1128. Number of Equivalent Domino Pairs

Description

Given a list of dominoes, dominoes[i] = [a, b] is equivalent to dominoes[j] = [c, d] if and only if either (a == c and b == d), or (a == d and b == c) - that is, one domino can be rotated to be equal to another domino.

Return the number of pairs (i, j) for which 0 <= i < j < dominoes.length, and dominoes[i] is equivalent to dominoes[j].

 

Example 1:

Input: dominoes = [[1,2],[2,1],[3,4],[5,6]]
Output: 1

Example 2:

Input: dominoes = [[1,2],[1,2],[1,1],[1,2],[2,2]]
Output: 3

 

Constraints:

  • 1 <= dominoes.length <= 4 * 104
  • dominoes[i].length == 2
  • 1 <= dominoes[i][j] <= 9

Solutions

Solution 1: Counting

We can concatenate the two numbers of each domino in order of size to form a two-digit number, so that equivalent dominoes can be concatenated into the same two-digit number. For example, both [1, 2] and [2, 1] are concatenated into the two-digit number 12, and both [3, 4] and [4, 3] are concatenated into the two-digit number 34.

Then we traverse all the dominoes, using an array $cnt$ of length $100$ to record the number of occurrences of each two-digit number. For each domino, the two-digit number we concatenate is $x$, then the answer will increase by $cnt[x]$, and then we add $1$ to the value of $cnt[x]$. Continue to traverse the next domino, and we can count the number of all equivalent domino pairs.

The time complexity is $O(n)$, and the space complexity is $O(C)$. Here, $n$ is the number of dominoes, and $C$ is the maximum number of two-digit numbers concatenated in the dominoes, which is $100$.
