  • Q1. Boundary traversal of a tree
  • Ans. 

    Boundary traversal of a tree is the process of visiting the nodes on the boundary of a tree in a specific order.

    • The boundary traversal can be done in three steps: left boundary, leaf nodes, and right boundary.

    • For the left boundary, start from the root and traverse down the left side of the tree until reaching a leaf node.

    • For the leaf nodes, perform an inorder traversal to visit all the leaf nodes of the tree.

  • Ans. 

    Given an infinite staircase with a broken kth step, find the maximum height we can reach in n rounds of jumping i steps.

    • We can start by jumping the maximum number of steps in each round until we reach the broken step.

    • After reaching the broken step, we can discard the i steps that would land us on the broken step and jump the remaining steps.

    • We can continue this pattern until we reach the maximum height we can reach wit
