[leetcode] 238. Product of Array Except Self _ Algorithm Problem Solve for python



1. Problem

238. Product of Array Except Self

Given an integer array nums, return an array answer such that answer[i] is equal to the product of all the elements of nums except nums[i].

The product of any prefix or suffix of nums is guaranteed to fit in a 32-bit integer.

You must write an algorithm that runs in O(n) time and without using the division operation.

Example 1:

Input: nums = [1,2,3,4]
Output: [24,12,8,6]

Example 2:

Input: nums = [-1,1,0,-3,3]
Output: [0,0,9,0,0]

Constraints:

  • 2 <= nums.length <= 10^5
  • -30 <= nums[i] <= 30
  • The product of any prefix or suffix of nums is guaranteed to fit in a 32-bit integer.

2. Solution

I solved this problem like this.

class Solution:
    def productExceptSelf(self, nums: List[int]) -> List[int]:
        if nums.count(0) >= 2:
            return [0] * len(nums)
        elif nums.count(0) == 1:
            total = reduce((lambda x, y: x * y), [x for x in nums if x != 0])
            return [0 if num != 0 else total for num in nums]
        else:
            total = reduce((lambda x, y: x * y), nums)
            return [total//num for num in nums]
        return []
