  • Q1. An array which is a Post order traversal of a Binary Tree. Write a function to check if the Binary Tree formed from the array is a Binary Search Tree.
  • Ans. 

    Check if a Binary Tree formed from a Post order traversal array is a Binary Search Tree.

    • Start by constructing the Binary Tree from the given Post order traversal array.

    • Check if the Binary Tree satisfies the properties of a Binary Search Tree.

    • Use recursion to check if each node's value is within the correct range.

    • Example: Post order traversal array [1, 3, 2] forms a Binary Search Tree.

    • Example: Post order traversal array

  • Q4. Given two strings, write an efficient algorithm (in Java) to compare the two of them. Your algorithm should handle all cases
  • Ans. 

    An efficient algorithm in Java to compare two strings.

    • Use the equals() method to compare two strings for equality.

    • Consider using compareTo() method for comparing strings lexicographically.

    • Handle null strings separately to avoid NullPointerException.

    • Use equalsIgnoreCase() method for case-insensitive comparison.

  • Answered by AI
  • Q5. You are given a binary array with N elements: d[0], d[1], ... d[N - 1]. You can perform AT MOST one move on the array: choose any two integers [L, R], and flip all the elements between (and including) the ...
  • Q6. Given a unsorted array. Create a balanced B tree. Whether it is possible to solve this problem algorithm in logarithmic complexity ?
  • Ans. 

    It is not possible to create a balanced B tree from an unsorted array in logarithmic complexity.

    • Creating a balanced B tree from an unsorted array requires sorting the array first, which has a complexity of O(n log n).

    • Balanced B tree construction typically has a complexity of O(n log n) or O(n) depending on the algorithm used.

    • Example: If we have an unsorted array [3, 1, 4, 1, 5, 9, 2, 6, 5], we would need to sort it fir

  • Q8. Given a list of arraylists containing elements, write a function that prints out the permutations of of the elements such that, each of the permutation set contains only 1 element from each arraylist and t...
  • Ans. 

    Function to print permutations of elements from arraylists with no duplicates.

    • Use recursion to generate all possible permutations by selecting one element from each arraylist at a time.

    • Keep track of used elements to avoid duplicates in the permutation sets.

    • Use a set data structure to store and check for duplicates efficiently.

  • Answered by AI
  • Q9. Delete every third element of an array until only one element is remaining. Tell the index of that remaining element in O(1) time complexity
  • Q10. You are given a sorted skewed binary tree. How can you create a binary search tree of minimum height from it?
  • Ans. 

    To create a binary search tree of minimum height from a sorted skewed binary tree, we can use the following approach:

    • Find the middle element of the sorted skewed binary tree.

    • Make it the root of the new binary search tree.

    • Recursively repeat the process for the left and right halves of the original tree.

    • Attach the resulting subtrees as the left and right children of the root.

  • Answered by AI
  • Q11. Delete the repeated elements in a singly linked list in O(n) time complexity without using extra space. Linked list contains elements in unsorted order(Sorting is not allowed)
  • Q12. A user creates a file test.sh on a linux system. He wishes to give another user on the same system the permission to execute that file. What permissions should he give to the file?
  • Q13. Where could we use deadlock? The interviewer was very clear about his question. The use of deadlock.?In which scenario could we use deadlock?

  • Q17. What is the difference between MVC and Factory pattern?
  • Q18. There are two interfaces B and C each having the same method public m1() class A implements B and C If class A has to implement method m1, the implemented method would be of which interface?
  • Ans. 

    The implemented method would be of the interface that is extended first in the class declaration.

    • In this case, since class A implements B and C, the implemented method m1 would be of interface B if B is extended first in the class declaration.

    • If C was extended first in the class declaration, then the implemented method m1 would be of interface C.

    • The order of interface extension determines which interface's method is im
