Q1. 
Cycle Detection in a Singly Linked List
Determine if a given singly linked list of integers forms a cycle or not.
A cycle in a linked list occurs when a node's next points back to a previous node in the ...read more
Ans. 
The task is to determine if a given singly linked list forms a cycle or not.
• A cycle occurs when a node's next points back to a previous node in the list.

• To solve this problem, we can use the Floyd's Cycle-Finding Algorithm.

• The algorithm uses two pointers, one moving at a normal pace and the other moving twice as fast.

• If there is a cycle, the fast pointer will eventually catch up to the slow pointer.

• If the fast pointer ...read more

Minimum Depth of a Binary Tree

Ans. 
The minimum depth of a binary tree is the number of nodes along the shortest path from the root node down to the nearest leaf node.
• The minimum depth can be found by performing a breadth-first search (BFS) traversal of the binary tree

• During the BFS traversal, keep track of the current level and increment the depth by 1 for each level

• Stop the BFS traversal when a leaf node is encountered and return the depth as the minim

Q2. 
Intersection of Two Arrays Problem Statement
Given two arrays A and B with sizes N and M respectively, both sorted in non-decreasing order, determine their intersection.
The intersection of two arrays in...read more
Ans. 
The problem is to find the intersection of two sorted arrays.
• Use two pointers to iterate through the arrays.

• Compare the elements at the current pointers and move the pointers accordingly.

• If the elements are equal, add it to the intersection array and move both pointers.

• If the element in the first array is smaller, move the first pointer.

• If the element in the second array is smaller, move the second pointer.

• Repeat until...read more

Q3. What is the difference between a mutex and a semaphore?
Ans. 
A mutex is a binary semaphore used for mutual exclusion, while a semaphore is a generalized synchronization primitive.
• Mutex is used to protect a critical section of code, allowing only one thread to access it at a time.

• Semaphore is used to control access to a shared resource, allowing multiple threads to access it simultaneously.

• Mutex has ownership, meaning the thread that locks it must unlock it.

• Semaphore does not hav...read more

Q1. 
Binary Tree Right View Problem Statement
Given a binary tree of integers, your task is to print the right view of it. The right view represents a set of nodes visible when the tree is viewed from the righ...read more
Ans. 
The task is to print the right view of a binary tree, representing nodes visible from the right side in top-to-bottom order.
• Traverse the tree level by level and keep track of the rightmost node at each level

• Print the rightmost node of each level to get the right view of the tree

• Use a queue for level order traversal and a map to store the rightmost nodes

Q2. 
0/1 Knapsack Problem Statement
A thief is planning to rob a store and can carry a maximum weight of 'W' in his knapsack. The store contains 'N' items where the ith item has a weight of 'wi' and a value of...read more
Ans. 
Yes, the 0/1 Knapsack problem can be solved using dynamic programming with a space complexity of not more than O(W).
• Use a 1D array to store the maximum value that can be stolen for each weight from 0 to W.

• Iterate through each item and update the array based on whether including the item would increase the total value.

• The final value in the array at index W will be the maximum value that can be stolen.

Q1. How can you find the size of an array in C or C++ without using sizeof or any standard function?
Ans. 
You can find the size of an array in C or C++ by dividing the total size of the array by the size of one element.
• Calculate the total size of the array by multiplying the number of elements by the size of each element.

• Divide the total size by the size of one element to get the size of the array.

• For example, if you have an array of strings arr[] = {'hello', 'world', 'example'}, you can find the size by dividing the total

Q2. Explain how indexing in a database works using B+ trees.
Ans. 
B+ trees are used for indexing in databases to efficiently search and retrieve data.
• B+ trees are balanced trees where each node can have multiple keys and child pointers.

• Data is stored in leaf nodes, while non-leaf nodes are used for navigation.

• B+ trees are commonly used in databases because of their ability to efficiently search and retrieve data.

• Example: In a database table with an index on a specific column, B+ tree...read more

Ans. 
Find the maximum sum of the path from the root to any leaf node in an n-ary tree.
• Traverse the tree from root to leaf nodes while keeping track of the sum of each path.

• At each node, calculate the sum of the path from the root to that node and update the maximum sum found so far.

• Consider using depth-first search (DFS) or breadth-first search (BFS) for tree traversal.

• Handle cases where nodes have negative values or where
