1917. Leetcodify Friends Recommendations πŸ”’

Description

Table: Listens

+-------------+---------+
| Column Name | Type    |
+-------------+---------+
| user_id     | int     |
| song_id     | int     |
| day         | date    |
+-------------+---------+
This table may contain duplicates (In other words, there is no primary key for this table in SQL).
Each row of this table indicates that the user user_id listened to the song song_id on the day day.

 

Table: Friendship

+---------------+---------+
| Column Name   | Type    |
+---------------+---------+
| user1_id      | int     |
| user2_id      | int     |
+---------------+---------+
In SQL,(user1_id, user2_id) is the primary key for this table.
Each row of this table indicates that the users user1_id and user2_id are friends.
Note that user1_id < user2_id.

 

Recommend friends to Leetcodify users. We recommend user x to user y if:

  • Users x and y are not friends, and
  • Users x and y listened to the same three or more different songs on the same day.

Note that friend recommendations are unidirectional, meaning if user x and user y should be recommended to each other, the result table should have both user x recommended to user y and user y recommended to user x. Also, note that the result table should not contain duplicates (i.e., user y should not be recommended to user x multiple times.).

Return the result table in any order.

The result format is in the following example.

Friendship table:
+----------+----------+
| user1_id | user2_id |
+----------+----------+
| 1        | 2        |
+----------+----------+
Output: 
+---------+----------------+
| user_id | recommended_id |
+---------+----------------+
| 1       | 3              |
| 2       | 3              |

| 3       | 2              |
+---------+----------------+
Explanation: 
Users 1 and 2 listened to songs 10, 11, and 12 on the same day, but they are already friends.
Users 1 and 3 listened to songs 10, 11, and 12 on the same day. Since they are not friends, we recommend them to each other.
Users 1 and 4 did not listen to the same three songs.
Users 1 and 5 listened to songs 10, 11, and 12, but on different days.

Similarly, we can see that users 2 and 3 listened to songs 10, 11, and 12 on the same day and are not friends, so we recommend them to each other.
