Problem
Design and implement a data structure for Least Recently Used (LRU) cache. It should support the following operations: get
and set
.
get(key)
- Get the value (will always be positive) of the key if the key exists in the cache, otherwise return -1.
set(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.
Solution
class LRUCache{
struct Node{
Node(int k, int v) : key(k), value(v){}
int key;
int value;
};
int cap;
int size;
list<Node> m_list;
unordered_map<int, list<Node>::iterator> mp;
public:
LRUCache(int capacity):cap(capacity),size(0) {
}
int get(int key) {
if(mp.find(key) == mp.end()) return -1;
auto pos = mp[key];
int val = pos->value;
m_list.erase(pos);
m_list.push_front(Node(key,val));
mp[key] = m_list.begin();
return val;
}
void set(int key, int value) {
auto pos = mp.find(key);
// Not in cache
if(pos == mp.end()) {
if(size >= cap) {
int k = (m_list.back()).key;
mp.erase(k);
m_list.pop_back();
}
else {
size++;
}
m_list.push_front(Node(key,value));
}
// in cache
else {
m_list.erase(mp[key]);
m_list.push_front(Node(key,value));
}
mp[key] = m_list.begin();
}
};
