Note:
The string 'S' should be evaluated in a case...read more
Ans. 
The task is to check whether a given string is a palindrome or not, considering only alphabets and numbers and ignoring symbols and whitespaces.
• Convert the string to lowercase and remove all symbols and whitespaces.

• Reverse the modified string and compare it with the original string.

• If they are equal, then the string is a palindrome.

• If not, then the string is not a palindrome.

Q3. 
Min Steps to One Using Dynamic Programming
Given a positive integer N, your task is to determine the minimum number of steps required to reduce N to 1.
Allowed Operations:
1) Subtract 1 from it: n = n -...read more
Ans. 
The task is to find the minimum number of steps required to reduce a positive integer to 1 using three given operations.
• Use dynamic programming to solve the problem efficiently.

• Create an array to store the minimum steps required for each number from 1 to N.

• Iterate from 2 to N and calculate the minimum steps for each number based on the three operations.

• Return the minimum steps for N.

Q1. 
Maximum Subarray Sum Problem Statement
Given an array of integers, determine the maximum possible sum of any contiguous subarray within the array.
Example:
Input:
array = [34, -50, 42, 14, -5, 86]
Out...read more
Ans. 
The maximum sum of any contiguous subarray in an array is found using Kadane's algorithm in O(N) time.
• Initialize two variables, maxSum and currentSum, both set to the first element of the array.

• Iterate through the array from the second element.

• For each element, update currentSum by adding the element to it.

• If currentSum becomes negative, reset it to 0.

• If currentSum is greater than maxSum, update maxSum.

• After iterating ...read more

Ans. 
Find minimum cost to reach end of array by jumping with constraints
• Use dynamic programming to keep track of minimum cost at each index

• Iterate through the array and update the minimum cost based on reachable indices within K steps

• Calculate cost to jump from current index to reachable indices and update minimum cost accordingly
