Q2. 
Sort 0 1 2 Problem Statement
Given an integer array arr of size 'N' containing only 0s, 1s, and 2s, write an algorithm to sort the array.
Input:
The first line contains an integer 'T' representing the n...read more
Ans. 
Sort an array of 0s, 1s, and 2s in linear time complexity.
• Use three pointers to keep track of 0s, 1s, and 2s while traversing the array.

• Swap elements based on the values encountered to sort the array in-place.

• Time complexity should be O(N) and space complexity should be O(1).

Ans. 
Detect if a given linked list is circular by checking if it forms a closed loop.
• Traverse the linked list using two pointers, one moving at double the speed of the other.

• If the two pointers meet at any point, the linked list is circular.

• If the faster pointer reaches the end of the list (NULL), the linked list is not circular.

Q1. State the features of interface Spring boot annotations Microservice communication table index
Ans. 
Interface features include abstraction, multiple inheritance, and contract enforcement.
• Abstraction: Interfaces allow for the definition of methods without implementation, providing a blueprint for classes to follow.

• Multiple Inheritance: Java interfaces support multiple inheritance, allowing a class to implement multiple interfaces.

• Contract Enforcement: Interfaces define a contract that implementing classes must adhere

Q3. Explain subnet in networking
Ans. 
A subnet is a smaller network within a larger network, created by dividing the IP address range of the larger network.
• Subnets help in organizing and managing network resources efficiently.

• They allow for better security by isolating different parts of the network.

• Subnets can be created by dividing an IP address range into smaller ranges.

• For example, a company may have different subnets for different departments like HR,
