Given a rectangle with width 'W' and height 'H', you have to fit a string 'S' in it with maximum possible font size
The font size ranges from 1 to 30
You are given two APIs getCharacterWidth(char c , int font_size) and getCharacterHeight(int font_size)
getCharacterWidth(char c , int font_size): returns the width of a character for a particular font size
getCharacterHeight(int font_size): returns the height of characters for a particular font size

Its farewell day, there are total N students, every student has bought a gift to give. He/She will give this gift to some other student. After gifting process is over, you are given an array, representing number of gift student receive i.e. ith number denoting number of gift he/she got. Your task is to find, whether given gift count array is valid or not. If it is valid print any of possible way of gifting that lead given array.

PS: Student can't gift to himself. Student has exactly one gift with himself.

Input: First line will have one integer M, denoting number of students. Next line wil have N spaced integers denoting number of gift student gets.

Ouput: -1, if given gift received array is not valid else print N spaced integers denoting ith gifted to jth.

Sample Input 1:
3
1 1 1

Sample Output 1:
2 3 1

You have given a string which consists of four characters {a,c,t,g}, find minimum length of unique substring which occurs only once.

Eg:

Input :
#1 aacc
#2 actg

Output:

#2 1 4

Explain:

aacc -> {aa, ac, cc} are the smallest unique string with single occurrence.

C program for the given two array as point of x and y
int x[] = { 2,3,2,4,2};
int y[] = {2, 2, 6,5,8}; count the pair
maximum area coverd in x y plane
Ouput:3
From the above input there are five coordinates possible (2,2)(3,2)(2,6()(4,5)and (2,8) in which (2,2)(2,6)(2,8)that is three coodinaters covers the maximum area in x y plane
Input: x[] ={1,2,3}

How to divide a circular array into k group of contiguous element such that difference between maximum sum and minimum sum is minimum. Each group have contiguous element of array. For e.g If the array is as follow. [6 13 10 2] and k=2 then o/p should be 18(6+10+2)-13=5. As array is circular 6,10,2 are contiguous element of array.

For e.g If the array is as follow. [6 13 2 10] and k=2 then o/p should be 16(6+10)-15(13+2)=1. As array is circular 6,10 are contiguous element of array.

For e.g If the array is as follow. [100 92 133 201 34 34 34 94 108] and k=4 then group as follow 208(108,100), 225(92,133), (201), 196(34,34,34,94) so 225-196=29

l1=[1,2,3,4]
l2=[1,3,6,7,null,null,null,null]
output: l2=[1,1,2,3,3,4,6,7]

k=2, l=[1,2,3,4,5,6]
output: l=[5,6,1,2,3,4]

You have two sorted arrays, where each element is an interval. Now, merge the two array, overlapping intervals can be merged as a single one.

I/P :
List 1 [1,2] , [3,9]
List 2 [4,5], [8, 10], [11,12]

O/P [1,2], [3,10], [11,12]

I/P [8, 3, 2, [5, 6, [9]], 6]

O/P 8+3+2+2*(5+6+3*(9))+6 => 95

You are given an array A of size N and Q queries. For each query, you are given two indices of the array L and R. The subarray generated from L to R is reversed. Your task is to determine the maximum sum of the subarrays.

Note: After each query is solved, the array comes to its initial states.

Input format

First line: Two space-separated integers N and Q
Next line: N space-separated integers denoting the array elements.
Next
Q lines: Two space-separated integers in every line denoting the values of Li and Ri
Output format

For each query, print the required answer in a new line.

Explain the difference between ORM and JDBC.
Provide some examples and when to use one over the other.

given two strings s1 and s2 we have to convert s1 into palindrome such that s1 contain s2 as a substring. in a minimum number of operation. wherein a single operation we can replace any word of s1 with any character.
constraint : |s1| <= 1000
|s2| <= |s1|
ex: s1 = "abaa" , s2 = "bb"
output : 1

Given an array, coin of size n, coin[i] denotes the no. of coins on the position i. Can move any number of coins from the position i to (i+1) or (i-1). What is the minimum no. of moves required to redistribute the coins, so that each position i has at least 1 coin ?
Note: Summation of total coins on the array is exactly n.

Morse code is a method of transmitting text information as series of long and short sounds or visual signals. Pauses are used during transmission to group letters and words. The common convention for writing morse code is to use dots (.) and dashes (-) for the short and long signals however without including pauses (e.g. as spaces) morse code quickly becomes ambiguous. For example the code -....--.... has 13 valid translations (bans, bates, bath, begs, digs, etc)
Write a function getAllEnglishTranslations which takes a morse code without any pauses and returns all valid translations.
std::vector<std::string> getAllEnglishTranslations(std::string morseCode)

Output must be sorted in ascending alphabetical order.
Assume there are only 7 alphabets and below are their mappings
M = dash-dash (--)
C = dash-dot-dash-dot (-.-.)
O = dash-dash-dash (---)
D = dash-dot-dot (-..)
I = dot-dot (..)
N = dash-dot (-.)
G = dash-dash-dot (--.)
Assume input code is a valid morse code
