Yes, the string class can be extended in most programming languages.
Inheritance can be used to extend the functionality of the string class.
By creating a new class that inherits from the string class, additional methods and properties can be added.
Extending the string class allows for customization and adding specific functionality to strings.
Example: In Python, the string class can be extended by creating a new class
Implicit objects in JSP are predefined objects that are available for use without any declaration or initialization.
Implicit objects in JSP include request, response, session, application, out, config, pageContext, page, exception, and others.
These objects provide access to various aspects of the JSP environment and can be used to perform common tasks.
For example, the request object allows access to HTTP request parame...
A hash map is a data structure that uses a hash function to map keys to values.
Hash map stores key-value pairs
It uses a hash function to compute an index for each key
Collisions can occur when two keys hash to the same index
Hash maps provide fast access to values based on their keys
StringBuffer and StringBuilder are both used to manipulate strings, but StringBuffer is thread-safe while StringBuilder is not.
StringBuffer is synchronized, making it safe for use in multi-threaded environments.
StringBuilder is not synchronized, making it faster but not thread-safe.
StringBuffer is preferred when multiple threads are involved, while StringBuilder is preferred for single-threaded scenarios.
Both classes p...
MVC is a software architectural pattern that separates an application into three main components: Model, View, and Controller.
Model represents the data and business logic of the application.
View is responsible for displaying the user interface.
Controller handles user input, updates the model, and interacts with the view.
MVC promotes separation of concerns and modularity in software development.
Example: In a web applica...

Technical Interview round with questions based on DSA.
Given an array ARR
of size N
, containing each number between 1 and N-1
at least once, identify the single integer that appears twice.
The first line contains an integer...
Identify the duplicate integer in an array containing numbers between 1 and N-1.
Iterate through the array and keep track of the frequency of each element using a hashmap.
Return the element with a frequency greater than 1 as the duplicate integer.
Ensure the constraints are met and a duplicate number is guaranteed to be present.
You are given an arbitrary binary tree consisting of N nodes, each associated with an integer value from 1 to 9. Each root-to-leaf path can be considered a number formed by concat...
Calculate the total sum of all root to leaf paths in a binary tree formed by concatenating node values.
Traverse the binary tree from root to leaf nodes, keeping track of the current path sum
Add the current node value to the path sum and multiply by 10 for each level
When reaching a leaf node, add the final path sum to the total sum
Return the total sum modulo (10^9 + 7)
You are given a directed acyclic graph (DAG). Your task is to perform topological sorting of the graph and return any valid ordering.
A directed acyclic g...
Implement a function to perform topological sorting on a directed acyclic graph (DAG) and return any valid ordering.
Create a graph data structure to represent the DAG
Use depth-first search (DFS) to perform topological sorting
Maintain a visited array to keep track of visited nodes
Return the ordering of nodes after DFS traversal

Technical interview round with questions based on DSA.
You are given a binary tree consisting of distinct integers and two nodes, X
and Y
. Your task is to find and return the Lowest Common Ancestor (LCA) of these two nodes...
Find the Lowest Common Ancestor (LCA) of two nodes in a binary tree.
Traverse the binary tree to find the paths from the root to nodes X and Y.
Compare the paths to find the last common node, which is the LCA.
Handle cases where one node is an ancestor of the other.
Consider edge cases like when X or Y is the root node.
Implement a recursive or iterative solution to find the LCA efficiently.
You are provided with a sorted array that has undergone 'K' rotations (the exact value of 'K' is unknown). A rotation involves shifting each element of the array to the right,...
Implement a function to find the minimum number in a rotated sorted array efficiently.
Use binary search to find the minimum element in the rotated array.
Compare the mid element with the start and end elements to determine which half of the array to search next.
Continue the binary search until the minimum element is found.
Given an array TREE
of 'N' unique integers, construct a maximum binary tree using the following rules:
TREE
.Construct a maximum binary tree from an array of unique integers following specific rules.
Find the maximum number in the array to set as the root of the tree.
Recursively construct the left subtree with elements before the maximum number.
Recursively construct the right subtree with elements after the maximum number.
