This is Very Technical Round asked questions on Data structures and my college subjects like dbms and OS

1. Terms of AP

Easy

Asked in company
Sopra Steria

Write a program to print the first x terms of the mathematical series 3N + 2 which are not multiples of 4.

The series is defined as:

T(N) = 3N + 2, where N is a positive integer starting from 1. Your task is to print the first x terms of this series, but you should exclude any term that is a multiple of 4.

Problem approach

Approach :
1) Declare a temporary array/list variable ‘ANS’ in which we store our answer.

2) Declare a temporary variable ‘GOT’ that will store the total number of elements we obtained until now, which are acceptable.

3) Declare a temporary variable ‘CURRENT’ that will store the current number of series 3 * ‘N’ + 2 and initialize with the first number of series 5.

4) Run a loop while ‘GOT’ is not equal to ‘X’:
4.1) If ‘CURRENT’ is not divisible by 4, we will append the value at the end of ‘ANS’ and increment the value of ‘GOT’ by 1.
4.2) Increment the value of ‘CURRENT’ by three as the next value of the series.

5) Finally, return ‘ANS’.

Given a singly linked list of 'N' nodes. The objective is to determine the middle node of a singly linked list. However, if the list has an even number of nodes, we return the second middle node.

Note:
1. If the list is empty, the function immediately returns None because there is no middle node to find.
2. If the list has only one node, then the only node in the list is trivially the middle node, and the function returns that node.
