The interviewers asked me to justify each point written in the case solution. There were lot of cross questions also because I was coming from the same industry
Be prepared with the assumptions and statements mentioned in the case. You will be tested on every statement because Arcesium makes sure that candidate well understood the case. You might not remember every case detail. It is ok to ask the interviewer for a copy of case for reference
This round tested my previous work experience and some parts of the case
Be well prepared with every detail mentioned in the resume. If you are coming from the same industry, you might be asked to whiteboard your company's business model or the data flow of the applications you worked on

The king can move only towards the corner and not diagonally. How many ways can a king go from one end of the chessboard to the diagonally opposite square?
The king can only move towards the corner, so there are limited options for each move
The total number of moves required to reach the opposite corner is 14
Using combinatorics, the total number of ways the king can reach the opposite corner is 3432

Find max path from bottom left to top right in a matrix using only up and right steps.
Start from bottom left corner and move towards top right corner.
At each step, choose the maximum value between the cell above and the cell to the right.
Keep track of the sum of values in the chosen path.
The final sum is the maximum possible sum of values in a path from bottom left to top right.
The most likely number to occur as the final sum is 100.
The sum of the outcomes of the dice rolls will keep increasing until it reaches or exceeds 100.
Since the dice have equal probabilities for each outcome, the sum will have a higher chance of reaching 100.
The probability of rolling a sum greater than 100 decreases as the sum gets larger.
Finding probability of point (1,0) lying in longest cut of three random points on circle of radius 1 centered at (0,0)
The longest cut will be the one that spans the smallest angle between two of the three points
The probability can be found by calculating the area of the region where the longest cut includes point (1,0)
This can be done by finding the angle between (1,0) and the two other points and using trigonometry to...
I was interviewed in Aug 2016.
Find the magic number in a sorted array where value and index are same.
Iterate through the array and check if the value and index are same
If found, return the value
If not found, return -1
Searching an element in a sorted 2D matrix
Start from the top-right corner or bottom-left corner
Compare the target element with the current element
Move left or down if the target is smaller or move right or up if the target is larger

Number of ways to jump n stairs if a person can climb 1 or 2 stairs.
Use dynamic programming to solve the problem.
The number of ways to jump n stairs is equal to the sum of ways to jump n-1 stairs and ways to jump n-2 stairs.
Base cases: if n=0, return 1 and if n=1, return 1.
An LRU cache can be made using a doubly linked list and a hash map.
Create a doubly linked list to store the cache items.
Create a hash map to store the key-value pairs.
When a new item is added, check if the cache is full. If it is, remove the least recently used item from the linked list and hash map.
When an item is accessed, move it to the front of the linked list.
When an item is removed, remove it from both the linked
Probability of winning a dice game where the one with lesser number wins.
The probability of winning depends on the number of sides on the dice.
If the dice has an odd number of sides, the probability of winning is higher for the second player.
If the dice has an even number of sides, the probability of winning is equal for both players.
Compute working days using given functions f, g, and h.
To compute the 3rd working day, apply function g three times to function f.
To compute the 2nd working day of the previous month, apply function h to function f, then apply function g twice.
To compute the 4th working day of the next month, apply function g four times to function f.
