Intuit Coding Interview Questions

Yeshwanth D. - "Was this for an entry level engineer role?"See full answer

Alfred O. - "We can use dictionary to store cache items so that our read / write operations will be O(1). Each time we read or update an existing record, we have to ensure the item is moved to the back of the cache. This will allow us to evict the first item in the cache whenever the cache is full and we need to add new records also making our eviction O(1) Instead of normal dictionary, we will use ordered dictionary to store cache items. This will allow us to efficiently move items to back of the cache a"See full answer

Kishor J. - "we can use two pointer + set like maintain i,j and also insert jth character to set like while set size is equal to our window j-i+1 then maximize our answer and increase jth pointer till last index"See full answer

Kofi N. - "const mergeIntervals = (intervals) => { const compare = (a, b) => { if(a[0] b[0]) return 1 else if(a[0] === b[0]) { return a[1] - b[1] } } let current = [] const result = [] const sorted = intervals.sort(compare) for(let i = 0; i = b[0]) current[1] = b[1] els"See full answer

Ritaban M. - " Brute Force Two Pointer Solution: from typing import List def two_sum(nums, target): for i in range(len(nums)): for j in range(i+1, len(nums)): if nums[i]+nums[j]==target: return [i,j] return [] debug your code below print(two_sum([2, 7, 11, 15], 9)) `"See full answer

Aman G. - "Was given 90 minutes with an exhaustive set of requirements to be implemented as a full-stack coding exercise. It was supposed to have a UX, a server and a database to store and retrieve data. The IDE was supposed to be self-setup before the interview. The panel asked questions on top of the implementation around decision making from a technical perspective"See full answer
