- Q3. Given a set of n steps. A person can climb one or two steps at a time. Find the number of ways in which one can reach the nth step. (Easy stuff.. I probably wasn't doing good by this time)
- Ans.
The number of ways to reach the nth step using 1 or 2 steps at a time.
Use dynamic programming to solve this problem
Create an array to store the number of ways to reach each step
Initialize the first two elements of the array as 1, since there is only one way to reach the first and second steps
For each subsequent step, the number of ways to reach it is the sum of the number of ways to reach the previous two steps
Return t
- Q4. Given an array a1, a2...an. Find all pairs such that ai>aj having i
- Q5. Given many pairs intervals with their start and end. Find the maximum interval which intersects the maximum number of intervals. Look for corner cases again!
- Ans.
Find the maximum interval that intersects the maximum number of intervals.
Sort the intervals based on their start times.
Iterate through the sorted intervals and keep track of the current interval with the maximum number of intersections.
Update the maximum interval whenever a new interval intersects more intervals than the current maximum interval.
- Q6. There was one easy string question.. Dont remember.something on trie data structure
- Q7. Given a string (say alpha) and a dictionary database from where I can find if a word is present in the dictionary by a O(1) time look up. Find if there exists a path from the root word(aplha) to leaf node ...
- Q8. Implement an auto suggest in search engine. Like for google when u type max say maximum must be suggested in drop down. This is a problem on Information Retrieval.
- Q9. Easy one. How to make a linked list with for a number like 12345 must be stored in linked list as 1->2->3->4->5.
- Q10. I dont remember again a question. Was on strings again :P. But easy
- Q11. Implement a ctlr+f (find) functionality in a file. Make a data structure for this implementation
- Ans.
Implement a ctlr+f (find) functionality in a file using a data structure.
Create a data structure to store the file content, such as an array of strings.
Implement a function that takes a search query and returns the matching lines from the file.
Use string matching algorithms like Knuth-Morris-Pratt or Boyer-Moore for efficient searching.
Consider optimizing the data structure for faster search operations, like using a tr
- Q12. Given two sorted arrays find of size n and m. The n sized array has m spaces empty at the end. Code to merge these to arrays in single pass O(n+m).
- Ans.
Merge two sorted arrays with empty spaces at the end in a single pass.
Initialize two pointers at the end of each array
Compare the elements at the pointers and place the larger element at the end of the merged array
Decrement the pointer of the array from which the larger element was taken
Repeat until all elements are merged
- Q13. Given a binary tree. Code to have each node point to the next node in the same level. Last element in the level must point to NULL
- Ans.
The code should traverse the binary tree level by level and update the next pointers accordingly.
Use a queue to perform level order traversal of the binary tree.
For each node, update its next pointer to point to the next node in the queue.
If the current node is the last node in the level, update its next pointer to NULL.
- Q14. Make a set of all nodes that can occur in any path from a source to a destination in both directed as well as undirected graph. Note that a node can be visited any number of times not necessarily only onc...
- Ans.
The set of all nodes that can occur in any path from a source to a destination in both directed and undirected graphs.
Perform a depth-first search (DFS) or breadth-first search (BFS) from the source node to the destination node.
During the search, keep track of all visited nodes.
Add each visited node to the set of nodes that can occur in any path.
Repeat the search for both directed and undirected graphs.
The resulting se...
- Q15. Given two sides of a river having the same cities labeled in characters. Bridges are to be drawn from one side to another that can connect the same labels but the bridges shudnt cross each other. Find the...
- Ans.
The maximum number of bridges that can be connected between two sides of a river without crossing each other.
This is a dynamic programming problem.
Create a 2D array to store the maximum number of bridges that can be connected at each position.
Initialize the first row and column of the array with 0.
Iterate through the sides of the river and compare the labels.
If the labels match, update the value in the array by adding ...

- Q2. Design Heap( tree)
- Ans.
Design a heap tree data structure
A heap is a complete binary tree where the value of each node is greater than or equal to the values of its children
There are two types of heaps: min heap (parent node is smaller than children) and max heap (parent node is larger than children)
Heap can be implemented using arrays where parent node at index i has children at indices 2i+1 and 2i+2

- Q1. How to do inheritance with prototypes
- Ans.
Inheritance with prototypes allows objects to inherit properties and methods from other objects in JavaScript.
Create a constructor function for the parent object
Add properties and methods to the parent object's prototype
Create a constructor function for the child object
Set the child object's prototype to be an instance of the parent object
- Q2. Explain closure in JS
- Ans.
Closure in JS is when a function is able to remember and access its lexical scope even when it is executed outside that scope.
Closure allows a function to access variables from its outer function even after the outer function has finished executing.
Functions in JavaScript form closures, which means they 'remember' the variables in the scope where they were created.
Closures are commonly used in event handlers, callbacks
