String Rotation
Input: rhdt:246, ghftd:1246

Output: trhd, ftdgh

Explanation:
Here, every string (rhdt : 1246) is associated with a number, separated by semicolon, if sum of
square of digit is even the rotate the string right by 1 position. If square of digit is odd the rotate
the string left by 2 position.

For first case:


2*2+4*4+6*6=84 which is even so rotate string, rotate right by 1 so ”rhdt” will be “trhd”

For second case:


1*1+2*2+4*4+6*6=85 which is odd so rotate string left by 2 so “ghftd” will be “ftdgh”

2. Matrix with Highest Sum
Take string input then form all possible mXm square matrix, and print the matrix with
maximum sum.
In case, two or more square matrix has maximum sum then print largest matrix followed by next
largest matrix and so on.
In case, more than one matrix has same size print in order of their occurrence.

INPUT: 6, 3, 6, 20, 3, 6,-15, 3, 3

OUTPUT:
636
20 3 6
-15 3 3

63
6 20

6 20
36

Explanation:-
636
20 3 6 -> its sum is 35 and is order 3*3,
-15 3 3

63
6 20 -> its sum is 35 and is order 2*2,

6 20
3 6 -> its sum is 35 and is order 2*2,
import math

instr=list(map(int, input().split(",")))

m=2

result={}

k=int(math.sqrt(len(instr)))

s1=0
s1_a=[]

3. Longest Subarray
Input = {3, 5, 8, 2, 19, 12, 7, 11}

One have to find the longest subarray such that its element satisfies the following condition:
x[i]=x[i‐ 1]+x[i-2]
If more than one subarray of is found of maximum length one has to print the array which starts
with the minimum element and if they are also same then the array with minimum second eleme
nt and so on.
If no subarray is found one has to print ‐1.

Output = {2, 5, 7, 12, 19}


inList = list(map(int, input().split(',')))

sublist = []
L=0
lsa = []

for i in range(len(inList)):
count = 0
l=i
j=0
c=0
while(j<len(inList)):
if(l==j or inList[i]>inList[j]):
j=j+1
else:
if(count==0):
temp = inList[l] + inList[j]
else:
temp = sublist[-1][-1] + sublist[-1][-2]
if(temp<=max(inList) and temp in inList):
count+=1
if(count == 1):
sublist.append([])
sublist[-1].append(inList[i])
sublist[-1].append(inList[j])
sublist[-1].append(temp)
elif(count>1):
sublist[-1].append(temp)
else:
if((len(sublist[-1]))>L):
if(len(lsa)):
lsa.pop()
lsa.append(sublist[-1])
L = len(sublist[-1])
elif((len(sublist[-1]))==L):
if(sublist[-1] not in lsa):
lsa.append(sublist[-1])
L = len(sublist[-1])
count=0
l=i
j+=1

print(min(lsa))

4. Matrix with same consecutive number


Given an inmatrix mxn matrix(m,n>3).You have to perform the following operations:
i) Find the same consecutive numbers in the matrix either vertically, horizontally or diagonally
such that atleast four consecutive nos. are there.
ii) If there are more than one such set of numbers then print an integer outnum which is the
minimum of such consecutive nos.
iii) If no such no. exists print -1

Input: First line contains an integer m.


Second m lines have n space separated integers (note: n was not given)

6. Special Character Sum – Even/Odd


1. If Even Special Character find in inStr,
outStr contains digits from inStr starting
from Even then Odd then even-odd so on.

2. If Odd Special Character find in inStr,


outStr contains digits from inStr starting
from Odd then Even then odd-even so on.

3. If there any numbers (additional) left


append them at last
Case 1 :
inStr = t9@a42g&516
outStr = 492561

Case 2 :
inStr = 5u6@n25g7#@
outStr = 56527
inStr = input()
special = '!@#$&'
digit = '1234567890'
x=0

for i in inStr:
if(i in special):
x+=1
elif(i in digit):
if(int(i)%2==0):
even.append(i)
else:
odd.append(i)

if(len(even)<=len(odd)):
N = len(even)
flag=1
elif(len(even)>=len(odd)):
N = len(odd)
flag=2

if(x%2 == 0):
for j in range(N):
out+=even[j]
out+=odd[j]
if(flag == 1):
y = j+1
while(y<len(odd)):
out+=odd[y]
y += 1
if(flag == 2):

y += 1

print(out)

7. String contains 5 and 8


Input:
A string of comma separated numbers,
the numbers 5 and 8 are present in the
List. (8 always comes after 5)

Problem:
Num1: Add all numbers which do not lie
between 5 and 8 (excluding 5,8)
Num2: Number formed by concatenating
all numbers from 5 to 8 (Including 5,8)
Output: Num1 + Num2

Case 1:
Input = 3,2,6,5,1,4,8,9
Output = 5168

(Num1 = 3+2+6+9 = 20
Num2 = '5'+'1'+'4'+'8' = 5148
Output = 5148 + 20 = 5168)

Case 2:
Input = 3,1,5,8
Output = 62
inList = input().split(',')

five = inList.index('5')
eight = inList.index('8')
num1 = 0
num2 = ''

for i in range(len(inList)):
if(i<five):
num1 += int(inList[i])
if(i>five and i>eight):
num1 += int(inList[i])

elif(i>=five and i<=eight):


num2 += inList[i]

out = int(num1)+int(num2)

print(out)

8. Parenthesis Problem
A non empty string instr containing only parenthesis (,),{,},[,]. It returns outstr based on
following-
● instr is properly nested and return 0 (zero).
● instr not properly nested, returns position of element in instr.
● position starts from 1.

Test cases:
input output
{([])}[] 0
([)()] 3
[[()] 6 (n+1 for lat element i.e. 5+1 =6)
openList = ['[','{','(']
closeList = [']','}',')']

def balance(myStr):
stack= []
c=0
for i in myStr:
c+=1
if i in openList:
stack.append(i)
elif i in closeList:
pos = closeList.index(i)
if ((len(stack) > 0) and (openList[pos] == stack[len(stack)-1])):
stack.pop()
else:
return c
if (len(stack) == 0):
return 0
else:
n = len(myStr)
return n+1

instr = input()

print(balance(instr))

9. Longest Substring which is unique


A string is given, we have to find the longet substring which is unique(that has no repetation)
and has a minimum size of 3. If more than one substring is found with max length then we have
to print the one which appeared first in the string.If no substring is present which matches the
condition then we have to print ‐1.

input ‐ "A@bcd1abx"
output ‐ "A@bcd1"

Note:
" A@bcd1a" is not a unique substring as it contains "A" and "a" and substring "bcd1a"
does not appear first.

10. Longest Prefix which is also suffix


A non-empty string instr containing only alphabets.
Print length of longest prefix in instr which is same as suffix. prefix and suffix should not overlap
in instr.
Print -1 if no prefix exists which is also the suffix without overlap.
Do case sensitive comparison wherever necessary.
position starts from 1.

Test cases:
Input output
xxAbcxxAbcxx 2
Racecar -1

11. Reverse String keeping special character at same place


Special string reverse
Input Format: b@rd
Output Format: d@rb
Explanation:
We should reverse the alphabets of the string by keeping the special characters in the
same position

12. OTP Generation


Input Format:
13456
Output Format:
1925
Explanation:
Take the string of numbers and generate a four digit OTP such that
1. If the number is odd square it.
2. If the number is even ignore it.

13. Longest substring with common letter from 2 string


S1="staobplk"
S2="tsodpq"
1. Identify common letters in both strings
2. Form all possible substrings possible with those letters
--> substrings should be formed in such a way that...
--->Common letters should be taken first occurrence of string 2,
---->substring should be formed by sequences common letters
A. Out of all possible substrings Print longest substring
B. If >1 substring has same highest length then print the substring with letters first occurred in
str2 and if no common letters in 2 strings print "X" Capital X

S1="staobplk"
S2="tsodpq"

Out = ‘top’

14. Pronic Number


Input1: 93012630
Output2: 2,6,12,30,930
We should divide the total number into substrings and we should verify each num is pronic num
or not if pronic we should print that num
Pronic: means it is a multiple of two consecutive integers
Ex: 6->2*3 it’s a pronic
12->3*4 it’s a pronic
Input2: 12665042
Output2: 2,6,12,42,650
