Print all possible combinations of strings by picking one character from each string in the array.
Iterate through each character of the first string and combine it with each character of the second string.
Repeat the process for all strings in the array to get all possible combinations.
Use nested loops to generate combinations efficiently.
Modified Balanced Parentheses where characters can be matched with any other character.
Use a stack to keep track of opening characters
When encountering a closing character, check if it matches the top of the stack
If it matches, pop from the stack, else return false
Continue until end of string, return true if stack is empty
Check if a string has balanced parentheses.
Use a stack to keep track of opening parentheses.
Iterate through the string and push opening parentheses onto the stack.

Find indices in an array where the sum of elements around them is equal.
Equilibrium point is defined as sum of elements before index i equals sum of elements from index i to t+p-1.
Example: For P=2 and Array={1,-1,3,-3,10,-10,17}, indices 2, 4, and 5 are equilibrium points.
At index 2: Left sum (1 + -1) = 0, Right sum (3) = 3; not an equilibrium.
At index 4: Left sum (1 + -1 + 3 + -3) = 0, Right sum (10 + -10) = 0; e...
Traverse a matrix in spiral order, collecting elements layer by layer.
Start from the top-left corner and move right until the end of the row.
Then, move down the last column.
Next, move left across the bottom row.
Finally, move up the first column.
Repeat the process for the inner layers until all elements are traversed.
Example: For a matrix [[1,2,3],[4,5,6],[7,8,9]], the spiral order is [1,2,3,6,9,8,7,4,5].

Oops stands for Object-Oriented Programming. It is a programming paradigm that uses objects to represent real-world entities.
Advantages: code reusability, modularity, encapsulation, inheritance, polymorphism
Disadvantages: complexity, steep learning curve, performance overhead
Example: creating a class 'Car' with properties like 'make', 'model', and 'year', and methods like 'start_engine' and 'stop_engine'
