Q1. What is class what is object what is different between private protected and public and default
Ans. 
A class is a blueprint for creating objects, while an object is an instance of a class. Private, protected, public, and default are access modifiers in object-oriented programming.
• A class is a template or blueprint that defines the properties and behaviors of objects.

• An object is an instance of a class, created using the class blueprint.

• Private access modifier restricts access to class members within the same class.

• Pro...read more

Q2. What is object ?
Ans. 
An object is a self-contained entity that consists of both data and behavior.
• Objects are instances of classes in object-oriented programming.

• They encapsulate data and provide methods to manipulate that data.

• Objects can interact with each other through method calls and message passing.

• Examples of objects include a car, a person, or a bank account.

Q3. What is public?
Ans. 
Public is a keyword in programming languages that denotes the accessibility of a class, method, or variable.
• Public is one of the access modifiers in object-oriented programming.

• It allows the class, method, or variable to be accessed from any other class or package.

• Public members are part of the public API of a software component.

• Example: public class MyClass { ... }

• Example: public void myMethod() { ... }

• Example: public

Q4. What is private?
Ans. 
In programming, private is an access modifier that restricts the visibility of a class member to within its own class.
• Private is used to encapsulate data and prevent direct access from outside the class.

• Private members can only be accessed through public methods or properties.

• Private variables are often used to store internal state or implementation details.

• Private methods are used for internal logic and are not meant

Q5. What is protected
Ans. 
protected is an access modifier in object-oriented programming that restricts access to members within the same package or subclasses.
• protected is one of the four access modifiers in Java, along with public, private, and default.

• Members declared as protected can be accessed within the same package or by subclasses.

• Protected members are not accessible outside the package unless accessed through inheritance.

• Example: prot...read more

Q1. Dependency injection in c#
Ans. 
Dependency injection in C# is a design pattern where dependencies are injected into a class rather than the class creating them itself.
• Dependency injection helps in achieving loose coupling between classes.

• It makes the code more testable and maintainable.

• There are different ways to implement dependency injection in C#, such as constructor injection, property injection, and method injection.

Q1. 
Cycle Detection in a Singly Linked List
Determine if a given singly linked list of integers forms a cycle or not.
A cycle in a linked list occurs when a node's next points back to a previous node in the ...read more
Ans. 
The task is to determine if a given singly linked list forms a cycle or not.
• A cycle occurs when a node's next points back to a previous node in the list.

• To solve this problem, we can use the Floyd's Cycle-Finding Algorithm.

• The algorithm uses two pointers, one moving at a normal pace and the other moving twice as fast.

• If there is a cycle, the fast pointer will eventually catch up to the slow pointer.

• If the fast pointer ...read more

Minimum Depth of a Binary Tree

Ans. 
The minimum depth of a binary tree is the number of nodes along the shortest path from the root node down to the nearest leaf node.
• The minimum depth can be found by performing a breadth-first search (BFS) traversal of the binary tree

• During the BFS traversal, keep track of the current level and increment the depth by 1 for each level

• Stop the BFS traversal when a leaf node is encountered and return the depth as the minim

Q2. 
Intersection of Two Arrays Problem Statement
Given two arrays A and B with sizes N and M respectively, both sorted in non-decreasing order, determine their intersection.
The intersection of two arrays in...read more
Ans. 
The problem is to find the intersection of two sorted arrays.
• Use two pointers to iterate through the arrays.

• Compare the elements at the current pointers and move the pointers accordingly.

• If the elements are equal, add it to the intersection array and move both pointers.

• If the element in the first array is smaller, move the first pointer.

• If the element in the second array is smaller, move the second pointer.

• Repeat until...read more

Q3. What is the difference between a mutex and a semaphore?
Ans. 
A mutex is a binary semaphore used for mutual exclusion, while a semaphore is a generalized synchronization primitive.
• Mutex is used to protect a critical section of code, allowing only one thread to access it at a time.

• Semaphore is used to control access to a shared resource, allowing multiple threads to access it simultaneously.

• Mutex has ownership, meaning the thread that locks it must unlock it.

• Semaphore does not hav...read more
