Validate an IP Address

Problem Statement
Write a class called myRegex which will contain a string pattern. You need to write a regular expression and assign it to the pattern such that it can be used to validate an IP address. Use the following definition of an IP address:
IP address is a string in the form "A.B.C.D", where the value of A, B, C, and D may range from 0 to 255. Leading zeros are allowed. The length of A, B, C, or D can't be greater than 3.
Some valid IP address:
000.12.12.034
121.234.12.12
23.45.12.56
Some invalid IP address:
000.12.234.23.23
666.666.23.23
.213.123.23.32
23.45.22.32.
I.Am.not.an.ip
In this problem you will be provided strings containing any combination of ASCII characters. You have to write a regular expression to find the valid IPs.
Just write the myRegex class, and we will append your code after the following piece of code automatically before running it:
import java.util.regex.Matcher;
import java.util.regex.Pattern;
import java.util.Scanner;

class Solution{

    public static void main(String []args)
    {
        Scanner in = new Scanner(System.in);
        while(in.hasNext())
        {
            String IP = in.next();
            System.out.println(IP.matches(new myRegex().pattern));
        }

    }
}
(The class written by you MUST NOT be public)
Sample Input
000.12.12.034
121.234.12.12
23.45.12.56
00.12.123.123123.123
122.23
Hello.IP
Sample Output
true
true
true
false
false
false

CODILITY: Determine whether given string of parentheses is properly nested.

Task description A string S consisting of N characters is called  properly nested  if: S is empty; S has the form " (U) " where U is a properly nested string; S has the form " VW " where V and W are properly nested strings. For example, string " (()(())()) " is properly nested but string " ()) " isn't. Write a function: class Solution { public int solution(String S); } that, given a string S consisting of N characters, returns 1 if string S is properly nested and 0 otherwise. For example, given S = " (()(())()) ", the function should return 1 and given S = " ()) ", the function should return 0, as explained above. Assume that: N is an integer within the range [ 0 .. 1,000,000 ]; string S consists only of the characters " ( " and/or " ) ". Complexity: expected worst-case time complexity is O(N); expected worst-case space complexity is O(1) (not counting the storage requi...

Distinct: Compute number of distinct values in an array.

Task description Write a function class Solution { public int solution(int[] A); } that, given a zero-indexed array A consisting of N integers, returns the number of distinct values in array A. Assume that: N is an integer within the range [ 0 .. 100,000 ]; each element of array A is an integer within the range [ −1,000,000 .. 1,000,000 ]. For example, given array A consisting of six elements such that: A[0] = 2 A[1] = 1 A[2] = 1 A[3] = 2 A[4] = 3 A[5] = 1 the function should return 3, because there are 3 distinct values appearing in array A, namely 1, 2 and 3. Complexity: expected worst-case time complexity is O(N*log(N)); expected worst-case space complexity is O(N), beyond input storage (not counting the storage required for input arguments). Elements of input arrays can be modified. class Solution { public int solution ( int [] A) { // write your code in Java SE 8 int len=A.length; int count= 1 ; ...

Dominator: Find an index of an array such that its value occurs at more than half of indices in the array.

Dominator Find an index of an array such that its value occurs at more than half of indices in the array. Task description A zero-indexed array A consisting of N integers is given. The dominator  of array A is the value that occurs in more than half of the elements of A. For example, consider array A such that A[0] = 3 A[1] = 4 A[2] = 3 A[3] = 2 A[4] = 3 A[5] = -1 A[6] = 3 A[7] = 3 The dominator of A is 3 because it occurs in 5 out of 8 elements of A (namely in those with indices 0, 2, 4, 6 and 7) and 5 is more than a half of 8. Write a function class Solution { public int solution(int[] A); } that, given a zero-indexed array A consisting of N integers, returns index of any element of array A in which the dominator of A occurs. The function should return −1 if array A does not have a dominator. Assume that: N is an integer within the range [ 0 .. 100,000 ]; each element of array A is an integer within the range [ −2,147,483,648 .. 2,147,483...
