1622. Fancy Sequence
Problem Description
The task is to build a data structure that allows efficient manipulation of an integer sequence. The Fancy
class supports adding a new element to the sequence, applying an increment operation to all elements in the sequence, multiplying all elements by a given integer, and retrieving the element at a specific index position modulo 10^9 + 7
. It must perform these operations in such a way that getIndex
queries return the correct updated value after any number of addAll
and multAll
operations have been applied, or return -1
if the index is out of bounds.
Intuition
The main challenge in the given problem is that applying addAll
and multAll
operations naively to every element each time they are called will lead to a time complexity that is not feasible for large sequences and frequent updates.
To efficiently handle this, we need to defer these operations as much as possible so that we don’t actually apply them until necessary (i.e., when an element's value is queried with getIndex
).
This can be achieved using a Segment Tree, a data structure that allows efficient updates and queries on ranges of elements in a sequence. However, this is not a standard segment tree implementation. It needs to support not only the addition and multiplication operations but also the propagation of these operations to its child nodes (a process called lazy propagation). This ensures that we don’t perform the operation for every element immediately, but only apply it to segments and update child segments when needed.
The segment tree nodes are augmented with additional information that allows combining these operations efficiently. In this case, each node in the segment tree will contain three pieces of information: the total result of applying all queued operations to the segment (the value), the sum of all addAll
increments that need to be applied to the segment (add
), and the product of all multAll
multiplications that need to be applied (mul
).
The tree is built so that leaf nodes correspond to elements of our sequence. When an operation is called, we update the relevant segment(s) in the tree, marking the operation as pending to be applied later (lazy propagation). Upon a getIndex
query, as we traverse the tree, all pending operations for that particular segment are applied, ensuring that the returned value is correct.
The provided solution code implements this logic in a SegmentTree
class providing the necessary methods for adding, multiplying and querying nodes.

Solution Approach
The solution approach utilizes a segment tree to handle range updates and queries efficiently. Let's walk through the main components of the implementation:
Segment Tree Structure (Node
class)
Each node represents a segment of the sequence. It contains:
left
andright
: Pointers to child nodes.l
andr
: The segment's range (inclusive).mid
: The midpoint for dividing the segment for child nodes.v
: The computed value with all operations applied.add
: The accumulated addition to be applied to the segment.mul
: The accumulated multiplication to be applied to the segment.
The root node represents the entire sequence range.
Key Operations of SegmentTree
class
-
modifyAdd
andmodifyMul
: These methods apply the add and multiply operations to a specified range. Both operations update the current node's deferred operation fields (add
andmul
) and values. They rely on recursion to propagate changes to relevant child nodes lazily. -
query
: This method retrieves the value at a specific index. If any deferred operations are pending on the path from root to the target index,query
applies them. It ensures that the final result returned is up to date with all applied operations. -
pushup
: After child nodes are updated,pushup
updates the current node's value (the sum of its children's values, moduloMOD
), ensuring the segment tree accurately represents the current sequence values. -
pushdown
: This method is where the lazy propagation magic happens. When accessing a node's children,pushdown
applies all the pendingadd
andmul
operations to its child nodes to ensure they have the correct deferred values. This way, the operations are propagated down the tree as necessary without unnecessary computation.
Interactions in Fancy
class
The Fancy
class employs the following methods to interact with the SegmentTree
:
append
: Simply increments the sequence's count (self.n
) and usesmodifyAdd
to append the new value to the end of the sequence.addAll
: CallsmodifyAdd
to apply the addition operation across the entire sequence.multAll
: CallsmodifyMul
to apply the multiplication operation across the entire sequence.getIndex
: Utilize thequery
method to return the modified value at the index if within bounds, else-1
.
Through this implementation, the Fancy
class wraps the efficient range update and query functionalities provided by the SegmentTree
, allowing it to process a sequence of alterations and fetches with much better performance than a naive approach.

Start EvaluatorExample Walkthrough
Consider a Fancy
object where we perform the following sequence of operations to understand how the solution approach works in practice:
- Append
2
to the sequence. - Multiply all elements by
3
. - Add
4
to all elements. - Append
6
to the sequence. - Multiply all elements by
2
. - Retrieve the value at index
0
. - Retrieve the value at index
1
.
Here's what happens at each step:
-
Append
2
: The sequence is[2]
. The segment tree is updated to have a root node representing this value. -
Multiply all elements by
3
: Instead of multiplying the single element directly, the root node'smul
value is updated to3
. The sequence is conceptually[6]
, but no computation is done yet. -
Add
4
to all elements: Similarly, the root node'sadd
value is updated to4
. The sequence should be[10]
now, but again, no operations are applied yet. -
Append
6
: The sequence now is[10, 6]
, with6
to be added at the end of the segment tree structure, increasing the sequence count. The root is split into two children to accommodate this change. -
Multiply all elements by
2
: The whole tree'smul
value is updated to2
, and theadd
value is appropriately adjusted considering the previous multiply operation. The sequence conceptually becomes[20, 12]
. -
Retrieve the value at index
0
: ThegetIndex
query now triggers the lazy propagation. The segment tree updates the value of the node representing index0
with themul
andadd
values, computing(2*3) * (2) + (4*2)
to return20
. -
Retrieve the value at index
1
: For index1
,getIndex
would compute(6*3) * (2) + (4*2)
and return44
.
At every operation that mutates the sequence (addAll
, multAll
), we update only the values and operations pending on the segment tree without recalculating the entire sequence. The getIndex
operation applies all pending operations that are on the path to the requested element. This lazy propagation and segmented representation grant efficiency, ensuring that querying an element's value after numerous addAll
and multAll
operations are still done quickly.

Time and Space Complexity
The provided code implements a segment tree to manage a dynamic array with support for range additions, multiplications, and retrieval of an element by its index.
Time Complexity
-
SegmentTree Construction: The segment tree is lazily constructed. Each node is only created when needed. Thus, the initial construction is O(1).
-
modifyAdd (Adding to a Range): It has a complexity of O(log n) where n is the range of the segment tree because the function recursively splits the range [l, r] often in two.
-
modifyMul (Multiplying to a Range): Similar to modifyAdd, modifyMul affects nodes along the depth of the segment tree, taking O(log n) for each call.
-
query (Retrieving an Element): The time complexity is O(log n) since it traverses from root to leaf to find the value at a specific index.
Overall, each operation—append, addAll, multAll, and getIndex—performed on the Fancy
class is utilizing the above operations, hence each has a O(log n) time complexity.
Space Complexity
-
Overall Space Complexity: The space complexity is O(n) for storing
n
elements in the worst case where all nodes in the tree are utilized. -
SegmentTree Node Storage: Each SegmentTree node has constant space for attributes, so the space complexity due to a single node is O(1). But since a new node is created for each unique segment during operations, the total space used by all nodes can reach up to O(n).
-
Lazy Propagation: Since the tree utilizes lazy propagation for adding and multiplying, there's an additional constant space used for each node to store the
add
andmul
values, but it doesn't change the overall O(n) space complexity.
In conclusion, the operations are efficient in terms of time especially for range updates and queries, but can potentially use significant space depending on the number of elements and operations performed.
