- Q1. Mutable and Non-Mutable data type.
- Ans.
Mutable data types can be changed after creation, while non-mutable data types cannot be changed.
Mutable data types in Python include lists and dictionaries.
Non-mutable data types in Python include tuples and strings.
Changing a mutable data type will modify the original object, while changing a non-mutable data type will create a new object.
- Q2. Write code for decorator.
- Ans.
A decorator is a design pattern that allows behavior to be added to individual objects, either statically or dynamically, without affecting the behavior of other objects.
Decorators are functions that take another function and extend its behavior without explicitly modifying it.
They are commonly used in Python to add functionality to existing functions or classes.
Example: Adding logging to a function using a decorator.

It was in the day time. I was asked the programming language of my choice. It was mostly focused on programming fundamentals. I was asked 2 questions based on Data Structures and Algorithms.
- Q1. How can you detect a loop in a linked list?
- Ans.
A loop in a linked list can be detected using Floyd's Cycle Detection Algorithm.
Use two pointers - slow and fast, where slow moves one step at a time and fast moves two steps at a time.
If there is a loop, the two pointers will eventually meet at some point within the loop.
To detect the start of the loop, reset one pointer to the head and move both pointers one step at a time until they meet again.

Round: Technical Interview
Experience: In technical round they asked puzzles, aptitude questions and basic C coding. I was asked to write the code for two questions(one was on sort and search) and was asked the logic of two questions.They asked basics of linked lists, stacks, queues. Infact they were not very interested in the syntax and were pressing on the logic
General Tips: Being a non software branch students is not at all a problem. The company took 4 interns where 3 were from core branches. The fact that we had to work in JAVA and most of us didn't know JAVA, the company only looks for aptitude and ability to learn. So if you don't know anything, tell frankly that you don't know that part, rather than guessing. Be thorough with what you know and confidentially answer all the questions.
Also do not be tensed and take things lightly, if the interviewer is joking. Be candid.
Skill Tips: Learn basics of coding from books . Aptitude can be done from sites likes geeks for geeks, etc. The level of aptitude is not very high and infact the coding aptitude is also theoretical and does not involve in depth knowledge.
