File-Level Changes

Change Details Files
Optimize palindrome construction for large n and divisibility by k using DP over half-digits.
  • Replace brute-force search over all n-digit numbers with a digit-DP building only the first half of the palindrome while tracking remainders modulo k.
  • Track best digit sequence per remainder to avoid state explosion and reconstruct the palindrome early when a valid divisible configuration is found.
  • Provide a fallback reconstruction from DP state and return a default string when no valid palindrome exists.
solutions/3260/01.py
Tighten rectangle validation logic to correctly exclude any interior/border points except the four corners.
  • Ensure candidate opposite-corner points differ in both x and y coordinates.
  • Use a corner set and streamlined containment check that rejects any non-corner point lying inside or on the edges of the candidate rectangle.
  • Retain maximal area tracking only for rectangles passing the stricter validity test.
solutions/3380/01.py
Change JSON normalization to emit deterministically sorted, Prettier-style formatted JSON instead of generic pretty-printing.
  • Add a recursive formatter that prints objects, numeric arrays, and other arrays with custom indentation and line-breaking rules approximating a Prettier config.
  • Sort object keys when formatting nested JSON values for stable output.
  • Update the sort-and-write routine to render the entire JSON file via the custom formatter and append a trailing newline.
scripts/normalize_json.py
Speed up minValidStrings by replacing a prefix set with a Trie-backed DP over target.
  • Introduce a Trie node structure where all prefixes of each word are encoded via is_end flags.
  • Build the Trie from words marking every prefix as valid.
  • For each starting index in target, traverse the Trie to discover all reachable valid prefixes and update the DP table accordingly.
solutions/3291/01.py
explanations/3291/en.md
Rework the minimum time to restore a string problem loop to reason directly in terms of time steps t and removed characters using precomputed Z-function.
  • Replace iteration over suffix starts with a loop over time steps t where each step removes t*k characters.
  • For each t, check if the remaining suffix matches the prefix using Z-values and return the earliest valid t.
  • Keep the existing ceiling-based fallback when no matching suffix-prefix alignment is found.
solutions/3413/01.py
explanations/3413/en.md
Add English editorial-style explanations for multiple LeetCode problems including strategy, complexity, and walkthroughs.
  • Describe problem restatements, time/space complexities, and high-level approaches for each problem.
  • Contrast brute-force and optimized strategies, emphasizing key insights such as DP, greedy, bit manipulation, and pattern enumeration.
  • Provide small, table-based walkthroughs to illustrate the algorithms step by step.

Hey there - I've reviewed your changes - here's some feedback:

  • In solutions/3260/01.py, the inner loop repeatedly calls pow(10, pos, k) and pow(10, mirror_pos, k) for the same positions; precomputing these powers for all indices once before the DP loop will significantly reduce overhead.
  • In solutions/3380/01.py, membership checks like corner3 in points / corner4 in points and the per-iteration tuple(point) conversions could be optimized by building a single set of point tuples up front and reusing it for existence and corner checks.
  • In scripts/normalize_json.py, the formatter claims to follow printWidth=150 but uses a hardcoded total_length < 100 threshold for deciding single-line arrays; align this heuristic with the documented print width to better match the stated Prettier style.

## Overall Comments
- In `solutions/3260/01.py`, the inner loop repeatedly calls `pow(10, pos, k)` and `pow(10, mirror_pos, k)` for the same positions; precomputing these powers for all indices once before the DP loop will significantly reduce overhead.
- In `solutions/3380/01.py`, membership checks like `corner3 in points` / `corner4 in points` and the per-iteration `tuple(point)` conversions could be optimized by building a single `set` of point tuples up front and reusing it for existence and corner checks.
- In `scripts/normalize_json.py`, the formatter claims to follow `printWidth=150` but uses a hardcoded `total_length < 100` threshold for deciding single-line arrays; align this heuristic with the documented print width to better match the stated Prettier style.

<issue_to_address>
**issue (bug_risk):** The fallback `return str(k) * n` likely violates the palindrome/divisibility contract.

This fallback string isn’t guaranteed to be a palindrome for multi‑digit `k`, nor divisible by `k`, so it changes behavior from the previous "no solution" case (empty string) to returning an invalid result. If the problem guarantees a solution, this branch can be removed; otherwise, either restore the empty-string behavior or construct a result that still meets the palindrome and divisibility constraints.

<issue_to_address>
**suggestion (performance):** Repeated `pow(10, ...)` calls in the inner loop could be precomputed to reduce overhead.

Since `pos` and `mirror_pos` only depend on the outer loop and `n`, you can precompute `pow10[i] = pow(10, i, k)` once and reuse it inside the inner loops. This avoids repeated modular exponentiation in the hot path and should scale better for larger `n` and `k`.

Suggested implementation:

```python
                    # Calculate new remainder
                    if pos == mirror_pos:
                        power = pow10[pos]
                        new_rem = (rem + digit * power) % k
                    else:
                        left_power = pow10[pos]
                        right_power = pow10[mirror_pos]
                        new_rem = (rem + digit * (left_power + right_power)) % k

```

To fully implement the optimization, you also need to:
1. Define `pow10` once before this loop, in a scope where `n` and `k` are known, e.g. just before the outer loop over `pos`:
   `pow10 = [pow(10, i, k) for i in range(n)]`
2. Ensure that `pow10` is reused for all iterations where `n` and `k` remain constant, rather than recomputing it inside inner loops.

**question:** The advertised Prettier config (e.g., `trailingComma=es5`) does not match the actual output behavior.

The docstring claims `trailingComma=es5` and `printWidth=150`, but the formatter never emits trailing commas for objects/arrays, and line wrapping uses a `total_length < 100` heuristic for arrays. Please either update the implementation to match these Prettier options more closely, or reword the docstring to describe the output as “Prettier-like” without listing specific Prettier config values.

**suggestion:** List formatting assumes homogeneously numeric lists based only on the first element.

This branch only inspects `value[0]`, so mixed-type lists (e.g., `[1, "x", 2]`) are still treated as numeric and formatted one-per-line. That can be misleading. Please check that all elements are numeric (or otherwise guarantee homogeneity) before applying the numeric-list formatting.
