Given N elements, write a program that prints the length of the longest increasing subsequence whose adjacent element difference is one. 

Examples: 

Input : a[] = {3, 10, 3, 11, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 12} 
Output :
Explanation: 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8 is the longest increasing subsequence whose adjacent element differs by one. 

Input : a[] = {6, 7, 8, 3, 4, 5, 9, 10} 
Output :
Explanation: 6, 7, 8, 9, 10 is the longest increasing subsequence 

Naive Approach: For any particular element, find the length of the subsequence starting from the first element. Print the longest length of the subsequence thus formed. The time complexity of this approach will be O(n). 

C++




#include <bits/stdc++.h>
using namespace std;
int LongestSubsequence(int a[], int n)
{
    // initialize x to the first element of the array;
    int x = a[0];
    // initialize count to Zero
    int count = 0, y = 0;
    // iterate for all elements
    for (int i = 0; i < n; i++) {
        if (a[i] == (x + y)) {
            count++;
            y++;
        }
    }
    return count;
}
int main()
{
    int a[] = { 6, 7, 8, 3, 4, 5, 9, 10 };
    int n = sizeof(a) / sizeof(a[0]);
    cout << LongestSubsequence(a, n);
 
    return 0;
}


Java

        y++;
      }
    }
    return count;
  }

Time Complexity: O(n)
Auxiliary Space: O(1)

Dynamic Programming Approach: Let DP[i] store the length of the longest subsequence which ends with A[i]. For every A[i], if A[i]-1 is present in the array before i-th index, then A[i] will add to the increasing subsequence which has A[i]-1. Hence, DP[i] = DP[ index(A[i]-1) ] + 1. If A[i]-1 is not present in the array before i-th index, then DP[i]=1 since the A[i] element forms a subsequence which starts with A[i]. Hence, the relation for DP[i] is: 

If A[i]-1 is present before i-th index:  

  • DP[i] = DP[ index(A[i]-1) ] + 1

else:

  • DP[i] = 1

Given below is the illustration of the above approach:  

C++




// CPP program to find length of the
// longest increasing subsequence
// whose adjacent element differ by 1
#include <bits/stdc++.h>
using namespace std;
 
// function that returns the length of the
// longest increasing subsequence
// whose adjacent element differ by 1
int longestSubsequence(int a[], int n)
{
    // stores the index of elements
    unordered_map<int, int> mp;
 
    // stores the length of the longest
    // subsequence that ends with a[i]
    int dp[n];
    memset(dp, 0, sizeof(dp));
 
    int maximum = INT_MIN;
 
    // iterate for all element
    for (int i = 0; i < n; i++) {
 
        // if a[i]-1 is present before i-th index
        if (mp.find(a[i] - 1) != mp.end()) {
 
            // last index of a[i]-1
            int lastIndex = mp[a[i] - 1] - 1;
 
            // relation
            dp[i] = 1 + dp[lastIndex];
        }
        else
            dp[i] = 1;
 
        // stores the index as 1-index as we need to
        // check for occurrence, hence 0-th index
        // will not be possible to check
        mp[a[i]] = i + 1;
 
        // stores the longest length
        maximum = max(maximum, dp[i]);
    }
 
    return maximum;
}

{
    int a[] = { 3, 10, 3, 11, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 12 };
    int n = sizeof(a) / sizeof(a[0]);

Complexity Analysis:

  • Time Complexity: O(N), as we are using a loop to traverse N times.
  • Auxiliary Space: O(N), as we are using extra space for dp and map m.
