MicrosoftHCL TechnologiesPoly Inc.

You are given a Singly Linked List of ‘N’ positive integers. Your task is to add a node having the value ‘VAL’ at position ‘POS’ in the linked list.

Note:
Assume that the Indexing for the linked list starts from 0.
EXAMPLE:
Input: ‘N’ = 5, 'LIST' = [1, 1, 2, 3, 4, -1], ‘VAL’ = 2, ‘POS’ = 1.

Output: 1 -> 2 -> 1 -> 2 -> 3 -> 4 

Here in the given list we can see that the node having value 2 is inserted at position 1.

For a given array with N elements, you need to find the length of the longest subsequence from the array such that all the elements of the subsequence are sorted in strictly increasing order.

Strictly Increasing Sequence is when each term in the sequence is larger than the preceding term.

For example:
[1, 2, 3, 4] is a strictly increasing array, while [2, 1, 4, 3] is not.

Asked in companies
HCL TechnologiesHCL TechnologiesWells Fargo

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.
Problem approach

import java.io.*;
// importing utility classes
import java.util.*;

// Main class
class GFG {

// Method 1
// To calculate factorial
static int factorial(int n)
{

// Handling base case
// If value of n=1 or n=0, it returns 1
if (n == 0 || n == 1)
return 1;

// Generic case
// Otherwise we do n*(n-1)!
return n * factorial(n - 1);
}

// Method 2
// main driver method
public static void main(String[] args)
{

// Calling method 1 to compute factorial and
// storing the result into a variable
int ans = factorial(5);

// Print and display the factorial of number
// customly passed as an argument
System.out.println("Factorial of 5 is :" + ans);
}
