Should she delete her LinkedIn post or not?
Asking for a friend, Since last 3 months, she has been facing multiple issues including mental harassment by her manager at her workplace. She tried all official channels including reporting to the HR and even to the CEO eventually, but surprisingly, nothing happened. Infact, as a retaliation, she was put on PIP last month by here manager. So finally as a response to this continuous harassment, she went to LinkedIn and called out her manager, the company and even the CEO. And this is what she has received in response! The company is threatening her of legal actions and now we are confused, whether to delete the posts or to maintain our stand. Any help would be highly recommended at this point!

Ans. 

The House Robber problem involves maximizing loot from houses without robbing adjacent ones.

  • Dynamic Programming approach is used to solve this problem.

  • Maintain an array where each index represents the maximum loot up to that house.

  • For each house, decide to either rob it (add its value to the max loot from two houses back) or skip it (carry forward the max loot from the previous house).

  • Example: For houses with valu...

An Intern was asked
Q. How do you handle tradeoffs?
Ans. 

I prioritize based on importance and impact, considering both short-term and long-term consequences.

  • Identify the key factors involved in the tradeoff

  • Evaluate the potential outcomes of each option

  • Consider the short-term and long-term implications

  • Communicate with stakeholders to gather input and perspectives

An Intern was asked
Q. Implement a level order traversal.
Ans. 

Level order traversal visits nodes in a tree level by level, from left to right.

  • Use a queue to keep track of nodes at each level.

  • Start with the root node and enqueue it.

  • While the queue is not empty, dequeue a node, process it, and enqueue its children.

  • Repeat until all levels are traversed.

  • Example: For a tree with root 1, left child 2, right child 3, the order is [1, 2, 3].
