To determine whether two people have kinship, all data structures need their own definition

Given an integer n (say somewhere between 100 and 1000), you want to generate a random binary tree having exactly n nodes. You are only interested in the structure of the tree. Each structurally unique tree should ideally have the same chance of being generated.

Given a binary matrix, find if there is a path from the upper left corner to the lower right corner, meet the conditions each time the value of the cell must be different.
Follow up if there is a path with the same number of 0 and 1?

Given k numbers as strings. The numbers may be very large (may not fit in long long int), the task is to find sum of these k numbers.
Example
S1 = “100”
S2 = “10”
S3 = “1”
Return “111”
public string addNumbers(String[] nums){
}

There is a process sequence that contains the start and end of each process. There is a query sequence asking how many processes are running at a certain point in time. Please return the query result of the query sequence.


Example
Given logs = [[1, 1234], [2, 1234]], queries = [2], return [2].

Explanation:
There are 2 processes running at time 2.
Given logs = [[1, 1234], [2, 1234]], queries = [1, 1235], return [1, 0].

Explanation:
There is a process running at time 1, and 0 processes running at time 1235.

Given:
R number of Red Cards
B number of Black cards
K

Cards needs to be placed in a circle. Start from a position and for
every K moves remove that card And
repeat the process until all the cards are eliminated.

Question: Position the cards such that the red cards are completely
eliminated before the blacks cards are selected for elimination.

Given a BST convert it into new Data Structure that satisfies following conditions:
1. every leaf node's left ptr point to its parent and right ptr points to the next leaf
2. every non leaf node's left ptr points to its parent and right ptr is NULL
3. return the head and print the new DS

example: 
	 7 
	/ \ 
	5  9 
   / \  \ 
  4   6  10 

output: 

head->4->5->7 
| 
->6->5->7 
| 
->10->9-7

with optimal time and space complexity

input: "kitten%20pic.jpg"
output: "kitten pic.jpg"

%20 -> ' '
%3A -> '?'
%3D -> ':'

void Decode(char[] str)

Given a string T of length n, partition it in n' "phrases" (p1, p2, ..., pn'),

such that
pi = pj + c, for some j<i, where + is string concatenation and c is a character

p0 = ''
p1 = pj + c where j < 1


T = p1 + p2 + ... + pn'

For example:
T = aababcabcd = a + ab + abc + abcd
p1 p2 p3 p4

Print a binary tree in vertical order using singly linked list...

There are three threads and we want them to run
one after the other. How can we do that?

In a grid, you are given a position, and every location has some value.
find the shortest length so that you can touch to any boundary of the grid.

You are given a graph and an algorithm that can find the shortest
path between any two nodes
Now you have to find the second shortest path between same two nodes.

Find product of distinct prime
factor of all numbers .
Ex
10
12
7
prime factor of 10 = 2*5
prime factor of 12 = 2*2*3
prime factor of 7 = 7

SO distinct prime factor is 2*5*3*7 = 210

encode binary in bytes is to give a matrix of size M * N,
This matrix is encoded in bytes as a 4 * 4 bool matrix
[0 0 0 0
1 0 0 1
0 0 0 0
0 0 0 1]
Will be encoded as a byte array [9, 1].
Then write a function set_one (vector <byte> arr, int M, int N, int start_row, int start_col, int end_row, int end_col);
Set all of 0 from (start_row, start_col) to (end_row, end_col) to 1
for example
start_row = 1
start_col = 2
end_row = 2
end_col = 0,
Just that 4 * 4matrix will become
[0 0 0 0
1 0 1 1
1 0 0 0
0 0 0 1]

The byte array after encode should be rewritten as [11, 129].

find out all of the state machine will guaranteed to come to safe state
ex
A -> [B, C, D, E]
B -> [A]
C -> [D, E]
D -> [E].
E -> [safe state]
Output [C, D, E] because once these states will eventually go to safe state

Aisles contain products. Product is only going to be in one Aisle.

Product{

AisleID: string

ProductID: string

Price: float

}

Given Array<Product>, find the N highest price combinations. Combination is 1 product from each aisle. You can choose only one instance of each product.

So if you had two aisles

1: {$5,$4,$2}

and

2: {$6,$1)

And they asked for the 2 highest combos you would give $6,$5 and $6,$4

Write a simple RegEx parser function that handles only the
operators * (0 or more) and + (1 or more), and returns true if
the provided string is a match. Signature:
boolean isMatch(String regex, String input).
Example: regex = a*b+ce, input = bce, return true
Example: regex = a*b+ce, input = ace, return false
Example: regex = a*b+ce, input = abcee, return false

Given a tree and a number N,
construct another tree such that each node of the tree has either 0 or
N elements,except for one node which has between 0 to N elements.
Only other constraint is
that ancestry is preserved in the new tree.

input is an int [] number is the car number parked in the parking lot, 0 for empty spaces
Output is also an int [] requires a method to convert the input into target array.
Each car can only be exchanged with a 0.

Given a string s1, we may represent it as a binary tree by partitioning it to two non-empty substrings recursively.

Below is one possible representation of s1 = "great":

    great
   /    \
  gr    eat
 / \    /  \
g   r  e   at
           / \
          a   t
To scramble the string, we may choose any non-leaf node and swap its two children.

For example, if we choose the node "gr" and swap its two children, it produces a scrambled string "rgeat".

    rgeat
   /    \
  rg    eat
 / \    /  \
r   g  e   at
           / \
          a   t
We say that "rgeat" is a scrambled string of "great".

Similarly, if we continue to swap the children of nodes "eat" and "at", it produces a scrambled string "rgtae".

    rgtae
   /    \
  rg    tae
 / \    /  \
r   g  ta  e
       / \
      t   a
We say that "rgtae" is a scrambled string of "great".

give a string s, print all the scrambled string of it

class Solution {
    public List<String> ScrambleString(String s) {
        
    }
}

The problem is to count all the possible paths from any points to bottom right of a mXn matrix with the constraints that from each cell you can either move only to right or down

We have two sequences A and B consisting of integers, both of length N, and you would like them to be (strictly) increasing, i.e. for each K (0 ≤ K < N − 1), A[K] < A[K + 1] and B[K] < B[K + 1]. Thus, you need to modify the sequences, but the only manipulation you can perform is to swap an arbitrary element in sequence A with the corresponding element in sequence B. That is, both elements to be exchanged must occupy the same index position within each sequence.

For example, given A = [5, 3, 7, 7, 10] and B = [1, 6, 6, 9, 9], you can swap elements at positions 1 and 3, obtaining A = [5, 6, 7, 9, 10], B = [1, 3, 6, 7, 9].

Your goal is make both sequences increasing, using the smallest number of swaps.

Write a function:

public int minswaps(int[] A, int[] B);

that, given two zero-indexed arrays A, B of length N, containing integers, returns the minimum number of swapping operations required to make the given arrays increasing. If it is impossible to achieve the goal, return −1.

For example, given:

A[0] = 5 B[0] = 1
A[1] = 3 B[1] = 6
A[2] = 7 B[2] = 6
A[3] = 7 B[3] = 9
A[4] = 10 B[4] = 9
your function should return 2, as explained above.

Given:

A[0] = 5 B[0] = 2
A[1] = -3 B[1] = 6
A[2] = 6 B[2] = -5
A[3] = 4 B[3] = 1
A[4] = 8 B[4] = 0
your function should return −1, since you cannot perform operations that would make the sequences become increasing.

Given:

A[0] = 1 B[0] = -2
A[1] = 5 B[1] = 0
A[2] = 6 B[2] = 2
your function should return 0, since the sequences are already increasing.

Assume that:

N is an integer within the range [2..100,000];
each element of arrays A, B is an integer within the range [−1,000,000,000..1,000,000,000];
A and B have equal lengths.

Find the final states of a n-nary tree
each node has three states, 0,1,2.
Require that if all child nodes are 2,
The parent node is also 2.

All child nodes are 0, the parent node is 0, and the rest are all 1s.

Given two functions, start (id, start_time), stop (id, time),
Respectively, to the id assignment start and end time, gave a bunch of such operations (to ensure that the operation start small id first appeared,
And each id last have start_time and stop_time), press the start order to print the corresponding id, start_time, stop_time,
Requirements of space complexity as small as possible,
e.g., start (1, 1), start (2, 2), stop (2, 3), start (3, 4), stop
The print order is (1,1,6), (2,3,2), (3,4,5) # (id, start_time, end_time).
