As part of a recent job application I was asked to code a solution to this problem. Given, n = number of people standing in a circle. k = number of people to count over each time Each person is given a unique (incrementing) id. Starting with the first person (the lowest id), they begin counting from 1 to k. The person at k is t...
I am looking for the solution of following algorithm with minimal time and space complexity. Given two arrays a and b, find all pairs of elements (a1,b1) such that a1 belongs to Array A and b1 belongs to Array B whose sum a1+b1 = k (any integer). I was able to come up with O(n log n) approach where we will sort one of the array say...
In a recent discussion with a group of like minded software developers, we realized that, amongst other things, we all shared a similar depth of knowledge when it comes to video-games - both in terms of judging quality, and in terms of awareness of the landscape. While we may not agree on our own personal favorites, we were incredibly co...
I have had recently two telephone interviews. In both of them I have been asked what is Lambda expression as the last question. Well I said that Lambda expression is an unnamed method in place of a delegate. But somehow that wasn't enough. I find it very hard to explain this precisely on a telephone interview. Does anyone know bet...
I got this for my interview: Numbers are said to be "reverse ordered" if N[i] > N[j] for i < j. For example, in a list: 3 4 1 6 7 3, the reverse ordered items are (3,1) (4,1) (4,3) (6,3) (7,3). How to get the number of pairs of reverse ordered items in O(nlogn) time. ...
This classic ioccc entry is a hello world program written in c. Can anyone please provide an explanation of how it works? Original code (syntax highlighting intentionally missing): int i;main(){for(;i["]<i;++i){--i;}"];read('-'-'-',i+++"hell\ o, world!\n",'/'/'/'));}read(j,i,p){write(j/p+p,i---j,i/i);} Slightly cleaner: int i; main...
I had a C++ interview recently where I was asked, how does the compiler differentiate static data members having the same name in two different classes? Since all static data variables are stored in the data segment, there has to be a way by which the compiler keeps track of which static data belongs to which class especially when they...
