets and a dictionary. Find all words in the dictionary that can be found in the matrix. A word can start from any position in the matrix and go left/right/up/down to the adjacent position.
-
79 - Word Search
Given a 2D board and a word, find if the word exists in the grid. The word can be constructed from letters of sequentially adjacent cell, where “adjacent” cells are those horizontally or vertically neighboring. The same letter cell may not be used more than once.

The Smallest Difference
Given two array of integers(the first array is array A, the second array is array B), now we are going to find a element in array A which is A[i], and another element in array B which is B[j], so that the difference between A[i] and B[j] (|A[i] - B[j]|) is as small as possible, return their smallest difference.

Sort Colors II
Given an array of n objects with k different colors (numbered from 1 to k), sort them so that objects of the same color are adjacent, with the colors in the order 1, 2, ... k.
-
75 - Sort Colors
Given an array with n objects colored red, white or blue, sort them so that objects of the same color are adjacent, with the colors in the order red, white and blue. Here, we will use the integers 0, 1, and 2 to represent the color red, white, and blue respectively.

Rehashing
The size of the hash table is not determinate at the very beginning. If the total size of keys is too large (e.g. size >= capacity / 10), we should double the size of the hash table and rehash every keys.
