Q1. Given a matrix zeros and ones find minimum distance for each one to a zero.
Ans. 
Given a matrix of zeros and ones, find the minimum distance for each one to a zero.
• Use breadth-first search (BFS) to find the minimum distance from each one to a zero.

• Start by initializing a queue with all the zeros in the matrix.

• While the queue is not empty, dequeue a zero and enqueue its neighboring ones.

Ans. 
Detect cycle in a directed graph using depth-first search (DFS) algorithm.
• Use DFS to traverse the graph and detect back edges indicating a cycle.

• Maintain a visited array to keep track of visited nodes during traversal.

• If a node is visited again during traversal and it is not the parent node, then a cycle exists.

• Return true if a cycle is detected, false otherwise.
