Lakshman B. - "As we can pass info to only one child at a time, I told that from any given node, we have to pass the info to that child(of this node) which has the largest subtree rooted at it. To calculate the subtree sizes, I used DFS. And then to calculate the minimum time to pass info to all the nodes, I used BFS picking the largest subtree child first at every node. I couldn't write the complete code in the given time and also made a mistake in telling the overall time complexity of my approach. I think t"See full answer

Exponent - "This is a Measure Success question with a slight twist. The twist here is we need to consider a hypothetical product rather that one already built. This changes our formula slightly - specifically we may not be able to apply a UX flow to drive analysis since we're unsure of the implementation. Instead, we'll look at core behaviors that are indicative of success. Here's the modified formula: Ask clarifying questions State the goal of the feature **Apply a UX flow to drive a"See full answer
