Left Rotation in an Array using Java

Left Rotation in an Array using Java

There are two methods implemented by me here :-

1) Using extra Array 
  1.  Get new position of  a current element using formula.
  2.  Add the element in the new position in a new array.


2) Using same Array:- This is little bit complex

  1. hold variable at index i.
  2. find new index for variable.
  3. hold variable present at new index.
  4. place variable at index i to this new index.
  5. assign i to new index variable.
  6. repeat steps until count is not equal to lenght of an array which simply means all variable got covered.



package Arrays;

/*
 * 12345 to 34512
 */

/*
 * sample input
 * 5 4(d=4 that is 4 rotations)
 1 2 3 4 5
 sample output
 51234
 */
public class LeftRotation {
 
 public static void printArray(int[] arr)
 {
  
  for(int i=0;i<arr.length;i++)
  {
  System.out.print(" "+arr[i]);
  }
  System.out.println(" ");
 }
 
 //method which returns rotated array using extra array
 public static int[] leftRotate(int[] arr, int rotation)
 {
  int temparr[]=new int[arr.length];
  int pos;
  for(int i=0;i<arr.length;i++)
  {
   pos=(arr.length+(i-rotation))%arr.length;
   temparr[pos]=arr[i];
  }
  printArray(temparr);
  
  return temparr;
 }

 //method which returns rotated array using same array
 public static int[] leftRotate2(int[] arr, int rotation)
 {
  
  int pos,tempinit,temppos=arr[0],i=0,c=0;
  
  while(c!=arr.length){
   tempinit=temppos;
   pos=(arr.length+(i-rotation))%arr.length;
   temppos=arr[pos];
   arr[pos]=tempinit; 
   i=pos;
   c++;
  }
  
  printArray(arr);
  
  return arr;
 }

 
 
 public static void main(String[] args)
 {
  int[] arr={1,2,3,4,5};
  leftRotate(arr, 3);
  leftRotate2(arr, 3);
 }
}

Five Programming language you should learn in 2015

1.   Java- This language turned 20 this year but still the popularity is never ending for it.

This is also one of the high paying languages in the world. 2. Python- Python that has been changed a lot in last decade is ruling in the heart of all start-ups over the world. The speed through which it develops code in a less time is the reason for its popularity and is started getting a good share of percentage in the web development world. Often with Django framework and various libraries, it is becoming on of the favorite language for the programmers.  It is heavily used ...
