I applied via Referral and was interviewed before Dec 2020. There were 3 interview rounds.
I applied via Referral and was interviewed before Jul 2021. There was 1 interview round.
I solved a customer complaint by identifying the root cause and providing a solution
Listened to the customer's complaint and empathized with their situation
Analyzed the issue and identified the root cause
Developed a solution and presented it to the customer
Followed up with the customer to ensure their satisfaction
I appeared for an interview in Jul 2017.
Code to print * in five consecutive lines
Use a loop to iterate five times
Inside the loop, print a string containing a single * character
Code to calculate number of bounces a ball goes through until it comes to rest.
Use a loop to simulate the bounces until the ball stops bouncing
Calculate the height of each bounce using the given formula
Keep track of the number of bounces in a counter variable
The best and less time consuming way to calculate factorial of a number is using iterative approach.
Iteratively multiply the number with all the numbers from 1 to the given number
Start with a result variable initialized to 1
Multiply the result with each number in the range
Return the final result
Code to find factorial using function recursion
Define a function that takes an integer as input
Check if the input is 0 or 1, return 1 in that case
Otherwise, call the function recursively with input-1 and multiply it with the input

The question is about finding the minimum steps to reach from a source string to a destination string using three operations.
BFS and DFS are graph traversal techniques that can be used to solve this problem.
BFS is typically used when finding the shortest path or exploring all possible paths in a graph.
DFS is useful when searching for a specific path or exploring deeply into a graph.
In this case, BFS can be used to find...

Locate sum of 2 numbers in a linear array (unsorted and sorted) and their complexities
For unsorted array, use nested loops to compare each element with every other element until the sum is found
For sorted array, use two pointers approach starting from the beginning and end of the array and move them towards each other until the sum is found
Complexity for unsorted array is O(n^2) and for sorted array is O(n)
Pointers are used to manipulate memory addresses and values in C++. Increment/decrement, address of and value at operators are commonly used.
Incrementing a pointer moves it to the next memory location of the same data type
Decrementing a pointer moves it to the previous memory location of the same data type
The address of operator (&) returns the memory address of a variable
The value at operator (*) returns the value sto
To determine if a point is inside or outside a rectangle, we check if the point's coordinates fall within the rectangle's boundaries.
Check if the point's x-coordinate is greater than the left edge of the rectangle
Check if the point's x-coordinate is less than the right edge of the rectangle
Check if the point's y-coordinate is greater than the top edge of the rectangle
Check if the point's y-coordinate is less than the b...
To find line that divides rectangle into 2 equal halves through a point inside it.
Find the center of the rectangle
Draw a line from the center to the given point
Extend the line to the opposite side of the rectangle
The extended line will divide the rectangle into 2 equal halves
There are multiple combinations of 8-bit and 16-bit signed numbers. How many such combinations are possible?
There are 2^8 (256) possible combinations of 8-bit signed numbers.
There are 2^16 (65,536) possible combinations of 16-bit signed numbers.
To find the total number of combinations, we can add the number of combinations of 8-bit and 16-bit signed numbers.
Therefore, the total number of possible combinations is 256 +
Find duplicates in an array of elements in 0(n) time and 0(1) space.
Use the property of inputs to your advantage
Iterate through the array and mark elements as negative
If an element is already negative, it is a duplicate
Return all the negative elements as duplicates

malloc is a function in C that dynamically allocates memory on the heap. It is used to allocate memory for variables or data structures.
malloc is used in C programming language.
It is used to allocate memory on the heap.
malloc is different from 'new' in C++ as it does not call constructors for objects.
C++ is a general-purpose programming language while Objective C is a superset of C used for iOS and macOS development.
C++ is widely used for developing applications, games, and system software.
Objective C is mainly used for iOS and macOS development.
C++ supports both procedural and object-oriented programming paradigms.
Objective C is an object-oriented language with dynamic runtime features.
C++ has a larger community a...
Class container is a class that holds objects of other classes, while class composition is a way to combine multiple classes to create a new class.
Class container holds objects of other classes, acting as a collection or container.
Class composition combines multiple classes to create a new class with its own behavior and attributes.
In class container, the objects are typically stored in a data structure like an array o...
Divide the horses into groups of 5 and race them. Take the top 2 from each race and race them again. Finally, race the top 2 horses to determine the top 3.
Divide the horses into 3 groups of 5 and race them.
Take the top 2 horses from each race and race them again.
Finally, race the top 2 horses to determine the top 3.

Want to work in a more collaborative team environment
The width of a tree is the maximum number of nodes at any level in the tree.
To calculate the width of a tree, we can perform a level order traversal and keep track of the maximum number of nodes at any level.
We can use a queue data structure to perform the level order traversal.
At each level, we count the number of nodes in the queue and update the maximum width if necessary.
