Note :
The width of each bar is the same and is equal to 1.
Example:
Input: ‘n’ = 6, ‘arr’ = [3, 0, 0, 2, 0, 4].

You are given a Singly Linked List of integers. Return true if it has a cycle, else return false.


A cycle occurs when a node's next points back to a previous node in the list.

SlicePayPalSAP Labs

Given two strings, 'S' and 'T' with lengths 'M' and 'N', find the length of the 'Longest Common Subsequence'.

For a string 'str'(per se) of length K, the subsequences are the strings containing characters in the same relative order as they are present in 'str,' but not necessarily contiguous. Subsequences contain all the strings of length varying from 0 to K.

Example :
Subsequences of string "abc" are:  ""(empty string), a, b, c, ab, bc, ac, abc.

2. Reverse String

Asked in companies
IBMMcAfeeAdobe

You are given a string ‘S’. You are also given ‘M’ integers in an array ‘A’. You perform ‘M’ operations on this string. The operations are given in an array ‘A’ of size ‘M’.

You perform the operations in the order they appear in the array ‘A’. In the ‘i’th operation, you reverse the substring of ‘S’ from the position ‘A[i]’ to ‘len(S)’ - ‘A[i]’ - 1 (0 based).

Your task is to find the string after performing all the operations.

Example :
‘S’ = “aabcd”, ‘M’ = 2, ‘A’ = [0, 1]
After 1st operation i.e, reversing from [0, 4], ‘S’ = “dcbaa”.
After 2nd operation i.e, reversing from [1, 3], ‘S’ = “dabca”.
Hence, the answer is “dabca”.
