Shar N. - "standard answer for this."See full answer

Mourya C. - "I try to solve this initially using quick select where will take a pivot element and position the remaining elements and check if the current index is answer or not and continue the same but it requires o(n*n), but interviewee is expecting the best from me, so at the end i tried solving using heaps where will check the difference between k and n-k to use min or max heap after that we will heap the array, and will keep popping the element k-1 and return the peek one which leads to answer."See full answer

Susmita S. - "Function that transforms each elements in a collection and returns new collection with transformed elements"See full answer

Shivam P. - " First, sort the array in ascending order. This ensures that we can easily check the triangle inequality condition. Use a loop to iterate through the array. For each triplet of consecutive elements, check if they satisfy the triangle inequality condition a+b>ca+b>c. As soon as you find a valid tuple, return it. If no valid tuple is found, return null. This approach is efficient with a time complexity of O(nlog⁡n)O(nlogn) due to the sorting step, followed by a linear scan of the array"See full answer

Gopal D. - "(Like a Rummy Game) There are 3 colors of tiles. Each tile has a number 1-9 on it. So the 27-tile set makes a deck. There are 4 decks. (Total = 108 tiles) Tile Colors = {Red, Black, Green} The tiles could be grouped together in patterns Types of patterns : The three tiles are identical (R2, R2, R2) The three tiles are of same color and sequential (R2, R3, R4). Sequence cannot be overlapping (R8, R9, R1 is not a pattern) Help : Tile Notations - R2 denotes Red tile having num 2 A player"See full answer
