    "As a postgraduate student of computer science, one of my weaknesses might be that I sometimes focus too much on theoretical concepts, which can lead to delays in practical implementation. I also find that while I’m strong in certain areas like algorithms and data structures, I need to spend more time refining my skills in newer technologies or languages that aren't part of the core curriculum. Additionally, balancing research, coursework, and any side projects can be challenging, occasionally le"

    "Clarifying my assumptions first, i.e. "Technical contributions are not just writing or reviewing code". Answer : My contributions to any program I lead as a TPM are as follows : Inputs towards design, architecture review, mapping requirements to the proposed design, reviewing the implementation strategy w.r.t scalable solution, Writing core user-centric test scenarios, Validating proposed design vs implementation estimates vs initial planning. etc... Example : Situation: We are a"

    "Binary search is commonly used for searching elements in a sorted array. Most searching algorithms take O(n) time, but binary search operates in O(log(n)) time complexity. function binarySearch(arr, target) { let first = 0; let last = arr.length - 1; // Adjusted to correctly represent the last index while (first target) { last = mid - 1; } "
