Selected Interview preparation journey
Preparation
Duration: 2.5 months
Topics: Data Structures, Pointers, OOPS, Algorithms, Dynamic Programming, DBMS
Tip 1 : Practice an ample amount of questions from online sites like GeeksforGeeks and HackkerRank on all major topics. Once you are done with topicwise preparation, go on and try out some timed tests too.
Tip 2 : Don't forget to revise OOPS, OS, DBMS too.
Tip 3 : Try out mock interviews with friends, that's the best thing you can do for yourself other than practising questions!!
Tip 4 : During the interview, one thing that is asked for sure is the time complexity of your solution, so always know the complexity of your algorithms.

Problem approach
Step 1 : Tried out a few test cases on my own and checked for the output.
Step 2 : Using the linear approach, merged the sorted arrays by iterating over both of them and finding the mid point of the sorted and merged array.
Note: The time complexity for this solution was O(m+n) This wasn't the most optimised solution, a better solution can be given which solves the question in O(log m+log...
