1. Special Sum of Array

OptumSamsungNokia

You have been given an array/list ‘arr’ of length ‘N’, which contains single digit elements at every index. Your task is to return the sum of all elements of the array. But the final sum should also be a single digit.

To keep the output single digit - you need to keep adding the digits of the output number till a single digit is left.

For example:
For the given array [5, 8, 4, 9]

The sum of the elements of the array will be
5 + 8 + 4 + 9 = 26.
Since 26 is not a single-digit number, we will again take the sum of the digits of 26. 
2 + 6 = 8.
Now 8 is a single-digit number. So we will stop here and return 8.
Problem approach

I run a loop and added all the elements of an array and store it inside a variable sum and return that variable sum

FreshworksWalmartSamsung R&D Institute

Given a text and a wildcard pattern of size N and M respectively, implement a wildcard pattern matching algorithm that finds if the wildcard pattern is matched with the text. The matching should cover the entire text not partial text.

The wildcard pattern can include the characters ‘?’ and ‘*’

 ‘?’ – matches any single character 
 ‘*’ – Matches any sequence of characters(sequence can be of length 0 or more)

Bubble Sort is one of the sorting algorithms that works by repeatedly swapping the adjacent elements of the array if they are not in sorted order.

You are given an unsorted array consisting of N non-negative integers. Your task is to sort the array in non-decreasing order using the Bubble Sort algorithm.

For Example:
Bubble Sort implementation for the given array:  {6,2,8,4,10} is shown below :-

Problem approach

Bubble Sort Algorithm
Bubble Sort is the simplest sorting algorithm that works by repeatedly swapping the adjacent elements if they are in the wrong order. This algorithm is not suitable for large data sets as its average and worst case time complexity is quite high.

How Bubble Sort Works?
Consider an array arr[] = {5, 1, 4, 2, 8}

First Pass: 

Bubble sort starts with very first two elements, comparing them to check which one is greater.
( 5 1 4 2 8 ) –> ( 1 5 4 2 8 ), Here, algorithm compares the first two elements, and swaps since 5 > 1. 
( 1 5 4 2 8 ) –> ( 1 4 5 2 8 ), Swap since 5 > 4 
( 1 4 5 2 8 ) –> ( 1 4 2 5 8 ), Swap since 5 > 2 
( 1 4 2 5 8 ) –> ( 1 4 2 5 8 ), Now, since these elements are already in order (8 > 5), algorithm does not swap them.
Second Pass: 

Now, during second iteration it should look like this:
( 1 4 2 5 8 ) –> ( 1 4 2 5 8 ) 
( 1 4 2 5 8 ) –> ( 1 2 4 5 8 ), Swap since 4 > 2 
( 1 2 4 5 8 ) –> ( 1 2 4 5 8 ) 
( 1 2 4 5 8 ) –> ( 1 2 4 5 8 ) 
Third Pass: 

Now, the array is already sorted, but our algorithm does not know if it is completed.
The algorithm needs one whole pass without any swap to know it is sorted.
( 1 2 4 5 8 ) –> ( 1 2 4 5 8 ) 
( 1 2 4 5 8 ) –> ( 1 2 4 5 8 ) 
( 1 2 4 5 8 ) –> ( 1 2 4 5 8 ) 
( 1 2 4 5 8 ) –> ( 1 2 4 5 8 )
