Given an integer array, find all the consecutive subsequences of alternating odd and even numbers.
Also print the total number of such subsequences.
All the subsequences should be unique.
The numbers in the list may or may not be unique.
Example:
array = [1,2,5]
output1: [[1], [1,2], [2], [2,5], [5], [1,2,5]]
output2: 6
My Code:
res = []
lst = [1,2,5]
for i in range(len(lst)-1):
res.append([lst[i]])
if abs(lst[i] - lst[i 1]) % 2 == 1:
res.append([lst[i], lst[i 1]])
print(res)
Output: [[1], [1, 2], [2], [2, 5]]
How can I get the remaining subsequences?

You care about duplicates:
def alternating_sublists(xs: list[int]) -> list[list[int]]:
results = []
for i in range(len(xs)):
if [xs[i]] not in results:
results.append([xs[i]])
for j in range(i 1, len(xs)):
if (xs[j] - xs[j-1]) % 2 != 0:
if xs[i:j 1] not in results:
results.append(xs[i:j 1])
else:
break
return results
print(list(alternating_sublists([1, 2, 5])))
print(list(alternating_sublists([1, 2, 2, 2, 1])))
print(list(alternating_sublists([1, 2, 3, 2, 3, 2, 1])))
Output:
[[1], [1, 2], [1, 2, 5], [2], [2, 5], [5]]
[[1], [1, 2], [2], [2, 1]]
[[1], [1, 2], [1, 2, 3], [1, 2, 3, 2], [1, 2, 3, 2, 3], [1, 2, 3, 2, 3, 2], [1, 2, 3, 2, 3, 2, 1], [2], [2, 3], [2, 3, 2], [2, 3, 2, 3], [2, 3, 2, 3, 2], [2, 3, 2, 3, 2, 1], [3], [3, 2], [3, 2, 3], [3, 2, 3, 2], [3, 2, 3, 2, 1], [2, 3, 2, 1], [3, 2, 1], [2, 1]]
It's not extremely efficient (there's many lookups of lists already in the result). Depending on the application you may want a more complex data structure to save expensive 'list in large list' tests.
The basic logic is this:
- each sequence has to start at some index, so try sequences starting at all possible indices
for i in range(len(xs)):
- the sequence with length 1 always meets your rule, so add it if it wasn't there yet
- the other sequences start at index
i
and end at indexi 1
or greaterfor j in range(i 1, len(xs)):
- break from the loop whenever the modulo is 0 for the last two items in list you're about to add, since this sequence doesn't meet the rule, and longer ones wouldn't either.
Slightly faster and shorter, using tuples internally, but essentially the same:
def alternating_sublists2(xs: list[int]) -> list[list[int]]:
results = set()
for i in range(len(xs)):
results.add((xs[i],))
for j in range(i 1, len(xs)):
if (xs[j] - xs[j-1]) % 2 != 0:
results.add(tuple(xs[i:j 1]))
else:
break
return [list(t) for t in results]
- shorter as the previous
if
statements are now internal toset.add()
- faster because looking up tuples is faster than looking up strings, and testing membership of a set is faster than testing membership of a list
- not quite as fast as you might like, since it then has to convert the result back to a list of lists, to get the result you required.
However, no guarantees on the order of the sublists in the result, so this is no good if you need the sublists in the order they are first found.

Here's a recursive solution to the problem. It iterates the elements of the list, adding the results from recursing the balance of the list when there is a change from odd to even between the current element and the next:
def odd_even(list, start=None):
result = []
for i, val in enumerate(list):
if start is None or i == 0:
if [val] not in result:
result.append([val])
if len(list) > i 1 and (list[i 1] - val) % 2 == 1:
for res in odd_even(list[i 1:], val):
if [val] res not in result:
result = result [[val] res]
return result
print(odd_even([1, 2, 5]))
print(odd_even([1, 2, 2, 2, 1]))
print(odd_even([1, 2, 3, 2, 3, 2, 1]))
Output:
[[1], [1, 2], [1, 2, 5], [2], [2, 5], [5]]
[[1], [1, 2], [2], [2, 1]]
[[1], [1, 2], [1, 2, 3], [1, 2, 3, 2], [1, 2, 3, 2, 3], [1, 2, 3, 2, 3, 2], [1, 2, 3, 2, 3, 2, 1], [2], [2, 3], [2, 3, 2], [2, 3, 2, 3], [2, 3, 2, 3, 2], [2, 3, 2, 3, 2, 1], [3], [3, 2], [3, 2, 3], [3, 2, 3, 2], [3, 2, 3, 2, 1], [2, 3, 2, 1], [3, 2, 1], [2, 1]]

Your accepted output is silly, because it's obvious that every subsequence of a "good" sequence is also "good" and there's no need to enumerate them all. Let's concentrate on finding longest alternating sequences:
def split(a):
buf = [a[0]]
for i in range(1, len(a)):
if a[i] % 2 != a[i - 1] % 2:
buf.append(a[i])
else:
yield buf
buf = [a[i]]
if buf:
yield buf
test = [1, 2, 5, 7, 3, 8, 9, 9, 10, 11]
result = list(split(test))
# [[1, 2, 5], [7], [3, 8, 9], [9, 10, 11]]
To get your expected answer, take each list from the result and generate all sublists of it. This is another, much simpler task.

This looks like a gray code sequence with additional twist: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gray_code
Code:
import math
def powerOf2(k):
if k == 0:
return 1
else:
return 2*powerOf2(k-1)
def gray_encode(n):
return n ^ n >> 1
def count_required_sequence(lst):
n = len(lst)
sequence_nr = powerOf2(n)
results = []
results_sequence = -1
for i in range(sequence_nr):
gray = gray_encode(i)
gray_r = list("{:>010b}".format(gray))[::-1]
#print(gray_r)
count = sum(el == "1" for el in gray_r)
if count > 1:
results_sequence = 1
results.append(list())
for k in range(len(gray_r)):
if k < len(gray_r)-1:
if gray_r[k] == "1" and gray_r[k 1] == "1":
if abs(lst[k] - lst[k 1]) % 2 == 1:
results[results_sequence].append(lst[k])
results[results_sequence].append(lst[k 1])
is_there_count1 = results.count(list(set(results[results_sequence])))
results[results_sequence] = list(set(results[results_sequence]))
is_there_count = results.count(results[results_sequence])
if is_there_count > 1 or is_there_count1 > 1:
index = results.index(list(set(results[results_sequence])))
results.pop(results_sequence)
results_sequence -= 1
elif count == 1 :
results_sequence = 1
results.append(list())
pos = [index for index,value in enumerate(gray_r) if value == "1" ]
results[results_sequence].append(lst[pos[0]])
results = (list(filter(lambda a: a != [], results)))
print("results: {}".format(results))
# Driver code
if __name__ == "__main__" :
# lst = [ 1, 2, 5, 6, 7];
lst = [ 1, 2, 5 ];
count_required_sequence(lst);
Output:
results: [[1], [1, 2], [2], [2, 5], [1, 2, 5], [5]]
Change 010b to a bigger number is len(lst) is bigger then 10
gray_r = list("{:>010b}".format(gray))[::-1]
