2857. Count Pairs of Points With Distance k

Description

You are given a 2D integer array coordinates and an integer k, where coordinates[i] = [xi, yi] are the coordinates of the ith point in a 2D plane.

We define the distance between two points (x1, y1) and (x2, y2) as (x1 XOR x2) + (y1 XOR y2) where XOR is the bitwise XOR operation.

Return the number of pairs (i, j) such that i < j and the distance between points i and j is equal to k.

 

Example 1:

Input: coordinates = [[1,2],[4,2],[1,3],[5,2]], k = 5
Output: 2
Explanation: We can choose the following pairs:
- (0,1): Because we have (1 XOR 4) + (2 XOR 2) = 5.
- (2,3): Because we have (1 XOR 5) + (3 XOR 2) = 5.

Example 2:

Input: coordinates = [[1,3],[1,3],[1,3],[1,3],[1,3]], k = 0
Output: 10
Explanation: Any two chosen pairs will have a distance of 0. There are 10 ways to choose two pairs.

 

Constraints:

  • 2 <= coordinates.length <= 50000
  • 0 <= xi, yi <= 106
  • 0 <= k <= 100

Solutions

Solution 1: Hash Table + Enumeration

We can use a hash table $cnt$ to count the occurrence of each point in the array $coordinates$.

Next, we enumerate each point $(x_2, y_2)$ in the array $coordinates$. Since the range of $k$ is $[0, 100]$, and the result of $x_1 \oplus x_2$ or $y_1 \oplus y_2$ is always greater than or equal to $0$, we can enumerate the result $a$ of $x_1 \oplus x_2$ in the range $[0,..k]$. Then, the result of $y_1 \oplus y_2$ is $b = k - a$. In this way, we can calculate the values of $x_1$ and $y_1$, and add the occurrence of $(x_1, y_1)$ to the answer.

The time complexity is $O(n \times k)$, and the space complexity is $O(n)$. Here, $n$ is the length of the array $coordinates$.
