PU LRU Cache

Jan 01, 1970

Design and implement a data structure for Least Recently Used (LRU) cache. It should support the following operations: get and put.

  • get(key) - Get the value (will always be positive) of the key if the key exists in the cache, otherwise return -1.
  • put(key, value) - Set or insert the value if the key is not already present. When the cache reached its capacity, it should invalidate the least recently used item before inserting a new item.

Follow up:

  • Could you do both operations in O(1) time complexity?

Example:

LRUCache cache = new LRUCache( 2 /* capacity */ );

cache.put(1, 1);
cache.put(2, 2);
cache.get(1);       // returns 1
cache.put(3, 3);    // evicts key 2
cache.get(2);       // returns -1 (not found)
cache.put(4, 4);    // evicts key 1
cache.get(1);       // returns -1 (not found)
cache.get(3);       // returns 3
cache.get(4);       // returns 4

Python Solution:

class DoublyLinkedList(object):

    def __init__(self, key, val):
        self.key = key
        self.val = val
        self.pre = None
        self.next = None

class LRUCache(object):

    def __init__(self, capacity):
        """
        :type capacity: int
        """
        self.capacity = capacity
        self.size = 0
        self.head = DoublyLinkedList(0, 0)
        self.tail = DoublyLinkedList(0, 0)
        self.head.next, self.tail.pre = self.tail, self.head
        self.d = {}

    def get(self, key):
        """
        :type key: int
        :rtype: int
        """
        if key not in self.d: return -1
        node = self.d[key]
        node.pre.next, node.next.pre = node.next, node.pre
        self.head.next.pre, self.head.next, node.next, node.pre = node, node, self.head.next, self.head
        return node.val

    def put(self, key, value):
        """
        :type key: int
        :type value: int
        :rtype: void
        """
        if key in self.d:
            node = self.d[key]
            node.val = value
            node.pre.next, node.next.pre = node.next, node.pre
        elif self.size == self.capacity:
            node = self.tail.pre
            del self.d[node.key]
            node.key = key
            node.val = value
            self.d[key] = node
            node.pre.next, node.next.pre = node.next, node.pre
        else:
            node = DoublyLinkedList(key, value)
            self.d[key] = node
            self.size += 1
        self.head.next.pre, self.head.next, node.next, node.pre = node, node, self.head.next, self.head


# Your LRUCache object will be instantiated and called as such:
# obj = LRUCache(capacity)
# param_1 = obj.get(key)
# obj.put(key,value)

Summary:

  • doubly linked list + hash table
