## 124. Binary Tree Maximum Path Sum

Topic: Tree, DFS

Given a non-empty binary tree, find the maximum path sum.

For this problem, a path is defined as any sequence of nodes from some starting node to any node in the tree along the parent-child connections. The path must contain at least one node and does not need to go through the root.

Example 1:

Input: [1,2,3]

1
/ \
2   3

Output: 6

Example 2:

Input: [-10,9,20,null,null,15,7]

-10
/ \
9  20
/  \
15   7

Output: 42

## 128. Longest Consecutive Sequence

Topic: Array, Union Find

Given an unsorted array of integers, find the length of the longest consecutive elements sequence.

Your algorithm should run in O(n) complexity.

Example:

Input: [100, 4, 200, 1, 3, 2]
Output: 4
Explanation: The longest consecutive elements sequence is [1, 2, 3, 4]. Therefore its length is 4.

## 140. Word Break II

Topic: DP, Backtracking

Given a non-empty string s and a dictionary wordDict containing a list of non-empty words, add spaces in s to construct a sentence where each word is a valid dictionary word. Return all such possible sentences.

Note:

• The same word in the dictionary may be reused multiple times in the segmentation.
• You may assume the dictionary does not contain duplicate words.

Example 1:

Input:
s = "catsanddog"
wordDict = ["cat", "cats", "and", "sand", "dog"]
Output:
[
"cats and dog",
"cat sand dog"
]

Example 2:

Input:
s = "pineapplepenapple"
wordDict = ["apple", "pen", "applepen", "pine", "pineapple"]
Output:
[
"pine apple pen apple",
"pineapple pen apple",
"pine applepen apple"
]
Explanation: Note that you are allowed to reuse a dictionary word.

Example 3:

Input:
s = "catsandog"
wordDict = ["cats", "dog", "sand", "and", "cat"]
Output:
[]

## 149. Max Points on a Line

Topic: Hash table, Math

Given n points on a 2D plane, find the maximum number of points that lie on the same straight line.

Example 1:

Input: [[1,1],[2,2],[3,3]]
Output: 3
Explanation:
