Dictionaries and Maps Hacker Rank Solution in C/C++

https://www.hackerrank.com/challenges/linkedin-practice-dictionaries-and-maps/problem

C++ code that passes all test cases

#include <iostream>
#include <map>
using namespace std;

int main()
 {
map<string,long>pb;
int n;
string name;
cin>>n;
for(int i=0;i<n;i++)
{
        long num;
    cin>>name>>num;
    pb[name]=num;
}
while(cin>>name)
{
    if(pb[name])
            cout<<name<<"="<<pb[name]<<endl;
        else
            cout<<"Not found"<<endl;
}
}

C Code that passes only 2 test cases and timed out for other test cases:

#include <stdio.h>
#include <stdlib.h>
#include <string.h>
struct node
{
             
               int data;
               char name[1000];
               struct node *next;
};

int main()
{
        int n;
        scanf("%d",&n);
        struct node *head[26]={NULL},*c;
        for(int i=0;i<n;i++)
        {
            struct node * newnode=(struct node *)malloc(sizeof(struct node));
            int val;
            char temp[1000];
            scanf("%s%d",temp,&val);
            newnode->data=val; strcpy(newnode->name,temp);
               newnode->next = NULL;
               if(head[temp[0]-'a'] == NULL)
                    head[temp[0]-'a'] = newnode;
               else
               {
                    for(c=head[temp[0]-'a'];c->next != NULL;c=c->next);
                    c->next=newnode;
               }
         
        }
         for(int i=0;i<n;i++)
        {
            char temp[1000];int flag=1;
            scanf("%s",temp);
            if(head[temp[0]-'a'] == NULL)
                 printf("Not found\n");
            else
               {
                              for(c=head[temp[0]-'a'];c!=NULL;c=c->next)
                              {
                                  if(strcmp(temp,c->name) == 0)
                                  {
                                      printf("%s=%d\n",c->name,c->data);
                                      flag=0;break;
                                  }
                              }
                              if(flag)
                                printf("Not found\n");
                           
               }
        }
        return 0;
}

  1. i also tried this program using c but i also have the same timeout error you mentioned . Is this possible to pass all the test case using c program ?.thank you .

    1. solution in c

      #include
      #include
      #include

      struct phonebook_entry {
      char *name, *phone;
      };

      int compare_strings(const void *lhs, const void *rhs) {
      return strcmp(*((const char **) lhs), *((const char **) rhs));
      }

      int main() {
      // Caveat: no input validation,
      // This program relies on a POSIX-2013 extension ('m') for
      // allocating memory in scanf (see http://pubs.opengroup.org/
      // onlinepubs/9699919799.2013edition/functions/scanf.html).

      int n;
      if (scanf("%d", &n) != 1) {
      fprintf(stderr, "could not read 'n'\n");
      exit(1);
      }

      // read the names and phone numbers
      struct phonebook_entry entries[n];
      for (int i = 0; i < n; ++i)
      if (scanf("%ms %ms", &entries[i].name, &entries[i].phone) != 2) {
      fprintf(stderr, "could not read phonebook entry #%d\n", i);
      exit(1);
      }

      // sort for binary search
      qsort(entries, n, sizeof(*entries), compare_strings);

      // read names from stdin and look them up
      char *name;
      while (scanf("%ms", &name) == 1) {
      const struct phonebook_entry *found = bsearch(
      &name, entries, n, sizeof(*entries), compare_strings);
      if (found)
      printf("%s=%s\n", found->name, found->phone);
      else
      printf("Not found\n");
      free(name);
      }

      // free all allocated memory
      for (int i = 0; i < n; ++i) {
      free(entries[i].phone);
      free(entries[i].name);
      }
      }

    1. u can solve it qsort(),bsearch() inbuilt functions in C and of course using strcmp. Try it
