A tree is a data structure consisting of nodes connected by edges, with a single root node and no cycles.
Nodes represent elements of the tree, and edges represent the relationships between them.
Each node can have zero or more child nodes, and each child node can have its own children.
Trees are commonly used in computer science for organizing and searching data, such as in binary search trees.
Examples of trees incl...
Graphs are non-linear data structures with cycles while trees are hierarchical data structures without cycles.
Graphs can have cycles while trees cannot
Graphs can have multiple root nodes while trees have only one
Graphs can have disconnected components while trees are always connected
Graphs can have directed or undirected edges while trees have only directed edges
Examples of graphs include social networks, road net...
A graph can be called a tree if it is connected and has no cycles.
A tree is a type of graph with no cycles.
It must be connected, meaning there is a path between any two vertices.
It has n-1 edges, where n is the number of vertices.
Examples include family trees, file directory structures, and decision trees.
Program to determine if a graph is a tree using adjacency matrix
A graph is a tree if it is connected and has no cycles
Check if the graph is connected by performing a depth-first search or breadth-first search
Check if the graph has cycles by performing a depth-first search and tracking visited nodes

There are two straightforward data structure and algorithm questions, while the others primarily consist of multiple-choice questions, mostly focusing on nodes and Python.
In the telephonic round, they primarily assess your problem-solving skills. The interviewer asked me a binary search question, which I was able to solve, but it took me a considerable amount of time to arrive at the solution. This was likely the main reason for my rejection.

- Q1. CREATE A LINKED LIST
- Ans.
A linked list is a data structure consisting of nodes where each node points to the next node in the sequence.
Create a Node class with data and next pointer
Initialize a head pointer to null
Add nodes by updating next pointers
- Q2. FIND THE LOOP IN LINKED LIST
- Ans.
To find a loop in a linked list, use Floyd's Tortoise and Hare algorithm.
Use two pointers, slow and fast, to traverse the linked list.
If there is a loop, the two pointers will eventually meet at the same node.
To find the start of the loop, reset one pointer to the head and move both pointers at the same pace.
