Given two integers ‘Left’ and ‘Right’. Your task is to find the total count of ‘megaprime’ numbers from the range ‘Left’ to ‘Right’. A ‘megaprime’ number is a prime number and its individual digits are also prime.

For example, ‘53’ is a ‘megaprime’ number because ‘53’ is a prime number and its individual digits,‘3’ and ‘5’, are also prime. ‘13’ is not a ‘megaprime’ number because out of its individual digits (1, 3), ‘1’ is not prime.

Note :

1.’Left’ and ‘Right’ both are inclusive in the range ‘Left’ to ‘Right’.

Example :

‘Left’ = ‘23’  and ‘Right’ = ‘37’

binary_heap

All prime numbers from ‘23’ to ‘37’ are 23, 29, 31, 37

23 is ‘megaprime’ number because ‘2’ and ‘3’ both are prime
29 is not ‘megaprime’ number because ‘9’ is not a prime
31 is not a ‘megaprime’ number because ‘1’ is not a prime number
37 is ‘megaprime’ number because ‘3’ and ‘7’ both are prime numbers
Hence there are two ‘megaprime’ numbers 23, 37 out of 23, 29, 31, 37.

Bob lives with his wife in a city named Berland. Bob is a good husband, so he goes out with his wife every Friday to ‘Arcade’ mall.

‘Arcade’ is a very famous mall in Berland. It has a very unique transportation method between shops. Since the shops in the mall are laying in a straight line, you can jump on a very advanced trampoline from the shop i, and land in any shop between (i) to (i + Arr[i]), where Arr[i] is a constant given for each shop.

There are N shops in the mall, numbered from 0 to N-1. Bob's wife starts her shopping journey from shop 0 and ends it in shop N-1. As the mall is very crowded on Fridays, unfortunately, Bob gets lost from his wife. So he wants to know, what is the minimum number of trampoline jumps from shop 0 he has to make in order to reach shop N-1 and see his wife again. If it is impossible to reach the last shop, return -1.

SAP LabsGoldman SachsAcko

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.

MicrosoftHCL TechnologiesPoly Inc.

You are given a Singly Linked List of ‘N’ positive integers. Your task is to add a node having the value ‘VAL’ at position ‘POS’ in the linked list.

Note:
Assume that the Indexing for the linked list starts from 0.
EXAMPLE:
Input: ‘N’ = 5, 'LIST' = [1, 1, 2, 3, 4, -1], ‘VAL’ = 2, ‘POS’ = 1.

Output: 1 -> 2 -> 1 -> 2 -> 3 -> 4 

Here in the given list we can see that the node having value 2 is inserted at position 1.

That was easy to add node.
