I appeared for an interview before Jun 2016.
The question asks to construct a k-ary tree using the given k and DFS traversal string.
Iterate through the DFS traversal string
If the current character is 'P', create a parent node
If the current character is 'L', create a leaf node
Link the nodes according to the DFS traversal order
To determine if a graph has a node with n degree, iterate through all nodes and count their edges.
Iterate through each node in the graph
Count the number of edges connected to each node
If any node has n edges, then the graph has a node with n degree

Convert a binary string to its decimal equivalent integer.
Iterate through the binary string from right to left, multiplying each digit by 2 raised to the power of its position.
Add the results of the multiplication to get the decimal equivalent.
Ensure the binary string consists only of '0' and '1' characters.
Handle multiple test cases by repeating the conversion process for each case.

So This was a very interactive round . There were two interviewers , one male and one female . The male interviewer was quite experienced where as female interviewer was relatively new . The Interview started by a small introduction followed by some OOPS related questions where I was tested on how i perceive the concept of OOPS in real life . Then this conversation was followed by some core concepts of JAVA like abstract classes and interfaces . Then I was asked about my projects that i mentioned in my resume , then after some healthy discussion on those projects , the interviewer started to question about DBMS , I was asked some basic queries followed by some advanced queries and then followed by a discussion on SQL vs NoSQL . Then Interviewers asked me about my tech stack and the source of my technical knowledge. Then at last I was asked that why Blackrock and this concluded my Interview.
Ninja is provided with 'N' stars and the task is to construct a triangle such that the 'i'th level of the triangle uses 'i' number of stars. The goal is to make th...
Given 'N' stars, construct a triangle with maximum height using 'i' stars in 'i'th level.
Calculate the maximum height of the triangle using the formula: height = floor((-1 + sqrt(1 + 8 * N)) / 2)
Iterate through each test case and calculate the maximum height for each 'N'.
Output the maximum height for each test case.
Tip 1 : Be precise about what to do and what not to do.
Tip 2 : Always Revise the concepts you have done in past , use prime day revision theory.
Tip 3 : Do as many projects as you can but always mention those projects in which you are very well versed.
Tip 4 : Keep on reading random news related to your favourite tech and always have an in depth knowledge of what tech you currently use.
Tip 1 : Keep it short , precise and effective .
Tip 2 : Mention even small things that you did had an impact on other people.

Find the length of the largest subarray with equal number of 0s and 1s in a given array.
Iterate through the array and maintain a count of 0s and 1s encountered so far.
Store the count difference in a hashmap with the index as the key.
If the same count difference is encountered again, the subarray between the two indices has equal 0s and 1s.
Return the length of the longest subarray found.
Round duration - 45 minutes
