It was given the flexibility of 1 day to take as per our convenience. The Environment of Coderbyte was good. Ten MCQs and five coding questions were asked.

Q1. 
Reverse the String Problem Statement
You are given a string STR which contains alphabets, numbers, and special characters. Your task is to reverse the string.
Example:
Input:
STR = "abcde"
Output:
"e...read more
Ans. 
Reverse a given string containing alphabets, numbers, and special characters.
• Iterate through the string from the end to the beginning and append each character to a new string.

• Use built-in functions like reverse() or StringBuilder in languages like Python or Java for efficient reversal.

• Handle edge cases like empty string or strings with only one character separately.

• Ensure to consider the constraints provided such as t...read more

Q2. 
Anagram Substring Search
Given two strings 'STR' and 'PTR', identify all starting indices of 'PTR' anagram substrings in 'STR'. Two strings are anagrams if one can be rearranged to form the other.
Input:
...read more
Ans. 
Find starting indices of anagram substrings of PTR in STR.
• Iterate through STR using a sliding window of size M to check for anagrams with PTR.

• Use a hashmap to store the frequency of characters in PTR and the current window of STR.

• If the hashmap matches, add the starting index of the window to the result list.

Ans. 
Determine if two expressions are equivalent by evaluating them with different variable assignments.
• Parse the expressions to evaluate them with different variable assignments.

• Use a stack to keep track of operands and operators while evaluating the expressions.

• Check if the final results of both expressions are the same to determine equivalence.

Ans. 
Find the shortest substring in a string that contains all unique characters.
• Use a sliding window approach to find the shortest substring with all unique characters.

• Keep track of the characters in the current window using a hashmap.

• Move the window's start index to the right until all characters are included.

• Return the shortest substring found.

• Example: For input 'abcba', the output should be 'abc'.

Afternoon at 2 pm, The interviewer was friendly. Two questions and then general discussion.

Q1. What is the event loop and event queue in system design?
Ans. 
The event loop is a mechanism that allows for efficient handling of multiple events in a system, while the event queue stores events waiting to be processed.
• The event loop continuously checks for events in the event queue and processes them one by one.

• Events can include user inputs, system notifications, or timer expirations.

• The event queue acts as a buffer, holding events until the event loop is ready to process them.
