Q1. 
Reverse Linked List Problem Statement
Given a singly linked list of integers, return the head of the reversed linked list.
Example:
Initial linked list: 1 -> 2 -> 3 -> 4 -> NULL
Reversed link...read more
Ans. 
Reverse a singly linked list of integers and return the head of the reversed linked list.
• Iterate through the linked list and reverse the pointers to point to the previous node instead of the next node.

• Keep track of the previous, current, and next nodes while reversing the linked list.

• Update the head of the reversed linked list as the last node encountered during reversal.

Q2. 
LCA of Binary Tree Problem Statement
You are given a binary tree consisting of distinct integers and two nodes, X and Y. Your task is to find and return the Lowest Common Ancestor (LCA) of these two nodes...read more
Ans. 
Find the Lowest Common Ancestor (LCA) of two nodes in a binary tree.
• Traverse the binary tree to find the paths from the root to nodes X and Y.

• Compare the paths to find the last common node, which is the LCA.

• Handle cases where one node is an ancestor of the other.

• Consider edge cases like when X or Y is the root node.

• Implement a recursive or iterative solution to find the LCA efficiently.

Q3. What is internal fragmentation?
Ans. 
Internal fragmentation occurs when allocated memory is larger than the requested memory, leading to wasted space.
• Internal fragmentation is common in memory management systems.

• It occurs when a block of memory is allocated to a process, but the process does not use all of the allocated memory.

• This results in wasted space within the allocated block.

• For example, if a process requests 100 bytes of memory but is allocated a ...read more

Q4. Which part of memory stores uninitialized static and global variables?
Ans. 
BSS segment in memory stores uninitialized static and global variables.
• BSS segment stands for 'Block Started by Symbol' and is a section of memory where uninitialized static and global variables are stored.

• Variables declared with the 'static' keyword or as global variables without initialization are stored in the BSS segment.

• For example, int a; or static int b; would be stored in the BSS segment.

Q1. 
Integer Square Root Calculation
Given a positive integer 'N', compute its square root and return it. If 'N' is not a perfect square, then return the floor value of sqrt(N).
Example:
Input:
N = 25
N = 20
N...read more
Ans. 
Calculate the square root of a positive integer and return the floor value if not a perfect square.
• Use the sqrt() function to calculate the square root of the given integer.

• If the square root is not an integer, return the floor value using floor() function.

• Handle constraints such as the range of 'N' and the number of test cases.

Q2. Where does the returned value for the 'main' function go?
Ans. 
The returned value for the 'main' function goes to the operating system.
• The returned value is typically an integer representing the exit status of the program.

• A return value of 0 usually indicates successful execution, while non-zero values indicate errors.

• The operating system can use the return value to determine the success or failure of the program.

Q3. What is a segmentation fault?
Ans. 
A segmentation fault is a type of error that occurs when a program tries to access a memory location that it is not allowed to access.
• Occurs when a program tries to access memory outside of its allocated space

• Usually caused by bugs in the code such as accessing an uninitialized pointer or writing past the end of an array

• Can lead to program crashes or unexpected behavior

• Example: Accessing an element beyond the bounds of
