Round 1 - Technical 

(2 Questions)

  • Q1. What is the difference between a tuple and a list in Python
  • Ans. 

    A tuple is immutable and uses parentheses, while a list is mutable and uses square brackets in Python.

    • Tuples are immutable, meaning their elements cannot be changed after creation

    • Lists are mutable, allowing for elements to be added, removed, or modified

    • Tuples are created using parentheses, while lists use square brackets

    • Example: tuple = (1, 2, 3) vs list = [1, 2, 3]

  • Answered by AI
  • Q2. How do you access elements in a python dictionary
  • Ans. 

    Access elements in a Python dictionary using keys

    • Use square brackets [] with the key to access the value in the dictionary

    • Use the get() method to access a value with a default return if the key does not exist

    • Use the keys() method to get a list of all keys in the dictionary

Round 1 - Technical 

(2 Questions)

  • Q1. What is the internal implementation of Hashing and what is collision?
  • Ans. 

    Hashing is a technique used to map data to a fixed-size array, collision occurs when two different inputs produce the same hash value.

    • Hashing involves using a hash function to map data to a fixed-size array.

    • Collision happens when two different inputs produce the same hash value.

    • Common techniques to handle collisions include chaining and open addressing.

  • Answered by AI
  • Q2. Is time complexity of HashMap always O(1) ?
  • Ans. 

    No, time complexity of HashMap is not always O(1).

    • Time complexity of HashMap is O(1) on average, but can degrade to O(n) in worst case scenarios.

    • Worst case scenarios include hash collisions, which can lead to linear probing and degrade performance.

    • Load factor and capacity of the HashMap can also affect time complexity.

    • In scenarios where many keys hash to the same index, the time complexity can degrade.
