I have a question. I was once asked this in the interview -- Suppose you have a queue.A very large queue containing objects. And you cannot fit this queue in the memory.

I had this coding question in an interview.I couldnt find an optimum solution to this. what I did was, for(i=0;i<n;i++) for(j=i;j<n;j++) if(a[i]+a[j]==k) print a[i], a[j] But that would give rise to a O(n2) complexity. Is there a better way to solve this?? Array A contains n integers. A pair (i,j) of indexes of the array A is called ...

Assume we have three arrays of length N which contain arbitrary numbers of type long. Then we are given a number M (of the same type) and our mission is to pick three numbers A, B and C one from each array (in other words A should be picked from first array, B from second one and C from third) so the sum A + B + C = M. Question: could w...
