Interview preparation journey

Journey
I started studying for campus interviews a few months before and started watching the Job Interview experiences of several candidates for a Particular company that was about to come to my campus soon and the day this company came, I was nervous before the interview because it was my first on-campus college interview. I revised all the basics before the interview as I woke up early. I waited for the Teams call to start as I was first in the queue, given all the answers that were asked of me except a few, and I was a little tensed after the interview because I could not answer a few questions. But it all went well as I got selected for the HR round in the evening. I completed the HR round the next day and was selected.
Application story
My college's training and placement cell forwarded my name to the company along with other students. I applied through google form.
Why selected/rejected for the role?
I was selected because I was clear with my project details (Implementation, working, advantages, etc.). I learned from my selection that you should be fully aware of the things you have written in your Resume and know how to explain your projects properly.

You are given an integer ‘N’. You have to print the value of Factorial of ‘N’. The Factorial of a number ‘N’ is defined as the product of all numbers from 1 to ‘N’.

For Example:
Consider if ‘N’ = 4, the Factorial of 4 will be the product of all numbers from 1 to 4, which is 1 * 2 * 3 * 4 = 24. Hence, the answer is 24.

IndiaMartOlaCognizant

You are given a string 'str' of length 'N'.


Your task is to reverse the original string word by word.


There can be multiple spaces between two words and there can be leading or trailing spaces but in the output reversed string you need to put a single space between two words, and your reversed string should not contain leading or trailing spaces.


Example :
If the given input string is "Welcome to Coding Ninjas", then you should return "Ninjas Coding to Welcome" as the reversed string has only a single space between two words and there is no leading or trailing space.
Problem approach

1. Run a for loop to traverse the string and create a temporary string to store the words
