SDE - 1

You're given an alphabetical string ‘S’.

Determine whether it is palindrome or not. A palindrome is a string that is equal to itself upon reversing it.

For example:

‘S’ = racecar
The reverse of ‘S’ is: racecar
Since ‘S’ is equal to its reverse. So ‘S’ is a palindrome.
Hence output will be 1.

You're given a string 'S' consisting of "{", "}", "(", ")", "[" and "]" .

Return true if the given string 'S' is balanced, else return false.

For example:

'S' = "{}()".

There is always an opening brace before a closing brace i.e. '{' before '}', '(' before ').
So the 'S' is Balanced.

You are given an integer array 'ARR' of size 'N' and an integer 'S'. Your task is to return the list of all pairs of elements such that each sum of elements of each pair equals 'S'.

Note:

Each pair should be sorted i.e the first value should be less than or equals to the second value. 

Return the list of pairs sorted in non-decreasing order of their first value. In case if two pairs have the same first value, the pair with a smaller second value should come first.

You have 9 balls, equally big, equally heavy - except for one, which is a little heavier.

How would you identify the heavier ball if you could use a pair of balance scales only twice?
