SDE - Intern

You are given an 'N * N' matrix of integers where each row and each column is sorted in increasing order. You are given a target integer 'X'.

Find the position of 'X' in the matrix. If it exists then return the pair {i, j} where 'i' represents the row and 'j' represents the column of the array, otherwise return {-1,-1}

For example:

If the given matrix is:
[ [1, 2, 5],
  [3, 4, 9],
  [6, 7, 10]] 
We have to find the position of 4. We will return {1,1} since A[1][1] = 4.

We are suffering from the Second wave of Covid-19. The Government is trying to increase its vaccination drives. Ninja wants to help the Government to plan an effective method to help increase vaccination following safety measures. Time is running out. Can you help the nation?

You are given two positive integers: ‘n,’ ‘maxVaccines’ denoting the number of days for which this vaccination drive will go on and the total number of vaccines available for the drive, respectively. You have to find the number of vaccines administered each day. You are also given a number ‘dayNumber,’ and we are interested to know the maximum number of vaccines that can be administered on ‘dayNumber’ th day.

The rules of the vaccination drive :

1. There should be a positive number of vaccines administered each day during the vaccination drive.

2. The absolute difference between the number of vaccines in two consecutive days should not exceed 1.

3. The sum of all the elements of the vaccines array does not exceed maxVaccines, that is, you cannot administer more vaccines than what is provided to you.

4. Vaccines administered on ‘dayNumber’ th day should be maximized.

Given a string, determine if it is a palindrome, considering only alphanumeric characters.

Palindrome

A palindrome is a word, number, phrase, or other sequences of characters which read the same backwards and forwards.

Example:

If the input string happens to be, "malayalam" then as we see that this word can be read the same as forward and backwards, it is said to be a valid palindrome.

The expected output for this example will print, 'true'.

From that being said, you are required to return a boolean value from the function that has been asked to implement.
