Q4: What is Static member function in Classes? Can static member functions call normal data member of classes?
Q5: you are given a 2D grid, each index has some value associated with it. From Bottom right cornor you need to find a path till Top left cornor where you can get maximum sum of values from index occuring on the path, You can go in Up direction, Left direction or diagonal up-left direction?
I was asked for approach (No coding was done on compiler)

Q4: What are tries, and give one application of tries.
Q5: Given one array you need to give approach to find out all the permutation of the elements in it. (I gave recursive approach)
Q6: Given the same array and value k, you need to tell if sum of subset can be equal to k. (This question is modification of 0/1 Knapsack. I explained the recursive approach)
Interviewer told me to wait for last HR round (I was on cloud 9 after listening to this as it was elimination round)

This round happened around 6:30pm in evening, i got the call from the interviewer to join Zoom call immediately. It was HR+(Probability mix round).

As i was unable to solve 2 probability question in Round 2. The interviewer immediately asked me 2 probability questions back to back.
Q2: What is bayes theorem and a numerical on it.
Q3: If there is a frog which can go one step forward with probability 3/4. and one step backward with 1/4. What is expectancy to reach 7 steps forward.
I was unable to solve the last probability ques. Was on right track almost in end of interview.
2/18 students were selected for intern JPMC(Quant Research @ 1.5Lakhs stipend)
