Interview Preparation Tips

Round: Online round
Experience: Online round (1 hour on hackerrank):1. There are ‘n’ ticket windows in the railway station, ith window has ai tickets available. Price of a ticket is equal to the number of tickets remaining in that window at that time. When ‘m’ tickets have been sold, what’s the maximum amount of money the railway station can earn?

e.g.

INPUT: n=2, m=4

a1=2 , a2=5

OUTPUT: 14(2nd window sold 4 tickets so 5+4+3+2).2. You are given a 2-D matrix with M rows and N columns.You are initially positioned at (0,0) which is the top-left cell in the array. You are allowed to move either right or downwards. The array is filled with 1’s and 0’s. A 1 indicates that you can move through that cell, a 0 indicates that you cannot move through that cell. Return the number of paths from top-left cell to bottom-right cell.(i.e. (0,0)to(M-1,N-1)). Since answer can be large thus you have to return ans%(10^9+7).Constraints: Best time and space complexity were required to cover all the test cases for both questions.

Round: TECHNICAL INTERVIEW
Experience: 1. Given a string of characters , parse the numeric values in it ,add all of them and return the result.

Lot of discussion regarding the various test cases around this question(e.g, handing of -ve numbers , decimals , overflow etc).

Main concentration was just to get as many as test cases possible and an efficient solution as well.

And Some common question like why you coding in C++? Advantages of OOP?

Round: TECHNICAL INTERVIEW
Experience: Again one coding question to be done on shared screen.

1. Given an array of positive integers, find all possible triangle triplets that can be formed from this array.

eg: 9 8 10 7

ans: 9 8 10, 9 8 7, 9 10 7, 7 8 10

Note : array not sorted, there is no limit on the array length.Again the main concentration was to work around all possible test cases and an efficient solution as well.
