Q2. Coverage to write transitions of states.
Ans. 
Coverage-driven verification techniques are used to ensure all possible state transitions are exercised.
• Coverage metrics like state, transition, and toggle coverage can be used to track the completeness of state transitions.

• Writing directed tests to cover specific state transitions can help achieve higher coverage.

• Random stimulus generation can also be used to explore different state transitions.

• Functional coverage can...read more

Add your answer
Q2. Two sum- return true or false
Ans. 
Given an array of integers, determine if there are two numbers that add up to a specific target.
• Iterate through the array and store each element in a hash set.

• For each element, check if the difference between the target and the element exists in the hash set.

• If the difference exists, return true; otherwise, continue iterating.

• Example: nums = [2, 7, 11, 15], target = 9. The function should return true as 2 + 7 = 9.

Q2. Can we pass an array to function.
Ans. 
Yes, an array can be passed to a function in embedded firmware programming.
• Arrays can be passed to functions by specifying the array name as the argument.

• The function can then access and manipulate the elements of the array.

• Example: void printArray(int arr[], int size) { ... }

• Example: int main() { int myArray[] = {1, 2, 3}; printArray(myArray, 3); }
