Journey
I was admitted to DTU college in the computer science stream. I was advised by my seniors to practice DSA from the very start of B.Tech, and I did not take that seriously. Honestly speaking, I regretted not taking their advice and in the third year I started coding, and I had to increase practice hours because I started late.
Application story
I applied for the post through the campus drive. After applying I practiced hard for it and the hardwork paid off at the last.
Why selected/rejected for the role?
I think I was on point with my coding solutions to the questions asked in the interviews. I did not able to provide the optimal solutions, and I was giving correct explanations to some theory questions asked.

Tip
Tip

Tip 1 : Even if you are stuck in the problem, just give a try. The interviewer will help you definitely for sure.
Tip 2 : Prepare Data Structures and Algorithms well. They mostly check our Problem Solving ability to find the solutions for the real world problems.
Tip 3 : Be enough confident, don't be nervous. Maintain atleast 2 projects in your resume

Ninja is given a binary search tree and an integer. Now he is given a particular key in the tree and returns its ceil value. Can you help Ninja solve the problem?

Note:
Ceil of an integer is the closest integer greater than or equal to a given number.
For example:
arr[] = {1, 2, 5, 7, 8, 9}, key = 3.
The closest integer greater than 3 in the given array is 5. So, its ceil value in the given array is 5.

A palindrome string is one that reads the same backward as well as forward.


You are given a string 'str'.


Find the minimum number of characters needed to insert in 'str' to make it a palindromic string.


Example :
Input: 'str' = "abca"

Output: 1

Explanation:
If we insert the character ‘b’ after ‘c’, we get the string "abcba", which is a palindromic string. Please note that there are also other ways possible.

You are given the arrival times, the burst times and the priority of ‘N’ processes in a CPU. You need to find the order of process scheduling according to Priority Based CPU Scheduling. Along with the order, also find the individual waiting and turnaround time for all the processes in order of their schedule.

Note:
1. The processes are numbered from 1 to 'N'.
2. The process with lowest arrival time will be scheduled first, followed by the next lowest arrival time, and so on.
3. If any two processes have the same arrival time, then you have to run the process based on the priority of the process. The highest priority process will be scheduled first, followed by the next highest priority, and so on.
4. If the two processes have the same priority, then you have to run the process with the lowest process number first.

1. Longest Palindromic Substring

WalmartIBMSamsung

You are given a string ('STR') of length 'N'. Find the longest palindromic substring. If there is more than one palindromic substring with the maximum length, return the one with the smaller start index.

Note:
A substring is a contiguous segment of a string.

For example : The longest palindromic substring of "ababc" is "aba", since "aba" is a palindrome and it is the longest substring of length 3 which is a palindrome, there is another palindromic substring of length 3 is "bab" since "aba" starting index is less than "bab", so "aba" is the answer.

2. Puzzle

How do we measure forty-five minutes using two identical wires, each of which takes an hour to burn? We have matchsticks with us. The wires burn non-uniformly. So, for example, the two halves of wire might burn in 10 minutes and 50 minutes respectively.

3. OS Questions

Questions related to virtual memory and cache implementation.
