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 1780. Check if Number is a Sum of Powers of Three   medium

Given an integer n, return true if it is possible to represent /~n~ as the sum of distinct powers of three./ Otherwise, return false.

An integer y is a power of three if there exists an integer x such that y == 3^{x}.

Example 1:

Input: n = 12
Output: true
Explanation: 12 = 31 + 32

Example 2:

Input: n = 91
Output: true
Explanation: 91 = 30 + 32 + 34

Example 3:

Input: n = 21
Output: false

Constraints:

  • 1 <= n <= 10^{7}

TODO Python

    def checkPowersOfThree(self, n: int) -> bool:

TODO C++

class Solution {
public:
    bool checkPowersOfThree(int n) {
        
    }
};
