Problem
You are given a table, Functions, containing two columns: X and Y.
Column | Type |
---|---|
X | Integer |
Y | Integer |
Two pairs (X1, Y1) and (X2, Y2) are said to be symmetric pairs if X1 = Y2 and X2 = Y1.
Write a query to output all such symmetric pairs in ascending order by the value of X. List the rows such that X1 ≤ Y1.
Sample Input
X | Y |
---|---|
20 | 20 |
20 | 20 |
20 | 21 |
23 | 22 |
22 | 23 |
21 | 20 |
Sample Output
20 20
20 21
22 23
Solution – Symmetric Pairs
MySQL Code
SELECT X, Y FROM FUNCTIONS F1 WHERE EXISTS (SELECT * FROM FUNCTIONS F2 WHERE F2.Y = F1.X AND F2.X = F1.Y AND F2.X > F1.X) AND (X != Y) UNION SELECT X, Y FROM FUNCTIONS F1 WHERE X = Y AND ( (SELECT COUNT(*) FROM FUNCTIONS WHERE X = F1.X AND Y = F1.X) > 1) ORDER BY X;
What are symmetric pairs in Hackerrank?
Two pairs (a, b) and (c, d) are said to be symmetric if c is equal to b and a is equal to d. For example, (10, 20) and (20, 10) are symmetric. Given an array of pairs find all symmetric pairs in it
How do you find a symmetric pair?
For every pair, check if its second element is found in the hash table. If yes, then compare the first element with the value of the matched entry of the hash table. If the value and the first element match, it is displayed as a symmetric pair.
