Round 2: DS/Algo round
Time – 60 minutes ( coding + discussion )
- Question 1 – In this round, the question was based on a Sliding Window. Given two strings, a string, and a pattern, the task is to find the smallest substring in the string containing all characters of the pattern. Link
- Question 2 – The second question was based on recursion/DP/loops. Given a string str, the task is to find the longest substring which is a palindrome.
Both the problems were a little implementation-heavy (at least to me, in the interview). Fortunately was able to code the first problem but due to time constraints couldn’t code the second problem.
The tip is to communicate every step to the interviewer and this would save you if in any case, you are not able to code the running solution.
Difficulty level – Medium/Hard
