- Q1. Given a no K and an array. Find pair of elements whose sum is equal to given no K
- Ans.
Find pair of elements in an array whose sum is equal to a given number K.
Iterate through the array and for each element, check if K minus the element exists in the array.

The interviewer asked to put everything on the blackboard and write down the code of each and everything.
Question : Explain all the search algorithm you know with space and Time complexities.
Answer : Linear search : It is a sequential search algorithm where the entire array is traversed till the desired element is not found. Time complexity is O(N) and auxiliary space is O(1).
Binary search : In this algorithm, a sorted array is searched by repeatedly dividing the search interval in half.
Steps :
1. Initially the interval covers the whole array.
2. If the value to be searched is less than the item in the middle of the interval, narrow the interval to the lower half. Otherwise, narrow it to the upper half.
3. The process is repeated until the value is found or the interval is empty.
Time complexity is O(log n) and auxiliary space is O(1) in case of iterative implementation.

I wasn't asked to write any code in this interview. They asked me some questions on Machine Learning, because of my projects in them. Then they asked me if I knew graph algorithms. Since I knew BFS and DFS, I told them. They asked the difference between the two. Then they asked me if I knew how to find the shortest distance between two points in a graph. I didn't know Dijkstra's properly but I knew it worked on the greedy approach so was able to tell that. Then they asked me how would I find the second shortest path. I tried to answer it with the same greedy approach, but couldn't arrive at the complete solution.
Tips: They ask a tough theoretical question. It's ok if you don't know the answer, they only look for your approach.

- Q3.
Dijkstra's Shortest Path Problem
Given an undirected graph with ‘V’ vertices (labeled 0, 1, ... , V-1) and ‘E’ edges, where each edge has a weight representing the distance between two connected nodes (X,...
- Ans.
Dijkstra's algorithm is used to find the shortest path from a source node to all other nodes in a graph with weighted edges.
Implement Dijkstra's algorithm to find the shortest path distances from the source node to all other nodes in the graph.
Use a priority queue to efficiently select the next node with the shortest distance.
Update the distances of neighboring nodes based on the current node's distance and edge weight...

This was a 2 hour round consisting of 5 mcqs and 2 codes. The mcqs were pretty much simple based on DS, DBMS, OS, OOP, and C.
- Q1.
Rabbit Jumping Problem
Consider 'n' carrots numbered from 1 to 'n' and 'k' rabbits. Each rabbit jumps to carrots only at multiples of its respective jumping factor Aj (i.e., Aj, 2Aj, 3Aj, ...), for all ra...
- Ans.
Calculate uneaten carrots by rabbits with specific jumping factors.
Iterate through each carrot and check if any rabbit jumps on it.
Use the jumping factors to determine which carrots are eaten.
Subtract the eaten carrots from the total to get the uneaten count.
- Q2.
Flip Bits Problem Explanation
Given an array of integers
ARRof size N, consisting of 0s and 1s, you need to select a sub-array and flip its bits. Your task is to return the maximum count of 1s that can b... - Ans.
Given an array of 0s and 1s, find the maximum count of 1s by flipping a sub-array at most once.
Iterate through the array and keep track of the maximum count of 1s obtained by flipping a sub-array.
Consider flipping a sub-array from index i to j by changing 0s to 1s and vice versa.
Update the maximum count of 1s if the current count after flipping is greater.
Return the maximum count of 1s obtained by flipping a sub-array

- Ans.
Find sum of maximum and minimum elements in an array with least number of comparisons.
Iterate through the array and compare each element with current maximum and minimum to update them.
Initialize max as smallest possible value and min as largest possible value.
Return the sum of max and min after iterating through the array.
- Q2.
Invert a Binary Tree Problem Statement
Given a Binary Tree and one of its leaf nodes, invert the binary tree by following these guidelines:

- Ans.
Invert a binary tree based on a given leaf node as the root.
Start by finding the leaf node in the binary tree.
Move the left child of the leaf node to the right side of the leaf node.
Make the parent of the leaf node the left child of the leaf node.
Repeat the process for each test case.

- Q1.
Rearrange Array to Form Largest Number
Given an array
ARRconsisting of non-negative integers, rearrange the numbers to form the largest possible number. The digits within each number cannot be changed....
- Ans.
Rearrange the array elements to form the largest possible number by concatenating them.
Sort the array elements in a custom way where the concatenation of two numbers results in a larger number.
Use a custom comparator function while sorting the array elements.
Convert the sorted array elements to a single string to get the largest possible number.
- Q2. What is indexing in the context of databases?
- Ans.
Indexing in databases is a technique used to improve the speed of data retrieval by creating a data structure that allows for quick lookups.
Indexes are created on columns in a database table to speed up the retrieval of rows that match a certain condition.
They work similar to the index in a book, allowing the database to quickly find the relevant data without having to scan the entire table.
Examples of indexes include ...
- Q3. What are the advantages of B+ Trees in database management systems?
- Ans.
B+ Trees are advantageous in database management systems due to their ability to efficiently store and retrieve data.
B+ Trees have a high fanout, allowing for more keys to be stored in each node, reducing the height of the tree and improving search performance.
B+ Trees are balanced trees, ensuring that operations like search, insertion, and deletion have a predictable time complexity of O(log n).
B+ Trees are optimized ...
