There are a total of numCourses
courses you have to take, labeled from 0
to numCourses - 1
. You are given an array prerequisites
where prerequisites[i] = [ai, bi]
indicates that you must take course bi
first if you want to take course ai
.
- For example, the pair
[0, 1]
, indicates that to take course0
you have to first take course1
.
Return the ordering of courses you should take to finish all courses. If there are many valid answers, return any of them. If it is impossible to finish all courses, return an empty array.
Example 1:
Input: numCourses = 2, prerequisites = [[1,0]]
Output: [0,1]
Explanation: There are a total of 2 courses to take. To take course 1 you should have finished course 0. So the correct course order is [0,1].
Example 2:
Input: numCourses = 4, prerequisites = [[1,0],[2,0],[3,1],[3,2]]
Output: [0,2,1,3]
Explanation: There are a total of 4 courses to take. To take course 3 you should have finished both courses 1 and 2. Both courses 1 and 2 should be taken after you finished course 0.
So one correct course order is [0,1,2,3]. Another correct ordering is [0,2,1,3].
Example 3:
Input: numCourses = 1, prerequisites = []
Output: [0]
Constraints:
-
1 <= numCourses <= 2000
-
0 <= prerequisites.length <= numCourses * (numCourses - 1)
-
prerequisites[i].length == 2
-
0 <= ai, bi < numCourses
-
ai != bi
- All the pairs
[ai, bi]
are distinct.
SOLUTION:
class Solution:
def topologicalSort(self, graph, node, visited):
visited.add(node)
for j in graph.get(node, []):
if j not in visited:
self.topologicalSort(graph, j, visited)
self.sorted.append(node)
def findOrder(self, numCourses: int, prerequisites: List[List[int]]) -> List[int]:
graph = {}
for a, b in prerequisites:
graph[b] = graph.get(b, []) + [a]
self.sorted = []
visited = set()
for node in range(numCourses):
if node not in visited:
self.topologicalSort(graph, node, visited)
self.sorted.reverse()
pos = {}
for i, node in enumerate(self.sorted):
pos[node] = i
for i in graph:
for j in graph[i]:
if pos[i] > pos[j]:
return []
return self.sorted
