A Senior Software Engineer was asked 2mo ago
Q. Given a string, find the first non-repeating character in it and return its index. If it does not exist, return -1.
Ans. 

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-...

Q. Given a string composed of the characters B, D, U, and H, determine if the string is steady by checking whether each character appears exactly n/4 times, where n is the total length of the string. For examp...
Ans. 

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.

Q. How do you perform a left rotation on a binary tree?
Ans. 

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.
