Hackerrank Coding Questions with Solutions

Question 1 – Maximum Passengers

Problem Statement -: A taxi can take multiple passengers to the railway station at the same time.On the way back to the starting point,the taxi driver may pick up additional passengers for his next trip to the airport.A map of passenger location has been created,represented as a square matrix.

The Matrix is filled with cells,and each cell will have an initial value as follows:

A value greater than or equal to zero represents a path.
A value equal to 1 represents a passenger.
A value equal to -1 represents an obstruction.

The rules of motion of taxi are as follows:

The Taxi driver starts at (0,0) and the railway station is at (n-1,n-1).Movement towards the railway station is right or down,through valid path cells.
After reaching (n-1,n-1) the taxi driver travels back to (0,0) by travelling left or up through valid path cells.
When passing through a path cell containing a passenger,the passenger is picked up.once the rider is picked up the cell becomes an empty path cell.
If there is no valid path between (0,0) and (n-1,n-1),then no passenger can be picked.
The goal is to collect as many passengers as possible so that the driver can maximize his earnings.

For example consider the following grid,

0 1

-1 0

Start at top left corner.Move right one collecting a passenger. Move down one to the destination.Cell (1,0) is blocked,So the return path is the reverse of the path to the airport.All Paths have been explored and one passenger is collected.

Returns:

Int : maximum number of passengers that can be collected.

Sample Input 0

4 -> size n = 4

4 -> size m = 4

0 0 0 1 -> mat

1 0 0 0

0 0 0 0

Output 0

Explanation 0

The driver can contain a maximum of 2 passengers by taking the following path (0,0) → (0,1) → (0,2) → (0,3) → (1,3) → (2,3) → (3,3) → (3,2) → (3,1) → (3,0) → (2,0) → (1,0) → (0,0)

Sample Input 1

STD IN Function

———— ————-

3 → size n=3

Question 2 – Minimum streets lights

Problem Statement -: Street Lights are installed at every position along a 1-D road of length n. Locations[] (an array) represents the coverage limit of these lights. The ith light has a coverage limit of locations[i] that can range from the position max((i – locations[i]), 1) to min((i + locations[i]), n ) (Closed intervals). Initially all the lights are switched off. Find the minimum number of fountains that must be switched on to cover the road.

Example

n = 3

locations[] = {0, 2, 13}then

For position 1: locations[1] = 0, max((1 – 0),

1) to mini (1+0), 3) gives range = 1 to 1

For position 2: locations[2] = 2, max((2-2),

1) to min( (2+2), 3) gives range = 1 to 3

For position 3: locations[3] = 1, max( (3-1),

1) to min( (3+1), 3) gives range = 2 to 3

For the entire length of this road to be covered, only the light at position 2 needs to be activated.

Returns:

int : the minimum number of street lights that must be activated

Constraints :

1<_n<_ 10^5
O<_locations[i] <_ mini (n,100) (where 1 <_1<_10^5)

Question 3 – Maximize Earnings

Problem Statement -: A company has a list of jobs to perform. Each job has a start time, end time and profit value. The manager has asked his employee Anirudh to pick jobs of his choice. Anirudh being greedy wants to select jobs for him in such a way that would maximize his earnings.

Given a list of jobs how many jobs and total earning are left for other employees once Anirudh

Picks jobs of his choice.

Note: Anirudh can perform only one job at a time.

Input format:

Each Job has 3 pieces of info – Start Time,End Time and Profit

The first line contains the number of Jobs for the day. Say ‘n’. So there will be ‘3n lines following as each job has 3 lines.

Each of the next ‘3n’ lines contains jobs in the following format:

- start_time
- end-time
- Profit

start-time and end-time are in HHMM 24HRS format i.e. 9am is 0900 and 9PM is 2100

Constraints

The number of jobs in the day is less than 10000 i.e. 0<_n<_10000
Start-time is always less than end time.

Output format :-

Program should return an array of 2 integers where 1st one is number of jobs left and earnings of other employees.

Sample Input 1 :

0900

1030

100

1000

1200

500

1100

1200

300

Sample Output 1:

400

Sample Explanation 1

Anirudh chooses 1000-1200 jobs. His earnings is 500. The 1st and 3rd jobs i.e. 0900-1030 and 1100-1200 respectively overlap with the 2nd jobs. But profit earned from them will be 400 only. Hence Anirudh chooses 2nd one. Remaining 2 Jobs & 400 cash for other employees.

Sample Input 2:

0805

0830

100

0835

0900

100

0905

0930

100

0935

1000

100

1005

1030

100

Sample output 2:

Sample Explanation 2:

Anirudh can work on all appointments as there are none overlapping. Hence 0 appointments and 0 earnings for other employees.

Question 4 : Network Stream

Problem Statement – A stream of n data packets arrives at a server. This server can only process packets that are exactly 2^n units long for some non-negative integer value of n (0<=n).

All packets are repackaged in order to the 1 largest possible value of 2^n units. The remaining portion of the packet is added to the next arriving packet before it is repackaged. Find the size of the largest repackaged packet in the given stream.

Example :

arriving Packets = [12, 25, 10, 7, 8]
The first packet has 12 units. The maximum value of 2^n that can be made has 2^n = 2^3 = 8 units because the next size up is 2^n = 2^4 = 16 (16 is greater than 12).
12 – 8 = 4 units are added to the next packet. There are 4 + 25 = 29 units to repackage, 2^n = 2^4 = 16 is the new size leaving 9 units (29-16 = 9)
Next packet is 9 + 10 = 29 unists & the maximum units(in 2^n) is 16 leaving 3 units.
3 + 7 = 10 , the max units is 8 Leaving 2 units, and so on.
The maximum repackaged size is 16 units.

Returns:

Long : the size of the largest packet that is streamed

Constraints :

1<=n<=10^5
1<=arriving Packets[i] size<=10^9

Question 6 – Disk Space Analysis

Problem Statement -: You are given an array, You have to choose a contiguous subarray of length ‘k’, and find the minimum of that segment, return the maximum of those minimums.

Sample input 0

1 → Length of segment x =1

5 → size of space n = 5

1 → space = [ 1,2,3,1,2]

Sample output

Explanation

The subarrays of size x = 1 are [1],[2],[3],[1], and [2],Because each subarray only contains 1 element, each value is minimal with respect to the subarray it is in. The maximum of these values is 3. Therefore, the answer is 3

Question 7 : Guess the word

Problem Statement – Kochouseph Chittilappilly went to Dhruv Zplanet , a gaming space, with his friends and played a game called “Guess the Word”.
Rules of games are –

Computer displays some strings on the screen and the player should pick one string / word if this word matches with the random word that the computer picks then the player is declared as Winner.
Kochouseph Chittilappilly’s friends played the game and no one won the game. This is Kochouseph Chittilappilly’s turn to play and he decided to must win the game.
What he observed from his friend’s game is that the computer is picking up the string whose length is odd and also that should be maximum. Due to system failure computers sometimes cannot generate odd length words. In such cases you will lose the game anyways and it displays “better luck next time”. He needs your help. Check below cases for better understand

Sample input :
5 → number of strings
Hello Good morning Welcome you
Sample output :
morning

Explanation:

Hello → 5
Good → 4
Morning → 7
Welcome → 7
You → 3

First word that is picked by computer is morning

Sample input 2 :
3
Go to hell

Sample output 2:
Better luck next time

Explanation:
Here no word with odd length so computer confuses and gives better luck next time

Question 12 : Vampire Battle

Problem Statement – Stephan is a vampire. And he is fighting with his brother Damon. Vampires get energy from human bloods, so they need to feed on human blood, killing the human beings. Stephan is also less inhuman, so he will like to take less life in his hand. Now all the people’s blood has some power, which increases the powers of the Vampire. Stephan just needs to be more powerful than Damon, killing the least human possible. Tell the total power Steohan will have after drinking the bloods before the battle.

Note that: Damon is a beast, so no human being will be left after Damon drinks everyone’s blood. But Stephan always comes early in the town.

Input Format:

First line with the number of people in the town, n.

Second line with a string with n characters, denoting the one digit power in every blood.

Output Format:

Total minimum power Stephan will gather before the battle.

Question 18 : Device Name System

Problem Statement – Rocky is a software engineer and he is creating his own operating system called “myFirst os”. myFirst os is a GUI (Graphical user interface) based operating system where everything is stored in files and folders. He is facing issues on creating unique folder names for the operating system . Help rocky to create the unique folder name for it’s os.If folder name already exists in the system and integer number is added at the name to make it unique. The integer added starts with 1 and is incremented by 1 for each new request of an existing folder name. Given a list of folder names , process all requests and return an array of corresponding folder names.

Example :

n=5
foldername= [‘home’ , ‘myfirst’ ,’downloads’, ‘myfirst’, ‘myfirst’]
foldername[0]= ‘home’ is unique.
foldername[1]= ‘myfirst’ is unique.
foldername [2]=’downloads’ is unique.
foldername[3]=’myfirst’ already exists in our system. So Add1 at the end of the folder name i.e foldername[3]=”myfirst1″
foldername[4]=’myfirst’ also already exists in our system.So add 2 at the end of the folder name i.e. foldername[4]=”myfirst2″.

folderNameSystem function has the following parameters

string foldername[n]: an array of folder name string in the order requested

Returns:

String[n]: an array of strings usernames in the order assigned

Constraints :

1<=n<=10^4
1<=length of foldername[i]<20
foldername[i] contains only lowercase english letter in the range ascii[a-z]

Input Format:

The first line contains an integer n , denoting the size of the array usernames
Each line i of the n subsequent lines (where i<=0<=n) contains a string usernames[i] representing a username request in the order received.

Sample case :

home

download

first

Sample Output :

home

download

first

first1

Explanation :

foldername[0] = ‘home’ is unique
foldername[1]=’download’ is unique
foldername[2]= ‘first’ is unique
foldername[3]=’first’ is already existing . so add 1 to it and it become first1
