- Q1. What is the difference between C and C++?
- Ans.
C++ is an extension of C with object-oriented programming features.
C++ supports classes and objects while C does not.
C++ has better support for polymorphism and inheritance.
C++ has a standard template library (STL) which C does not have.
C++ allows function overloading while C does not.
C++ has exception handling while C does not.
- Q2. What is the difference between for and while loop?
- Ans.
For loop is used for iterating over a sequence while while loop is used for iterating until a condition is met.
For loop is used when the number of iterations is known beforehand
While loop is used when the number of iterations is not known beforehand
For loop is faster than while loop for iterating over a sequence
While loop is useful for iterating until a specific condition is met

- Q3. Write a program to add two numbers without using + operator
- Q4. How to you reverse a string without using any looping and inbuilt functions?
- Ans.
To reverse a string without using any looping and inbuilt functions, we can use recursion.
Create a function that takes a string as input.
If the length of the string is 0 or 1, return the string.
Otherwise, call the function recursively with the substring starting from the second character and concatenate the first character at the end.
Return the reversed string.
Example: reverseString('hello') returns 'olleh'.
- Q5. How many queues will you use to implement a priority queue?
- Ans.
A priority queue can be implemented using a single queue or multiple queues.
One approach is to use a single queue and assign priorities to elements using a separate data structure.
Another approach is to use multiple queues, each representing a different priority level.
For example, if there are three priority levels, three queues can be used to implement the priority queue.
- Q6. Which datastructure would you use to implement an heteregenous array?
- Ans.
An array of objects can be used to implement a heterogeneous array.
Each element in the array can be an object that represents a different data type.
The objects can have different properties and methods based on their respective data types.
For example, an element can be an object representing a string with a 'value' property and a 'length' method.
- Q7. Tell me about yourself?

- Ans.
The missing rupee is not actually missing. The calculation is misleading and does not account for the total amount paid.
The initial amount paid by each person was Rs.10, totaling Rs.30.
The owner gave them a discount of Rs.5, so they paid Rs.25 in total.
The broker took Rs.2, leaving them with Rs.23.
When the broker returned Rs.1 to each person, they each received Rs.1 back, totaling Rs.3.
So, the total amount paid by the ...

Interview Preparation Tips
Experience: The first round was an online test conducted by hirepro.in. The round was 2 hours and went pretty swift aside from some really 'make or break' questions. As a mechanical Engineer and having next to little proficiency in programming, I was not astounded to find myself biting nails and clicking Flukes while glancing at the ever-incomprehensible coding questions. With each question, it seemed like I was brandishing the bat in the air for all kinds of balls, whether bouncer or Yorker, just for the only reason "I can't make a single thing out of these questions, let alone answer". The verbal and quantitative part was friendlier on me. I was able to answer almost 90% in those two sections. The questions framed were basic and doable with a month

College Name: GANDHI INSTITUTE OF ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY
Motivation: Being placed during on campus, but not satisfied with package and what i was offered. Came to a place like Bangalore from GIET, Gunupur where life is so fast. It was not easy, mind you a lot people around would de motivate you. But just don't get affected easily ,as to this is what my experience all over this tells.
I was just stunned when i saw the official website of CGI.
Funny Moments: Was not really funny but would share ,as i smile to those now. Not being selected by TCS and my roommate, girls in hostel making fun of the optimistic approach i had with life.
I appeared for an interview before Feb 2016.

Interview Preparation Tips
Experience: The first round was an online test conducted by hirepro.in. The round was 2 hours and went pretty swift aside from some really 'make or break' questions. As a mechanical Engineer and having next to little proficiency in programming, I was not astounded to find myself biting nails and clicking Flukes while glancing at the ever-incomprehensible coding questions. Me, With each question, seems like brandishing the bat in the air for all kinds of balls, whether bouncer or yorker, just for the only reason "I can't make a single thing out of these questions, let alone answer". The verbal and quantitative part was more friendly to me. I was able to answer almost 90% in those two sections. The questions framed were basic and doable with a month's or two's practice. The verbal section contained- Reading Comprehension, Word Synonym and antonym, Sentence Correction and Sentence orientation and ordering.
p.s: After giving the exam and ravaging the coding part, I saw my chances of getting shortlisted being one in a million. Still, with immense exultation, I got selected and was asked to go for the PI, as if they didn't consider the Programming part for mechanical engineering and for other core dept. students.
Tips: The only sutra to succeed in an online test is to stay cool during the exam and to have a healthy breakfast in the morning before the exam.
For the verbal part, start reading omnivorously and focus on sentence formation patterns. At last, Indiabix.com always comes as the saviour. For maths part needs a lot of Practice. Always, start the preparation for apti earlier than your peers: great way to get a heads up. STAY COOL AND BANG THE GAME.

Round: Technical Interview
Experience: In technical round interview the process was like this...
I entered in room and greeted interviewer and he asked me to sit down. I handed over my resume to him. His first question was tell me about yourself. Then my projects. After that he came on programming, He asked me very basic concept about C++. Questions were like what is polymorphism, What is encapsulation. He also asked program of fibonacci series. After all these question he again looked at my resume and asked me 'why your CGPA is low?' I said that when i was in my first year i had interest in electronics but later when i encountered with programming i decided to have my career in this field so i could not concentrate on my core subjects.
Tips: C++ is '''''must''''' for Virtusa if you are from electronics . I didn't know data structure but c++ was on my fingers. Answer question with confidence.
Round: HR Interview
Experience: HR interview was really cool. Interview asked me about myself, my family, real life applications of my project. After that he came on real stuff. He asked question like why do you want to join virtusa? I said virtusa is this .. virtusa is this.....and many more..and in last i said this is i want to join virtusa. Next question was ' what do think about dowry?'. At first i was surprised to hear this question but i realized that interview only want to check my ability to speak on random topic. I answered the question by criticizing dowry and he was pleased to hear my answer. After one or two general HR question like location preference , he told me that your interview is over please wait outside for result. It was really nice to meet you . Thank you.
