To find the first non-repeating character, traverse the string and track character counts, returning the first with a count of one.
Count Characters: Use a hash map or dictionary to count occurrences of each character in the string.
Traverse String: Iterate through the string again to find the first character with a count of one.
Example: For the string 'swiss', the counts are {'s': 3, 'w': 1, 'i': 1}. The first non-...
A steady string contains characters B, D, U, and H, each appearing exactly n/4 times, where n is the string length.
Character Count: Count occurrences of B, D, U, and H in the string.
Length Check: Ensure the string length is divisible by 4 for steady condition.
Example 1: 'HBDU' has 1 of each character, steady since length is 4.
Example 2: 'BBUDHUDH' has 2 B's, 2 D's, 2 U's, and 2 H's, steady since length is 8.

Left rotating a binary tree involves shifting nodes to the left, changing the structure while maintaining the tree's properties.
Definition: A left rotation on a binary tree involves moving the right child of a node to become the new root of that subtree.
Example: For a node with value 10, if it has a right child 15, after left rotation, 15 becomes the new root, and 10 becomes the left child of 15.
Implementation: Th...
Implement a stack using two queues to achieve LIFO behavior.
Use two queues: queue1 and queue2.
For push operation, enqueue the element in queue1.
For pop operation, dequeue all elements from queue1 to queue2 except the last one, then dequeue the last element from queue1.
Swap the names of queue1 and queue2 after pop operation to maintain the stack structure.
Example: Push(1), Push(2), Pop() returns 2, Push(3), Pop() r...
Convert a string into a zigzag pattern on a given number of rows and read line by line.
The zigzag pattern is formed by writing characters diagonally down and up across multiple rows.
For example, with 3 rows and the string 'PAYPALISHIRING', the pattern looks like: P A H N A P L S I I G Y I A
To construct the result, iterate through the string and place characters in the appropriate row based on the current...

Circuit Breaker is a design pattern used in software development to prevent system overload and failures.
Circuit Breaker monitors the number of failures and opens when a threshold is reached.
It can be in states like closed, open, or half-open.
Closed state allows normal operation, open state prevents further requests, and half-open state allows limited requests to check if the system is back to normal.
Examples include H...
Stream.map() transforms each element in a stream, while Stream.flatMap() transforms each element into a stream of values.
