Q2. What is the point of BST?
Ans. 
BST is a data structure used for efficient searching, insertion and deletion of elements in a sorted manner.
• BST stands for Binary Search Tree.

• It has a root node and every node has at most two children.

• The left subtree of a node contains only nodes with keys lesser than the node's key.

• The right subtree of a node contains only nodes with keys greater than the node's key.

Ans. 
Find the minimum number of dice throws required to reach the last cell on a 'Snake and Ladder' board.
• Start from the bottom left cell and move according to dice outcomes (1-6).

• Utilize snakes and ladders to reach the last cell faster.

• Keep track of the minimum number of throws required to reach the last cell.

• If unreachable, return -1 as output.

Anagram Pairs Verification Problem
Your task is to determine if two given strings are anagrams of each other. Two strings are considered anagrams if you can rearrange the letters of one string to form the...read more
Ans. 
Check if two strings are anagrams of each other by comparing their sorted characters.
• Sort the characters of both strings and compare them.

• Use a dictionary to count the frequency of characters in each string and compare the dictionaries.

• Ensure both strings have the same length before proceeding with comparison.

• Example: For input 'spar' and 'rasp', after sorting both strings, they become 'aprs' which are equal, so return

• Inheritance: Creating new classes based on existing classes, inheriting their attributes and methods. Example: Class SUV inheriting from class Car.

• Polymor...read more

Ans. 
Find the node where two linked lists merge, return -1 if no merging occurs.
• Traverse both lists to find the lengths and the last nodes

• Align the starting points of both lists by moving the longer list's pointer ahead by the difference in lengths

• Traverse both lists simultaneously until a common node is found, which is the merging point
