Journey
Our seniors informed us how important DSA is to crack interviews. Therefore, I started practicing DSA from GeeksFromGeeks, Leetcode, and code studio in my second year. I practice a lot of questions.
Application story
This company visited to my campus for the internship. We just had to upload resume and fill all details in the form. First, they took the online assessment. Later, they called us for the interview rounds.
Why selected/rejected for the role?
I was selected because I was able to answer all coding questions properly. I started with a naive approach and went ahead to explain the optimized approach for almost all the questions.

You have been given a Binary Tree of distinct integers and two nodes ‘X’ and ‘Y’. You are supposed to return the LCA (Lowest Common Ancestor) of ‘X’ and ‘Y’.


The LCA of ‘X’ and ‘Y’ in the binary tree is the shared ancestor of ‘X’ and ‘Y’ that is located farthest from the root.


Note :
You may assume that given ‘X’ and ‘Y’ definitely exist in the given binary tree.
For example :
For the given binary tree
