582. Kill Process πŸ”’

Description

You have n processes forming a rooted tree structure. You are given two integer arrays pid and ppid, where pid[i] is the ID of the ith process and ppid[i] is the ID of the ith process's parent process.

Each process has only one parent process but may have multiple children processes. Only one process has ppid[i] = 0, which means this process has no parent process (the root of the tree).

When a process is killed, all of its children processes will also be killed.

Given an integer kill representing the ID of a process you want to kill, return a list of the IDs of the processes that will be killed. You may return the answer in any order.

 

Example 1:

Input: pid = [1,3,10,5], ppid = [3,0,5,3], kill = 5
Output: [5,10]
Explanation: The processes colored in red are the processes that should be killed.

Example 2:

Input: pid = [1], ppid = [0], kill = 1
Output: [1]

 

Constraints:

  • n == pid.length
  • n == ppid.length
  • 1 <= n <= 5 * 104
  • 1 <= pid[i] <= 5 * 104
  • 0 <= ppid[i] <= 5 * 104
  • Only one process has no parent.
  • All the values of pid are unique.
  • kill is guaranteed to be in pid.

Solutions

Solution 1: DFS

We first construct a graph $g$ based on $pid$ and $ppid$, where $g[i]$ represents all child processes of process $i$. Then, starting from the process $kill$, we perform depth-first search to obtain all killed processes.

The time complexity is $O(n)$, and the space complexity is $O(n)$. Here, $n$ is the number of processes.
