This round had 40 MCQ's followed by 2 questions of DS and Algo. The programming questions were preety standard and can be solved within 30 minutes.
Given an array arr
of length N
consisting of integers, find the sum of the subarray (including empty subarray) with the maximum sum among all subarrays.
Find the sum of the subarray with the maximum sum among all subarrays in a given array.
Iterate through the array and keep track of the maximum sum subarray seen so far.
Use Kadane's algorithm to efficiently find the maximum subarray sum.
Handle cases where all elements are negative or array is empty.
Example: For input arr = [-2, 1, -3, 4, -1], the maximum subarray sum is 4.
Given a string str
and a character 'X', develop a function to eliminate all instances of 'X' from str
and return the resulting string.
The first lin...
Develop a function to remove all instances of a given character from a string.
Iterate through the string character by character and only add characters that are not equal to the given character to a new string.
Alternatively, use built-in string manipulation functions to remove all instances of the given character from the string.
Ensure the function handles edge cases such as empty strings or strings with no instances o...

This round had questions from DSA, OS, DBMS and Computer Networks. The programming question was quiet easy and I coded it preety fast after discussing the appropriate approach and complexity analysis.
You are provided with two singly linked lists containing integers, where both lists converge at some node belonging to a third linked list.
Your task is to determine t...
Find the node where two linked lists merge, return -1 if no merging occurs.
Traverse both lists to find their lengths and the difference in lengths
Move the pointer of the longer list by the difference in lengths
Traverse both lists simultaneously until they meet at the merging point
Multitasking involves executing multiple tasks simultaneously, while multiprogramming involves running multiple programs on a single processor.
Multitasking allows multiple tasks to run concurrently on a single processor, switching between them quickly.
Multiprogramming involves loading multiple programs into memory and executing them concurrently, utilizing idle CPU time efficiently.
Examples of multitasking include runn...
A process is an executing instance of a program, while a program is a set of instructions stored in the computer's memory.
A program is a static set of instructions stored on disk, while a process is a dynamic instance of those instructions being executed in memory.
Multiple processes can be running the same program simultaneously, each with its own memory space and resources.
Processes have their own unique process ID (P...
A process is an instance of a program, while a thread is a unit of execution within a process.
A process has its own memory space, while threads share the same memory space.
Processes are independent and isolated, while threads can communicate and share resources.
Creating a new process is more resource-intensive than creating a new thread.
Processes have their own program counter, while threads share the same program coun...
UNION combines and removes duplicate rows, UNION ALL combines without removing duplicates.
UNION combines the result sets of two or more SELECT statements into a single result set
UNION removes duplicate rows from the result set
UNION ALL combines the result sets without removing duplicates
UNION is slower than UNION ALL as it requires additional processing to remove duplicates
Use UNION when you want to combine and remove ...
Views provide a virtual representation of data, offering advantages such as simplifying complex queries, enhancing security, and improving performance.
Views simplify complex queries by predefining commonly used joins, filters, and aggregations.
Views enhance security by allowing users to access only specific columns or rows of a table.
Views improve performance by storing the results of complex queries, reducing the need...
ARP stands for Address Resolution Protocol, used to map IP addresses to MAC addresses in a local network.
ARP is used to find the MAC address of a device based on its IP address
It operates at the data link layer of the OSI model
ARP requests are broadcasted to all devices on the local network
Example: When a device wants to communicate with another device on the same network, it uses ARP to find the MAC address of the des

Program to print binary tree elements in spiral order
Use two stacks to keep track of nodes at odd and even levels
Push nodes from left to right in odd level stack and right to left in even level stack
Pop nodes from the stack alternatively and print them
Repeat until both stacks are empty
Entering a URL in the browser triggers a series of events to retrieve and display the requested webpage.
The browser checks the cache for a previously stored copy of the webpage
If not found, the browser sends a request to the DNS server to resolve the domain name to an IP address
The browser then sends a request to the web server at the IP address for the webpage
The web server responds with the requested webpage
The brows...
MAC addresses are required for identifying devices on a local network, while IP addresses are used for identifying devices on a global network.
MAC addresses are used for communication within a local network
IP addresses are used for communication across different networks
MAC addresses are assigned by the manufacturer and cannot be changed
IP addresses can be assigned dynamically or statically
MAC addresses are used in the...

An ArrayList is a dynamic array in Java that can grow or shrink in size during runtime.
ArrayList is a class in Java's Collection framework.
It implements the List interface and allows duplicate elements.
Elements can be added or removed using methods like add(), remove(), etc.
It can also be sorted using the sort() method.
Example: ArrayList
names.add("John"); names.add("Mary"); names.remove(0);
ArrayList is a resizable array while LinkedList is a doubly linked list.
ArrayList is faster for accessing elements while LinkedList is faster for adding or removing elements.
ArrayList uses contiguous memory while LinkedList uses non-contiguous memory.
ArrayList is better for random access while LinkedList is better for sequential access.
Example: ArrayList - List
Java is not a pure OO language due to primitive types not being objects.
Primitive types like int, boolean, etc. are not objects in Java
They do not have methods or inheritance like objects do
This violates the principle of everything being an object in pure OO languages
Wrapper classes like Integer, Boolean, etc. were introduced to provide object-like behavior for primitives
Object-oriented languages support inheritance and polymorphism, while object-based languages do not.
Object-oriented languages allow for the creation of classes and objects, and support inheritance and polymorphism.
Object-based languages only support objects, but do not have the concept of classes or inheritance.
Examples of object-oriented languages include Java, C++, and Python, while JavaScript is an example of an obj
Inheritance is a way to create new classes based on existing ones. Abstraction is a way to hide implementation details.
Inheritance allows a subclass to inherit properties and methods from a superclass.
Abstraction allows a class to provide a simplified interface to its users while hiding its implementation details.
For example, a Car class can inherit properties and methods from a Vehicle class, while also implementing i...
