Journey
I was unaware of this coding stuff till my school life. I got to know about the field of computer science in my class 11th. I found it interesting and decided that I will pursue my career in the field of computer science. I took admission in B.Tech CSE and learned the various concepts like DSA and all.
Application story
My friend texted me about this company visiting our campus and told me some of the important questions and topics for its selection process. I applied and participated in its selection process and luckily most of the questions were from the list of important questions shared by my friend. So, I was lucky here.
Why selected/rejected for the role?
I was confident during the full interview process. Actually, I worked a lot on my communications skills and I think they were the main reasons for me getting par the selection process.

There is an array 'JUMP' of size 'N' which is 1-indexed and you are currently at index 1. Your goal is to reach index 'N' (end).


When you are at index 'i', you can jump a maximum length of 'JUMP[i]' which means you can make a jump of size 1 to JUMP[i]. Return true if you can reach the end otherwise false.


Example:-
N = 5
JUMP = [1,2,3,4,5]

ANSWER:- The answer should be YES as you can jump from 1st index to 2nd index, from 2nd index to 4th index, and from 4th index to 5th index.

You are given a string 'S' containing only digits. Your task is to find all possible IP addresses that can be obtained from string 'S' in lexicographical order.

Note:
A valid IP address consists of exactly four integers, each integer is between 0 and 255 separated by single dots, and cannot have leading zeros except in the case of zero itself.
For example:
The following are valid IP addresses:
0.1.24.255
18.5.244.1

Following are invalid IP addresses:
0.01.24.255  (as  01  contains one leading zero).
18.312.244.1 (as 312 not lies between 0 and 255).
