Basically the question queries for the number of substring in some range [L, R]. I have implemented a segment tree to solve this question. I have closely followed the editorial.
I have created a struct to represent a node of the segment tree.
Can someone explain to me how to make this program faster? I'm guessing faster I/O is the key here. Is that so?
#include <iostream>
#include <vector>
#include <algorithm>
#include <string>
#define ll long long
using namespace std;
struct stnode
{
ll ans; // the answer for this interval
ll pre[3]; // pre[i] denotes number of prefixes of interval which modulo 3 give i
ll suf[3]; // suf[i] denotes number of suffixes of interval which modulo 3 give i
ll total; // sum of interval modulo 3
void setLeaf(int value)
{
if (value % 3 == 0) ans = 1;
else ans = 0;
pre[0] = pre[1] = pre[2] = 0;
suf[0] = suf[1] = suf[2] = 0;
pre[value % 3] = 1;
suf[value % 3] = 1;
total = value % 3;
}
void merge(stnode leftChild, stnode rightChild)
{
ans = leftChild.ans + rightChild.ans;
for (int i = 0; i < 3; i++)
for (int j = 0; j < 3; j++)
if ((i + j) % 3 == 0) ans += leftChild.suf[i] * rightChild.pre[j];
pre[0] = pre[1] = pre[2] = 0;
suf[0] = suf[1] = suf[2] = 0;
for (int i = 0; i < 3; i++)
{
pre[i] += leftChild.pre[i] + rightChild.pre[(3 - leftChild.total + i) % 3];
suf[i] += rightChild.suf[i] + leftChild.suf[(3 - rightChild.total + i) % 3];
}
total = (leftChild.total + rightChild.total) % 3;
}

I am getting TLE for larger test cases, ie subtasks 3 and 4 (check the problem page). For subtasks 1 and 2, it gets accepted.
[www.codechef.com/viewsolution/5909107] is an accepted solution. It has pretty much the same code structure except that scanf is used instead of cin. But, I turned off the sync_with_stdio so that shouldn't be a differentiator, right?
I found out what was making this program slow. In the buildST function, I pass the string digits. Since the function is recursive, and the input is fairly large, this creates many copies of the string digits thus incurring large overhead.
I declared a char digits[] at the start of the program and modified the method buildST as follows (basically same but without string digits as a parameter:
void buildST(int si, int ss, int se)
{
if (ss == se)
{
segtree[si].setLeaf(digits[ss] - '0');
return;
}
long left = 2 * si + 1, right = 2 * si + 2, mid = (ss + se) / 2;
buildST(left, ss, mid);
buildST(right, mid + 1, se);
segtree[si].merge(segtree[left], segtree[right]);
}
This solution got accepted.
