Q2. find total number of k element which have a given avg in a given array in minimum time complexity

Ans.

Find total number of k element with given avg in an array in minimum time complexity.

  • Use sliding window technique to traverse the array in O(n) time complexity.

  • Maintain a sum variable to keep track of the sum of elements in the window.

  • If the sum of elements in the window is equal to k times the given avg, increment the count.

  • Move the window by subtracting the first element and adding the next element in the array.

Q3. print all elements which in not boundary element in a given binary tree

Ans.

Printing non-boundary elements of a binary tree

  • Traverse the tree in any order (preorder, inorder, postorder)

  • Check if the current node is not a boundary node (not the first or last node in its level)

  • If it is not a boundary node, print its value

  • Recursively traverse its left and right subtrees

Q4. find pair which have a given sum in a given array

Ans.

Finding pairs in an array with a given sum.

  • Iterate through the array and for each element, check if the difference between the given sum and the element exists in the array.

  • Use a hash table to store the elements of the array and their indices for faster lookup.

Q5. spiral order of binary tree and mattrix, print it

Ans.

Print the spiral order of a binary tree and matrix.

  • For binary tree, use level order traversal and alternate direction for each level.

  • For matrix, use four pointers to traverse in spiral order.

  • Example for binary tree: 1 -> 2 -> 3 -> 4 -> 5 -> 6 -> 7 -> 8 -> 9

  • Example for matrix: 1 2 3 4 -> 8 7 6 5 -> 9 10 11 12 -> 16 15 14 13

Q6. coding : Given array and target, find the index pair of elements the sum becomes target

Ans.

Given an array and target, find the index pair of elements the sum becomes target.

  • Use a hash table to store the difference between target and current element

  • Check if the difference exists in the hash table

  • Return the indices of the current element and the difference

A linked list is a linear data structure where each element is a separate object with a pointer to the next element.

  • Consists of nodes that contain data and a pointer to the next node

  • Can be singly or doubly linked

  • Used for dynamic memory allocation, implementing stacks and queues

  • Example: Singly linked list - 1 -> 2 -> 3 -> null

  • Example: Doubly linked list - null <- 1 <-> 2 <-> 3 -> null
