UVA 11661 – Burger Time?

Just keep track of the last burger joint you saw and the last restaurant you saw. You can solve this greedily. If you ever find a ‘Z’ then the answer is immediately always 0.

UVA 10324 – Zeros and Ones

I finally solved this problem. Everytime I see the word queries or MOD 1000000007 I instantly panic because I know I haven’t quite yet gotten to making a Segment Tree or solving DP problems yet. I did end up making a Segment Tree that does successfully solve this problem however since our input is so huge it will most definitely TLE. Here is my solution, I can just keep summing the values and put them in an ArrayList and then just compare the sums at the query endpoints. I did however miss out the edge case of [1,0,0,0,0] as the sum would be same at both ends however the actual numbers are different. I just added that case in and AC!
