It was an online round consisting of 2 programming questions restricted to C++, Java, and C# and 10 MCQ's on Data structures, Algorithms, etc..

Q1. 
Prime Time Again Problem Statement
You are given two integers DAY_HOURS and PARTS. Consider a day with DAY_HOURS hours, which can be divided into PARTS equal parts. Your task is to determine the total ins...read more
Ans. 
Count the total instances of equivalent prime groups in a day divided into equal parts.
• Divide the day into equal parts and check for prime groups at the same position in different parts.

• Each prime group should consist of prime numbers occurring at different parts of the day.

• Return the total number of equivalent prime groups found.

• Example: For DAY_HOURS = 20 and PARTS = 2, there are 2 prime groups: 3-13 and 7-17.

Round difficulty - Medium

The round was conducted on FaceCode(HackerEarth) in the afternoon time. The OOPS features of CPP were asked. The SQL queries (Joins) were also asked. Two easy programming questions were asked - one array-based implementation and other one from the doubly linked list. Two puzzles were also asked. The interviewers were very nice and they gave me enough time to think about the solution.

Q1. 
Sort Elements by Frequency
Your task is to sort a list of repeated integers by their frequency in decreasing order. The element with the highest frequency should appear first. If two elements have the sam...read more
Ans. 
The task is to sort a list of integers based on their frequency of repetition, with the element with the highest frequency first.
• Count the frequency of each element in the list using a dictionary.

• Sort the elements based on their frequency in descending order.

• If two elements have the same frequency, maintain their original order.

• Return the sorted list.

Q2. 
Reverse a Doubly Linked List
Given a doubly linked list of positive integers with size 'N', reverse the list and return the head of the modified list.
Explanation:
A doubly linked list allows traversal ...read more
Ans. 
The task is to reverse a given doubly linked list and return the head of the modified list.
• Create three pointers: prev, current, and next.

• Iterate through the linked list and update the next and prev pointers for each node.

• Finally, update the head pointer to the last node visited and return it as the head of the reversed list.

Q2. 
Count Distinct Ways to Reach the Nth Stairs
Consider a scenario where you have been given a number of stairs. You start at the 0th stair and need to reach the Nth stair. With each stride, you can choose t...read more
Ans. 
The task is to find the number of distinct ways to move from the 0th to the Nth stair by ascending one or two steps at a time.
• Use dynamic programming to solve this problem efficiently.

• The number of ways to reach the Nth stair is the sum of the number of ways to reach the (N-1)th stair and the number of ways to reach the (N-2)th stair.

• Handle base cases for N=0 and N=1 separately.

• Consider using memoization to avoid redun...read more
