Asked in companies
Write Algorithm for Bubble Sort. Explain how it works to a Layman. What sorts are better than the Bubble Sort.
Problem approach
Wrote pseudocode for it and explained the algorithm in simple words. Mentioned that merge and quick sort are better. Merge sort will however use more memory and explained how Quick sort's worst case can be avoided by using a random pivot.
3. Puzzle
You have a set of 10 weights, each weight weighing 10g. There are 10 such sets. But set contains 10 weights of 9g. Determine the set of 9g weights by using a weighing scale once.
Soln: take 1 weight from set1, 2 from set2 ... 10 weights from set10. Put all of them on the weighing scale at once. 100g - weight on the scale will give the set for the 9g weights.
