tomatocream 1dec88aaf2 feat: populate note files with problem descriptions and code stubs
Add populate-notes.mjs that fetches problem descriptions and
Python/C++ code stubs from LeetCode's GraphQL API. Populated
all 197 NeetCode 150 note files with:
- Problem description (examples, constraints)
- Python code stub (function signature)
- C++ code stub (function signature + includes)

API responses cached in leetcode/.cache/leetcode/ for instant re-runs.

TODO 0074. Search a 2D Matrix   medium

You are given an m x n integer matrix matrix with the following two properties:

  • Each row is sorted in non-decreasing order.
  • The first integer of each row is greater than the last integer of the previous row.

Given an integer target, return true if target is in matrix or false otherwise.

You must write a solution in O(log(m * n)) time complexity.

Example 1:

Input: matrix = [[1,3,5,7],[10,11,16,20],[23,30,34,60]], target = 3
Output: true

Example 2:

Input: matrix = [[1,3,5,7],[10,11,16,20],[23,30,34,60]], target = 13
Output: false

Constraints:

  • m == matrix.length
  • n == matrix[i].length
  • 1 <= m, n <= 100
  • -10^{4} <= matrix[i][j], target <= 10^{4}

TODO Approach

Write your approach here.

TODO Python

class Solution:
    def searchMatrix(self, matrix: List[List[int]], target: int) -> bool:

TODO C++

class Solution {
public:
    bool searchMatrix(vector<vector<int>>& matrix, int target) {
        
    }
};
