SDE - 2

Stark Industry is planning to organize Stark Expo, for which various departments have to organize meetings to check their preparations. Since Stark Tower has limited rooms available for the meeting, Tony decided to allot a room to each meeting so that all the meetings are organized in the least possible conference rooms, and a the moment, only one meeting will happen in one room. So, he asked JARVIS to allot each meeting a room and tell the minimum number of conference rooms to be reserved. But, since JARVIS was busy rendering another Iron Man suit model, he asked you to help.

You are given an array of integers ARR of size N x 2, representing the start and end time for N meetings. Your task is to find the minimum number of rooms required to organize all the meetings.

Note:

1. You can assume that all the meetings will happen on the same day.
2. Also, as soon as a meeting gets over if some other meeting is scheduled to start at that moment, they can then be allocated that room.

Note:

Try to solve the problem in linear time complexity.

For Example:

Consider there are three meetings scheduled with timings:
1pm - 4pm
3pm - 5pm
4pm - 6pm

At the start of time, meeting 1 will be allotted room 1, which will be occupied till 4 pm hence for meeting 2 we’ll have to provide another room. At 4 pm, meeting 3 can be organized in room 1 because by that time, meeting 1 would have ended. Hence we’ll require two rooms for holding all three meetings.

You are given an integer 'X' and your task is to find an integer 'Y' such that the bitwise XOR of the integers 'X' and 'Y' give the maximum possible value. The integer 'Y' should not be greater than 2305843009213693951 ((2^61) - 1).

A bitwise XOR is a binary operation that takes two bit patterns of equal length and performs the logical exclusive OR operation on each pair of corresponding bits. The result in each position is 1 if only one of the bits is 1, but will be 0 if both are 0 or both are 1.

Note:

1. The maximum obtainable value can always be stored in 64-bit memory space.
2. The given number 'X' is always non-negative.

You are given a non-decreasing array and an integer K. You need to remove exactly K integers from the given array such that the maximum difference between adjacent elements is minimum.

For example:

If the given array is: [2 6 7 7 10] and K = 2. We need to remove A[0] = 2 and A[4] = 10, then the resultant array would become [6 7 7], where the difference between adjacent pairs are {1, 0}. Thus our answer would be 1. You can see that there would not be any better answer than 1 for this array

You are given a sorted array 'ARR' and a number 'X'. Your task is to count the number of occurrences of 'X' in 'ARR'.

Note :

1. If 'X' is not found in the array, return 0.
2. The given array is sorted in non-decreasing order.

You have been given a grid containing some oranges. Each cell of this grid has one of the three integers values:

Value 0 - representing an empty cell.

Value 1 - representing a fresh orange.

Value 2 - representing a rotten orange.

Every second, any fresh orange that is adjacent(4-directionally) to a rotten orange becomes rotten.

Your task is to find out the minimum time after which no cell has a fresh orange. If it's impossible to rot all the fresh oranges then print -1.

Note:

1. The grid has 0-based indexing.
2. A rotten orange can affect the adjacent oranges 4 directionally i.e. Up, Down, Left, Right.

Given a linked list having two pointers in each node. The first one points to the next node of the list, however, the other pointer is random and can point to any node of the list or null. The task is to create a deep copy of the given linked list and return its head. We will validate whether the linked list is a copy of the original linked list or not.

A deep copy of a Linked List means we do not copy the references of the nodes of the original Linked List rather for each node in the original Linked List, a new node is created.

For example,

Random pointers are shown in red and next pointers in black.
