GSWCP Week - 4

The document contains two code snippets for solving different problems. The first snippet addresses counting the number of swaps needed to arrange pairs in an array, while the second snippet focuses on marking and counting 'O's in a grid that are not connected to the boundary. Both solutions utilize efficient data structures and algorithms to achieve their respective goals.
