Cross-site scripting (XSS) is a type of security vulnerability that allows attackers to inject malicious scripts into web pages viewed by other users.
XSS occurs when a web application allows users to input unvalidated data that is then displayed on the page without proper encoding.
There are three main types of XSS: stored XSS, reflected XSS, and DOM-based XSS.
An example of XSS is when a user inputs a script into a...
Ninja and Sorted Array Merging Problem
Ninja is tasked with merging two given sorted integer arrays ARR1 and ARR2 of sizes 'M' and 'N', respectively, such that the merged result is a single sorted array wi...
Merge two sorted arrays into one sorted array in place.
Use two pointers to compare elements from both arrays and place them in the correct position in ARR1.
Start from the end of ARR1 and compare elements from both arrays, placing the larger element at the end of ARR1.
Continue this process until all elements from ARR2 are merged into ARR1.
Word Distance Calculation
Given a document represented as an array/list ARR of words with length N, find the smallest distance between two given words for multiple queries. The distance is defined as the d...
Find the smallest distance between two words in a document for multiple queries.
Iterate through the document array to find the indices of the two words in each query.
Calculate the absolute difference between the indices to get the distance.
If a word from the query is not present in the document, return the length of the document array.
Repeat the process for each query and output the smallest distance for each.
Combination Sum Problem Statement
Given an array of distinct positive integers ARR and a non-negative integer 'B', find all unique combinations in the array where the sum is equal to 'B'. Numbers can be ch...
Find all unique combinations in an array where the sum is equal to a given target sum, with elements in non-decreasing order.
Use backtracking to generate all possible combinations.
Sort the array to ensure elements are in non-decreasing order.
Track the current combination and sum while backtracking.
Terminate recursion when the sum equals the target sum.
Avoid duplicates by skipping elements that have been used in pr...
Level Order Traversal Problem Statement
Given a binary tree of integers, return the level order traversal of the binary tree.
Input:
The first line contains an integer 'T', representing the number of tes...The problem requires implementing a function to return the level order traversal of a binary tree.
Implement a function that takes the root of the binary tree as input and returns the level order traversal of the tree.
Use a queue data structure to perform level order traversal.
Process each level of the tree one by one, starting from the root node.
Print the node values at each level in the order they appear from lef...
Counting Triangles in Graphs
Given two graphs – a directed graph DIR_GRAPH and an undirected graph UNDIR_GRAPH – you are tasked with counting the number of triangles in each of the graphs.
Example:
In th...
Count the number of triangles in a directed and undirected graph.
Parse the input to extract vertices, edges, and edges between vertices.
Implement a function to count triangles in both directed and undirected graphs.
Return the counts of triangles for each test case.
Sum of Digits Problem Statement
Given an integer 'N', continue summing its digits until the result is a single-digit number. Your task is to determine the final value of 'N' after applying this operation i...
Given an integer, sum its digits until a single-digit number is obtained.
Iteratively sum the digits of the integer until a single-digit number is reached
Output the final single-digit integer for each test case
Handle multiple test cases efficiently
Stock Trading Maximum Profit Problem
Given the stock prices for 'N' days, your goal is to determine the maximum profit that can be achieved. You can buy and sell the stocks any number of times but can only...
The goal is to determine the maximum profit that can be achieved by buying and selling stocks on different days.
Iterate through the stock prices and buy on days when the price is lower than the next day, and sell on days when the price is higher than the next day.
Calculate the profit by summing up the differences between buying and selling prices.
Repeat the process for each test case and output the maximum profit ...
Bit Majority Number Generation
You are given an array arr consisting of N integers. Construct a number from these integers such that, for each bit position, if the quantity of set bits (1s) is greater than...
Generate a number based on majority set bits in given integers array.
Iterate through each bit position and count set and unset bits
Construct the resulting number based on majority set bits at each position
Return the final constructed number
