I appeared for an interview in Feb 2025, where I was asked the following questions.

  • Q1. Basic pillar of OOP
  • Ans. 

    The basic pillars of OOP are encapsulation, inheritance, polymorphism, and abstraction, which enhance code organization and reusability.

    • Encapsulation: Bundling data and methods that operate on the data within one unit (e.g., a class).

    • Inheritance: Mechanism where a new class derives properties and behavior from an existing class (e.g., a 'Dog' class inheriting from an 'Animal' class).

    • Polymorphism: Ability to present the...

  • Answered by AI
  • Q2. What is the difference between overloading and overriding in programming?
  • Ans. 

    Overloading allows multiple methods with the same name but different parameters; overriding replaces a method in a subclass.

    • Overloading occurs within the same class, while overriding involves a subclass and its superclass.

    • Example of overloading: A method 'add(int a, int b)' and 'add(double a, double b)'.

    • Example of overriding: A subclass 'Dog' overriding a method 'sound()' from a superclass 'Animal'.

    • Overloading is resol...

  • Answered by AI
  • Q3. What's abstraction and why we need it? How to achieve it
  • Ans. 

    Abstraction simplifies complex systems by hiding unnecessary details, focusing on essential features for better understanding and usability.

    • 1. Definition: Abstraction is a fundamental concept in software engineering that involves hiding the complex reality while exposing only the necessary parts.

    • 2. Purpose: It helps in reducing programming complexity and increases efficiency by allowing developers to focus on high-leve...

  • Answered by AI
  • Q4. Different types of constructor? How does move constructor works?
  • Ans. 

    Constructors initialize objects; types include default, parameterized, copy, and move constructors.

    • Default Constructor: Initializes objects with default values. Example: `MyClass obj;`

    • Parameterized Constructor: Initializes objects with specific values. Example: `MyClass obj(5);`

    • Copy Constructor: Creates a new object as a copy of an existing object. Example: `MyClass obj2 = obj1;`

    • Move Constructor: Transfers resources fr...

  • Answered by AI
  • Q5. What's copy constructor? What's shallow & deep copy
  • Ans. 

    A copy constructor creates a new object as a copy of an existing object, with shallow and deep copy defining the copy's depth.

    • A copy constructor is a special constructor in C++ used to create a new object as a copy of an existing object.

    • Shallow copy duplicates the object's immediate values, but not the objects they reference.

    • Deep copy duplicates all objects referenced by the original object, creating a complete indepen...

  • Answered by AI
  • Q6. Why we need to pass object by reference in copy constructor? Why it's keep as constant
  • Ans. 

    Passing objects by reference in copy constructors avoids unnecessary copying and maintains const correctness.

    • 1. Efficiency: Passing by reference avoids the overhead of copying large objects, improving performance.

    • 2. Const correctness: Keeping the parameter as const ensures the original object cannot be modified during the copy process.

    • 3. Example: In a class 'MyClass', a copy constructor might look like 'MyClass(const M

  • Answered by AI
  • Q7. What's conversion constructor
  • Ans. 

    A conversion constructor allows implicit or explicit conversion from one type to another in C++.

    • Defined in C++ to convert one type to another.

    • Takes a single argument of a different type.

    • Example: class A { public: A(int x) { /*...*/ } }; A a = 5; // implicit conversion

    • Can be marked explicit to prevent implicit conversions.

    • Useful for type safety and clarity in code.

  • Answered by AI
  • Q8. Runtime polymorphism. Vptr & vtable
  • Q9. Stl three parts in STL vector vs list size vs capacity in vector
  • Q10. DLL vs standard library how does DLL works? how executable know which DLL to load and does it unload them after
  • Q11. Can you overload new and delete operator?
  • Ans. 

    Yes, you can overload new and delete operators in C++ for custom memory management.

    • Overloading allows custom behavior for memory allocation and deallocation.

    • Example: Custom new operator to track memory usage.

    • Example: Custom delete operator to log deallocations.

    • Syntax: Use 'void* operator new(size_t size)' and 'void operator delete(void* pointer)'.

    • Can improve performance or add debugging features.

  • Answered by AI
  • Q12. Smart pointer unique vs share pointer
  • Ans. 

    Unique pointers manage single ownership, while shared pointers allow multiple ownership of the same resource.

    • Unique Pointer: std::unique_ptr<int> ptr1(new int(10)); // Only one owner

    • Shared Pointer: std::shared_ptr<int> ptr2(new int(20)); // Multiple owners possible

    • Unique pointers cannot be copied, only moved: std::unique_ptr<int> ptr3 = std::move(ptr1);

    • Shared pointers use reference counting to manage ...

  • Answered by AI
  • Q13. Which is better error throw or error display
  • Ans. 

    Error throwing is generally better for handling exceptions programmatically, while error display is useful for user feedback.

    • Error throwing allows developers to manage exceptions in code, e.g., using try-catch blocks in Java.

    • Error display provides immediate feedback to users, e.g., showing 'Invalid input' on a form.

    • Throwing errors can lead to cleaner code by separating error handling from business logic.

    • Displaying erro...

  • Q14. Given a grid and small group size to mesh that grid there are multiple points on grid find which group have maximum points
  • Q15. Runtime polymorphism child pointer pointing to parent object with and without virtual how to expose methods across DLL's
  • Q16. Find if point is inside shape if there are multiple shapes intersecting any better solution? how will you store if there are multiple points on a single line with better data structure
  • Ans. 

    Determine if a point is inside multiple intersecting shapes using efficient data structures.

    • Use a spatial data structure like a QuadTree or R-tree to store shapes for efficient querying.

    • For point-in-shape tests, use bounding boxes to quickly eliminate shapes that cannot contain the point.

    • For multiple points on a line, consider using a sorted list or a balanced tree structure to maintain order and allow efficient search...
