- Q1. Question related to C, and c++ 1 SORT the array using bubble sort
- Q2. What is virtual function
- Ans.
Virtual function is a function in C++ that can be overridden in a derived class.
Virtual functions are declared in a base class and defined in a derived class.
They allow polymorphism, where a derived class object can be treated as a base class object.
The virtual keyword is used to declare a function as virtual.
Example: virtual void display() = 0; // pure virtual function
Example: virtual void display() { cout << 'Base cl
- Q3. What is constructor
- Ans.
A constructor is a special method that is used to initialize objects of a class.
Constructors have the same name as the class they belong to.
They are called automatically when an object of the class is created.
They can be used to set default values for object properties.
Constructors can be overloaded to accept different parameters.
Example: public class Car { public Car() { // constructor code here } }
- Q4. What is destructor
- Ans.
A destructor is a member function of a class that is responsible for destroying objects of that class.
Destructors have the same name as the class preceded by a tilde (~).
They are called automatically when an object is destroyed or goes out of scope.
They are used to release resources allocated by the object during its lifetime.
Example: ~MyClass() { delete[] myArray; }
Destructors cannot be overloaded or inherited.
- Q5. What is friend class
- Ans.
Friend class is a class that has access to the private and protected members of another class.
Friend class is declared using the 'friend' keyword.
It allows the friend class to access the private and protected members of the class it is friends with.
Friendship is not mutual, meaning the friend class does not grant access to its own private and protected members.
Friend functions can also be declared to have access to pri...

Interview Preparation Tips
Experience: Most interviews progress depending on what is being highlighted/ stressed by you. Highlight things accordingly in resume and during interviews. My interview was focused on advanced VLSI electives/projects as I highlighted them during the interview and in resume.
Tips: CG cut-off: CG is a factor but nothing rigid above 8 would be useful. Generally long
shortlists are released. Therefore, selection is extremely dependent on interviews.
General Tips: Intel HR Interviews mostly concentrate on ethics. Make sure all replies are ethically correct. Work environment - one of the top 3 best places to work in India. Good employee care.
Note: Sometimes the HR interviews are taken by tech interviewers themselves. There is not always
an independent panel for HR interviews.
