Algorithms Exercises solved in Typescript, running with Jest testing suite. Developed with TDD.
Go to Install and run
This repository is part of a series that share and solve the same objectives, with the difference that each one is based on a different software ecosystem, depending on the chosen programming language:
-
For academic purposes, it is an backup of some algorithm exercises (with their solutions), proposed by various sources: leetcode, hackerrank, projecteuler, ...
-
The solutions must be written on "vanilla code", that is, avoiding as much as possible the use of external libraries (in runtime).
-
Adoption of methodology and good practices. Each exercise is implemented as a unit test set, using TDD (Test-driven Development) and Clean Code ideas.
Foundation of a project that supports:
- Explicit typing when the language supports it, even when it is not mandatory.
- Static Code Analysis (Lint) of code, scripts and documentation.
- Uniform Code Styling.
- Unit Test framework.
- Coverge collection. High coverage percentage. Equal or close to 100%.
- Pipeline (Github Actions). Each command must take care of its return status code.
- Docker-based workflow to replicate behavior in any environment.
- Other tools to support the reinforcement of software development good practices.
You can run tests in the following ways:
- Install and run directly require runtime tools installed in your SO.
- Install and run with make require runtime tools and "make" installed in your SO.
- Install and in Docker require Docker and docker-compose installed.
- (⭐️) Install and in Docker with make require docker-compose and make installed.
⭐️: Prefered way.
Using a NodeJS runtime in your SO. You must install dependencies:
npm installEvery problem is a function with unit test.
Unit test has test cases and input data to solve the problem.
Run all tests:
npm run testYou can change test running behaviour using some environment variables as follows:
| Variable | Values | Default |
|---|---|---|
| LOG_LEVEL | debug, warning, error, info |
info |
| BRUTEFORCE | true, false |
false |
LOG_LEVEL: change verbosity level in outputs.BRUTEFORCE: enable or disable running large tests. (long time, large amount of data, high memory consumition).
Run tests with debug outputs:
LOG_LEVEL=debug npm run testRun brute-force tests with debug outputs:
BRUTEFORCE=true LOG_LEVEL=debug npm run testmake tool is used to standardizes the commands for the same tasks
across each sibling repository.
Run tests (libraries are installed as dependency task in make):
make testRun tests with debug outputs:
make test -e LOG_LEVEL=debugRun brute-force tests with debug outputs:
make test -e BRUTEFORCE=true -e LOG_LEVEL=debugAlternative way, use environment variables as prefix:
BRUTEFORCE=true LOG_LEVEL=debug make testBuild an image of the test stage. Then creates and ephemeral container an run tests.
BRUTEFORCE and LOG_LEVEL environment variables are passing from current environment using docker-compose.
docker-compose --profile testing run --rm algorithm-exercises-ts-testTo change behavior using environment variables, you can pass to containers in the following ways:
From host using docker-compose (compose.yaml) mechanism:
BRUTEFORCE=true LOG_LEVEL=debug docker-compose --profile testing run --rm algorithm-exercises-ts-testOverriding docker CMD, as parameter of make "-e":
docker-compose --profile testing run --rm algorithm-exercises-ts-test make test -e LOG_LEVEL=DEBUG -e BRUTEFORCE=truemake compose/build
make compose/testTo pass environment variables you can use docker-compose or overriding CMD and passing to make as "-e" argument.
Passing environment variables using docker-compose (compose.yaml mechanism):
BRUTEFORCE=true LOG_LEVEL=debug make compose/testRunning container with development target. Designed for development workflow on top of this image. All source application is mounted as a volume in /app directory. Dependencies should be installed to run so, you must install dependencies before run (or after a dependency add/change).
# Build development target image
docker-compose build --compress algorithm-exercises-ts-dev
# run ephemeral container to install dependencies using docker runtime
# and store them in host directory (by bind-mount volume)
docker-compose run --rm algorithm-exercises-ts-dev npm install --verbose
# Run ephemeral container and override command to run test
docker-compose run --rm algorithm-exercises-ts-dev npm run testFollowing command simulates a standarized pipeline across environments, using docker-compose and make.
make compose/build && make compose/lint && make compose/test && make compose/run- Build all Docker stages and tag relevant images.
- Run static analysis (lint) checks
- Run unit tests
- Run a "final" production ready image as a final container. Final "production" image just shows a minimal "production ready" build (with no tests).

As Project Euler says:
https://projecteuler.net/about#publish
I learned so much solving problem XXX, so is it okay to publish my solution elsewhere?
It appears that you have answered your own question. There is nothing quite like that "Aha!" moment when you finally beat a problem which you have been working on for some time. It is often through the best of intentions in wishing to share our insights so that others can enjoy that moment too. Sadly, that will rarely be the case for your readers. Real learning is an active process and seeing how it is done is a long way from experiencing that epiphany of discovery. Please do not deny others what you have so richly valued yourself.
However, the rule about sharing solutions outside of Project Euler does not apply to the first one-hundred problems, as long as any discussion clearly aims to instruct methods, not just provide answers, and does not directly threaten to undermine the enjoyment of solving later problems. Problems 1 to 100 provide a wealth of helpful introductory teaching material and if you are able to respect our requirements, then we give permission for those problems and their solutions to be discussed elsewhere.
If you have better answers or optimal solutions, fork and PR-me
Enjoy 😁 !
