AnswersLots of questions from previous experience. 80% of interview revolved around my past experience. One lady asked me three most challenging technical issues. I answered one in depth, she interrupted in between to move on to next one, but i didn't complete that answer yet. After I completed the answer, she moved on to next question!

AnswerThe director have me a matrix on paper and asked to generate the matrix. Very simple, once found out the answer - 5x5 from number 1-25, only diagonals were changed. Couldn't answer the question, probably that cost the interview. He asked another question to build a matrix from 1 to 100 without repeating any number. I told him to use recursion, he didn't agree.

01234
here, the bottom string represents the actual numbers(01234), the upper string represents their counts(the same also represents numbers)
so, there are two 0's, one 1, two 0's, zero '3', zero '4'. Find a sequence of length '9' which satisfy this property.| Report Duplicate | Flag | PURGE

AnswersI attended MS interview loop this week and I was asked the below question.
- c# September 04, 2010
Given a IP address as input, validate the ip address.
ValidateIp(string inpIP)
My answer-I validated the characters in the string and then implemented atoi function on each substring and verified for its value in the range of 0-255, I was also asked to assume that an IP can start with 0.
PS: I am not selected:(, not sure if the interviewer knew some other way and expecting me to say the same:)...| Report Duplicate | Flag | PURGE

AnswersHi All,
- c# September 04, 2010
I attended MS interview loop this week, I was unable to get through, pissed off after seeing the beautifully madeup regret mail from the staffing consultant, I wanted to share a question and my answer...Beware of the answer as I am not selected:)
here it goes..
Given a text document as input with a set of strings, assume '\n' is the delimiter, print to the console strings grouped by anagrams.
vinay
naviy
inavy
tes
set
...
My answer:
1. sort all the strings and compare...interviewer was not happy with the time complexity of sorting all strings.
2. create a hashtable where the hashcode is generated using the characters in the string..I got the hash of each string by doing an Exclusive OR of each charcater in the string although i had the dbt if the Ex-OR of non anagrams can be same, this is the only other solution that came to my mind.
Any efficient ways of solving this??| Report Duplicate | Flag | PURGE

I attended MS interview this week, I was unable to get through, but I wanted to share a question for which i failed to give a efficient implementation..any ideas here..
here it goes...
Implement a firewall
prototype:
bool firewall(string url, list<string> IncludedList, List<string> ExcludedList)
Return true if the url is in included list
Return false if the url is in excluded list.
In a ambiguous situation return true\false based on best match.
Included\Excluded Url can contain '*' ex *.com, *.test.com etc...
if input url is www.test.server.com
IncludedLIst contains *.com and if ExcludedList contains *.test.com
Bestmatch in included is .com less then Bestmatch in ExcludedList .test.com..In this case it has to return false..| Report Duplicate | Flag | PURGE

eg if num is given as 30, output array should contain {1,2,4,8,16}. It shouldn't contain 32 since 32 is more than the given number.
Another exp: if num is 300 then output will be {1,2,4,8,16,32,64,128,256}| Report Duplicate | Flag | PURGE
