...read more
Ans. 
Merge two sorted linked lists into a single sorted linked list without using additional space.
• Create a dummy node to start the merged list

• Compare the values of the two linked lists and add the smaller value to the merged list

• Move the pointer of the merged list and the pointer of the smaller value list

• Continue this process until one of the lists is fully traversed

• Append the remaining elements of the other list to the me

Q2. 
Sort 0 1 2 Problem Statement
Given an integer array arr of size 'N' containing only 0s, 1s, and 2s, write an algorithm to sort the array.
Input:
The first line contains an integer 'T' representing the n...read more
Ans. 
Sort an array of 0s, 1s, and 2s in linear time complexity.
• Use three pointers to keep track of 0s, 1s, and 2s while traversing the array.

• Swap elements based on the values encountered to sort the array in-place.

• Time complexity should be O(N) and space complexity should be O(1).

Q1. What is the event loop and what is its significance?
Ans. 
The event loop is a mechanism in programming that allows for asynchronous execution of code.
• The event loop is a key component in JavaScript's runtime environment, responsible for handling asynchronous operations.

• It continuously checks the call stack for any pending tasks and executes them in a non-blocking manner.

• The event loop ensures that the program remains responsive by allowing other code to run while waiting for ...read more

Q1. You need to find the fastest 3 horses out of a group, given that you can only race 5 horses at a time. How would you approach this problem?
Ans. 
To find the fastest 3 horses out of a group with 5 horses racing at a time, we can use a tournament style approach.
• Divide the horses into groups of 5 and race them against each other. This will give you the fastest horse in each group.

• Take the winners from each group and race them against each other. The top 3 horses in this final race will be the fastest 3 overall.

• Keep track of the results and compare the timings to d

Q2. How do you debug the root cause of lag on a screen?
Ans. 
To debug lag on a screen, analyze code, check for memory leaks, optimize rendering, and use profiling tools.
• Analyze code to identify any inefficient algorithms or operations causing lag.

• Check for memory leaks that could be impacting performance.

• Optimize rendering by reducing the number of draw calls, optimizing shaders, and minimizing overdraw.

• Use profiling tools like Xcode Instruments or Android Profiler to identify p

Data Structures, Coding MCQs

Q1. What is Data Structure
Ans. 
Data structures are organized formats for storing, managing, and accessing data efficiently.
• 1. Types: Common data structures include arrays, linked lists, stacks, queues, trees, and graphs.

• 2. Arrays: Fixed-size collections of elements, e.g., [1, 2, 3, 4].

• 3. Linked Lists: Collections of nodes where each node points to the next, e.g., 1 -> 2 -> 3.

• 4. Stacks: Last-in, first-out (LIFO) structures, e.g., function call ...read more

Q2. Write DFS Algorithm
Ans. 
Depth-First Search (DFS) is a graph traversal algorithm that explores as far as possible along each branch before backtracking.
• DFS uses a stack data structure, either explicitly or via recursion.

• It starts from a selected node and explores each branch before backtracking.

• Example: In a binary tree, DFS can be implemented using pre-order, in-order, or post-order traversal.

• DFS can be used to find connected components in a ...read more

Q1. Stock buy and sell with at most 2 transaction
Ans. 
Implement a solution to find the maximum profit from buying and selling stocks with at most 2 transactions.
• Use dynamic programming to keep track of maximum profit at each day with 0, 1, or 2 transactions.

• Consider the possibility of splitting the transactions into two separate parts.

• Calculate the maximum profit by iterating through the prices array and updating the maximum profit accordingly.

Q2. Binary search to find target
Ans. 
Binary search is a divide and conquer algorithm that efficiently finds a target value in a sorted array.
• Divide the array in half and compare the target value with the middle element

• If the target is less than the middle element, search the left half. If greater, search the right half

• Repeat the process until the target is found or the subarray is empty

Q1. What is thread ?
Ans. 
A thread is a lightweight process that can run concurrently with other threads within the same process.
• Threads allow for parallel execution of tasks within a single process.

• Threads share the same memory space and resources of the process they belong to.

• Threads can communicate with each other through shared memory or message passing.

• Examples: Java threads, POSIX threads (pthreads) in C/C++.
