255. Verify Preorder Sequence in Binary Search Tree

class Solution(object):
    def verifyPreorder(self, preorder):
        if not preorder:return True
        largerThan = float('-inf')
        stack = []
        for n in preorder:
            if n < largerThan: return False
            while stack and n > stack[-1]:  # 这里可以改成O（1）space 不需要stack，只要比前一个大就一直往前找就行了
                largerThan = stack.pop()
            stack.append(n)
        return True

1003. Check If Word Is Valid After Substitutions

很简单的题，一遍过。但是又是看了标签是stack的才肯定。 

class Solution(object):
    def isValid(self, S):
        stack = []
        for c in S:
            stack.append(c)
        cur = ''
        while stack:
            cur = stack.pop() + cur
            if len(cur) >= 3 and cur[:3] == 'abc':
                cur = cur[3:]
        return not cur

 

402. Remove K Digits

Well, one can simply scan from left to right, and remove the first "peak" digit; the peak digit is larger than its right neighbor. One can repeat this procedure k times, and obtain the first algorithm

class Solution(object):
    def removeKdigits(self, num, k):
        out = []
        for n in num:
            while k and out and out[-1] > n:
                out.pop()
                k -= 1
            out.append(n)
        return ''.join(out[:-k or No
