Round 1 - Technical 

(10 Questions)

  • Q1. Basic OOP's Concepts
  • Q2. What's Copy Constructor and how and why it is used
  • Ans. 

    Copy constructor creates a new object by copying the values of an existing object.

    • Copy constructor is used to create a new object with the same values as an existing object.

    • It is invoked when a new object is initialized with an existing object.

    • It is used to avoid shallow copy and ensure deep copy of objects.

    • Example: MyClass obj1; MyClass obj2 = obj1; //copy constructor called to create obj2

  • Answered by AI
  • Q3. What's shallow and deep copy
  • Ans. 

    Shallow copy creates a new object with the same reference as the original, while deep copy creates a new object with a new reference.

    • Shallow copy only copies the reference to the original object, so changes made to the copy will affect the original object.

    • Deep copy creates a new object with a new reference, so changes made to the copy will not affect the original object.

    • In Python, shallow copy can be made using the cop...

  • Q4. How vector works internally
  • Ans. 

    Vectors are dynamic arrays that allocate memory dynamically. They work by storing elements in contiguous memory locations.

    • Vectors allocate memory dynamically and store elements in contiguous memory locations

    • They can be resized dynamically as needed

    • Accessing elements is done using an index, similar to arrays

    • Inserting or deleting elements in the middle of a vector can be expensive as it requires shifting all subsequent e...

  • Answered by AI
  • Q5. Different containers in STL
  • Ans. 

    STL provides various containers like vector, list, map, set, etc.

    • Vector: Dynamic array with contiguous memory allocation

    • List: Doubly linked list

    • Map: Associative container with key-value pairs

    • Set: Associative container with unique keys

    • Deque: Double-ended queue

    • Stack: LIFO data structure

    • Queue: FIFO data structure

  • Answered by AI
  • Q6. What's difference between ordered map and unordered map
  • Ans. 

    Ordered map maintains the order of insertion while unordered map does not.

    • Ordered map is implemented using a balanced binary search tree while unordered map is implemented using a hash table.

    • Ordered map is useful when we need to maintain the order of insertion while unordered map is useful when we need faster access to elements.

    • Example of ordered map: std::map in C++, Example of unordered map: std::unordered_map in C++

  • Answered by AI
  • Q7. What's' polymorphism and how it works
  • Ans. 

    Polymorphism is the ability of an object to take on many forms. It allows objects of different classes to be treated as if they were the same type.

    • Polymorphism is achieved through method overriding and method overloading.

    • Method overriding is when a subclass provides a specific implementation of a method that is already provided by its parent class.

    • Method overloading is when a class has two or more methods with the same...

  • Q8. How compiler differentiate between different function with same signature. Name mangling
  • Ans. 

    Name mangling is used by compilers to differentiate between different functions with the same signature.

    • Name mangling is a process of encoding/decoding function names to include additional information such as parameter types and namespaces.

    • This allows the compiler to differentiate between functions with the same name and signature.

    • For example, in C++, two functions with the same name and signature but in different name...

  • Q10. How does virtual function works. What's Vptr and Vtable. Why virtual function is needed
  • Ans. 

    Virtual functions allow dynamic binding of functions at runtime. Vptr and Vtable are used to implement this feature.

    • Virtual functions are declared in base class and can be overridden in derived classes.

    • Vptr is a pointer to Vtable which contains addresses of virtual functions.

    • Virtual function is needed to achieve polymorphism and to allow derived classes to have their own implementation of a function.

    • If the distance is less than the radius of the circle, the point is inside the circle

    • If the distance is equal to the radius of the circle, the point is on the circle

    • If the distance is greater than the radius of the circle, the point is outside the circle
