Interview preparation journey

Journey
I started by learning programming languages such as Java, Python, and C++, and gradually worked my way up to more advanced concepts such as algorithms, data structures, and object-oriented programming. As I gained more experience, I discovered my passion for developing software systems that make a positive impact on people's lives. I took on challenging projects such as creating mobile apps, designing user interfaces, and building complex web applications. Along the way, I learned to work collaboratively with other developers, communicate effectively with clients, and manage project timelines. Today, I continue to learn and grow as a software engineer, constantly seeking new challenges and innovative ways to use technology to improve people's lives.
Application story
It was an off campus opportunity, I apply though the refer. Then I get the coding round link which is followed by 2 interviews.
Why selected/rejected for the role?
I was rejected because I was unable to come to solution of the question in the final round. And, when I go to check the solution, I see its in the previous asked questions of American Express. Only if I see the coding ninjas suggested questions for this company, I will be able to crack.

1. Left Rotations of Array

IBMIBMThought Works

You are given an array consisting of 'N' elements and you need to perform 'Q' queries on the given array. Each query consists of an integer which tells the number of elements by which you need to left rotate the given array. For each query return the final array obtained after performing the left rotations.

Note:

Perform each query on the original array only i.e. every output should be according to the original order of elements.

Example:

Let the array be [1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6] and the queries be {2, 4, 1}. For every query, we’ll perform the required number of left rotations on the array.

For the first query, rotate the given array to the left by 2 elements, so the resultant array is: [3, 4, 5, 6, 1, 2].

For the second query, rotate the given array to the left by 4 elements, so the resultant array is: [5, 6, 1, 2, 3, 4].

For the third query, rotate the given array to the left by 1 element, so the resultant array is: [2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 1].

Given a singly linked list of integers. Your task is to return the head of the reversed linked list.

For example:
The given linked list is 1 -> 2 -> 3 -> 4-> NULL. Then the reverse linked list is 4 -> 3 -> 2 -> 1 -> NULL and the head of the reversed linked list will be 4.

IBMFacebookSamsung R&D Institute

You are given two strings A and B. Find the index of the first occurrence of A in B. If A is not present in B, then return -1.

For Example:
A = “bc”, B = “abcddbc”.
String “A” is present at index 1, and 5(0-based index), but we will return 1 as it is the first occurrence of “A” in string “B”.

2. Course Schedule II

You have been given ‘N’ courses and some courses may have prerequisites. Now consider a matrix ‘PREREQUISITES’ of size 'M' x 2 which represents that you must complete the course 'PREREQUISITES[i][1]' before the course 'PREREQUISITES[i][0]'.


Your task is to return the order of courses you should take to finish all courses.


Note:
If it is impossible to finish all courses, return an empty array. If there are multiple answers, return any one.


For example:
Input:
3 2
1 2
2 3

There are three courses to take. To start with, First course 3 is taken. Then course 2 is taken for which course 3 must be completed. 

At last course 1 is taken for which course 2 must be completed. So the correct course order is [3,2,1].

3. Check Bipartite Graph

Given a graph, check whether the graph is bipartite or not. Your function should return true if the given graph's vertices can be divided into two independent sets, ‘U’ and ‘V’ such that every edge (‘u’, ‘v’) either connects a vertex from ‘U’ to ‘V’ or a vertex from ‘V’ to ‘U’.

You are given a 2D array ‘edges’ which contains 0 and 1, where ‘edges[i][j]’ = 1 denotes a bi-directional edge from ‘i’ to ‘j’.

Note:
If edges[i][j] = 1, that implies there is a bi-directional edge between ‘i’ and ‘j’, that means there exists both edges from ‘i’ to ‘j’ and to ‘j’ to ‘i’.

For example

Given:
‘N’ = 3
‘edges’ = [[0, 1, 1], [0, 0, 1], [0,0,0]].
