1. Justify Text

Given a sentence(in the form of an array of words), and an integer ‘L’, return an array of strings i.e a paragraph such that each line has exactly ‘L’ characters, and is left and right justified.

Justification of text means that space is added between words so that both edges of each line are aligned with both margins. The last line in the paragraph is aligned left.

One needs to add the maximum number of words in a line such that the number of lines is minimised.

We can add whitespaces in a line so that each line has exactly the same number of characters i.e L.

If the number of spaces on a line does not divide evenly between words, the empty slots on the left will be assigned more spaces than the slots on the right.

For the last line of text, it should be left justified and no extra space is inserted between words.

For example:
Let the given sentence be: [ “what”, “must”, “be”, “shall”, “be.”]
And L=12.

The justified output will be :

[ “what must be”
“Shall be.”       ]

Note that the last line is only left justified.

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.

Ninja has to implement an ‘AVL_TREE’ from scratch.

He is given ‘N’ values, representing the values of nodes to be inserted. Ninja has to insert these values into the ‘AVL_TREE’ and return its root after inserting all the nodes.

Note: An ‘AVL_TREE’ is a self-balancing Binary Search Tree (BST) where the difference between heights of left and right subtrees cannot be more than one for all nodes.

For example:

MicrosoftCIS - Cyber InfrastructureGartner

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


Your task is to return the longest palindromic substring. If there are multiple strings, return any.


A substring is a contiguous segment of a string.


For example :
str = "ababc"

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 starting index of "aba" is less than "bab", so "aba" is the answer.
Problem approach

You are given a string (STR) of length N.
Your task is to 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.
