SDE - 1

You have been given a long type array/list 'arr’ of size 'n’.

It represents an elevation map wherein 'arr[i]’ denotes the elevation of the 'ith' bar.

Print the total amount of rainwater that can be trapped in these elevations.

Note :

The width of each bar is the same and is equal to 1.

Example:

Input: ‘n’ = 6, ‘arr’ = [3, 0, 0, 2, 0, 4].

Output: 10

Explanation: Refer to the image for better comprehension:

Note :

You don't need to print anything. It has already been taken care of. Just implement the given function.

Design a stack that supports push, pop, top, and retrieving the minimum element in constant time.

1. Push(num): Push the given number in the stack.
2. Pop: Remove and return the top element from the stack if present, else return -1.
3. Top: return the top element of the stack if present, else return -1.
4. getMin: Returns minimum element of the stack if present, else return -1.

For Example:

For the following input: 
1
5
1 1
1 2
4
2
3

For the first two operations, we will just insert 1 and then 2 into the stack which was empty earlier. So now the stack is => [2,1]
In the third operation, we need to return the minimum element of the stack, i.e., 1. So now the stack is => [2,1]
For the fourth operation, we need to pop the topmost element of the stack, i.e., 2. Now the stack is => [1]
In the fifth operation, we return the top element of the stack, i.e. 1 as it has one element. Now the stack is => [1]

So, the final output will be: 
1 2 1

You have been given a square chessboard of size ‘N x N’. The position coordinates of the Knight and the position coordinates of the target are also given.

Your task is to find out the minimum steps a Knight will take to reach the target position.

Example:

knightPosition: {3,4}
targetPosition: {2,1}

The knight can move from position (3,4) to positions (1,3), (2,2) and (4,2). Position (4,2) is selected and the ‘stepCount’ becomes 1. From position (4,2), the knight can directly jump to the position (2,1) which is the target point and ‘stepCount’ becomes 2 which is the final answer. 

Note:

1. The coordinates are 1 indexed. So, the bottom left square is (1,1) and the top right square is (N, N).

2. The knight can make 8 possible moves as given in figure 1.

3. A Knight moves 2 squares in one direction and 1 square in the perpendicular direction (or vice-versa).

You have been given a binary tree of integers. You are supposed to serialize and deserialize (refer to notes) the given binary tree.

You can choose any algorithm to serialize/deserialize the given binary tree. You only have to ensure that the serialized string can be deserialized to the original binary tree.

Note :

Serialization is the process of translating a data structure or object state into a format that can be stored or transmitted (for example, across a computer network) and reconstructed later. The opposite operation, that is, extracting a data structure from stored information, is deserialization.

You are given two Singly Linked Lists of integers, which may have an intersection point.

Your task is to return the first intersection node. If there is no intersection, return NULL.

Example:-

The Linked Lists, where a1, a2, c1, c2, c3 is the first linked list and b1, b2, b3, c1, c2, c3 is the second linked list, merging at node c1.
