- 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.

- Q1. Tell me about any of the design patterns you are familiar with
- Ans.
I am familiar with design patterns such as Singleton, Factory, Observer, and MVC.
Singleton pattern ensures a class has only one instance and provides a global point of access to it.
Factory pattern creates objects without specifying the exact class of object that will be created.
Observer pattern defines a one-to-many dependency between objects so that when one object changes state, all its dependents are notified and up...

- Q1. Find a number which occurs odd number of times and all number occurs even number of times
- Ans.
Find an odd occurring number among even occurring numbers.

Iterate through the array and XOR each element with the result variable.
The final result will be the odd occurring number.
- Q2. Some discussion about my minor project
- Q3. Spiral order of binary tree and mattrix, print it
- Ans.
Print the spiral order of a binary tree and matrix.
For binary tree, use level order traversal and alternate direction for each level.
For matrix, use four pointers to traverse in spiral order.
Example for binary tree: 1 -> 2 -> 3 -> 4 -> 5 -> 6 -> 7 -> 8 -> 9
Example for matrix: 1 2 3 4 -> 8 7 6 5 -> 9 10 11 12 -> 16 15 14 13
- Q4. Some question about os,dbms
- Q5. Find pair which have a given sum in a given array
- Ans.
Finding pairs in an array with a given sum.
Iterate through the array and for each element, check if the difference between the given sum and the element exists in the array.
Use a hash table to store the elements of the array and their indices for faster lookup.
If there are multiple pairs with the same sum, return any one of them.
If no pair is found, return null or an empty array.
- Q6. Find total number of k element which have a given avg in a given array in minimum time complexity
- Ans.
Find total number of k element with given avg in an array in minimum time complexity.
Use sliding window technique to traverse the array in O(n) time complexity.
Maintain a sum variable to keep track of the sum of elements in the window.
If the sum of elements in the window is equal to k times the given avg, increment the count.
Move the window by subtracting the first element and adding the next element in the array.
- Q7. Print all elements which in not boundary element in a given binary tree
- Ans.
Printing non-boundary elements of a binary tree
Traverse the tree in any order (preorder, inorder, postorder)
Check if the current node is not a boundary node (not the first or last node in its level)
If it is not a boundary node, print its value
Recursively traverse its left and right subtrees
- Q8. Then some question about process synchronisation,error vs exception,and then 2-3 hr question

Yes, the string class can be extended in most programming languages.
Inheritance can be used to extend the functionality of the string class.

- Q3. How does hash map works
- Ans.
A hash map is a data structure that uses a hash function to map keys to values.
Hash map stores key-value pairs
It uses a hash function to compute an index for each key
Collisions can occur when two keys hash to the same index
Hash maps provide fast access to values based on their keys
- Q4. Difference between string buffer and string builder
- Ans.
StringBuffer and StringBuilder are both used to manipulate strings, but StringBuffer is thread-safe while StringBuilder is not.
StringBuffer is synchronized, making it safe for use in multi-threaded environments.
StringBuilder is not synchronized, making it faster but not thread-safe.
StringBuffer is preferred when multiple threads are involved, while StringBuilder is preferred for single-threaded scenarios.
Both classes p...

College Name: BITS PILANI
Motivation: Every body joins a comapny for making a software or earning money. But I was always motivated to MAKE MONEY. I have taken this job because they have very extensive work in Share Market and they have lots of MBA from IIM's, Lots of CAs, CS. Thats why i have choosen Edelweiss. I have rejected epic System USA for this profile.
Interview Preparation Tips
Experience: The test was for two and half hours where 1 hour was for general aptitude, 1 hr was for coding aptitude(either on java or C or C++as you choose) and 1/2 an hour for two coding questions.
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.

Experience: The written test was quite similar to the typical CAT pattern. It contained sections on Reading Comprehension, Data Interpretation and Mathematics.
Round: Technical + HR Interview
Experience: There were 2 interviewers in the first interview, one was a technical guy and the other was from HR. They asked me a few very simple puzzles, a few basic programming questions (swapping the value of two variables etc.), questions related to the development cycle of software products. The HR guy asked stuff like what do you want to achieve in life? Strengths, weaknesses etc.
Round: Case Study Interview
Experience: The third interview was the most important one (and I guess that was the deciding interview). The interviewer started with questions like why finance? Which companies are you sitting for? Then he gave me a case study:
