 TCS Coding Questions

Question 1

Problem Statement:

A 10cm x 10cm x 10cm solid cube rests on the ground. It has a beetle on it, as well as some
sweet honey spots on the cube’s surface. The beetle begins at a point on the cube’s surface
and moves in a clockwise direction along the cube’s surface to the honey spots

If it goes from one point on the same face to another (say, X to Y), it goes in an arc of a circle
that subtends an angle of 60 degrees at the circle’s center
If it travels from one point to another on a different face, it takes the shortest path on the
cube’s surface, except that it never travels along its bottom.

The beetle is a Cartesian geometry student who knows the coordinates (x, y, z) of all the points
it needs to visit. Its coordinate origin is one of the cube’s corners on the ground, and the z-axis
points up. As a result, z=0 is the bottom surface (on which it does not crawl), and z=10 is the
top. The beetle keeps track of all distances traveled and rounded the distance to two decimal
places when it arrives at the following location so that the final distance is a sum of the
rounded distances from spot to spot.

Input:

The first line returns an integer N, the total number of points visited by the beetle (including
the starting point).

The second line contains 3N non-negative numbers, each with two decimal places. These are
to be interpreted as the x, y, and z coordinates of the points the beetle must visit in the given
order.

Output:

One line containing a number representing the total distance traveled by the beetle to two
decimal places. Even if the travel distance is an integer, the output should have two decimal
places.

Constraints:

None of the points visited by the beetle are on the bottom face (z=0) or on any of the cube’s
edges (the lines where two faces meet)

2<=N<=10

Example:

Input : 3

1 1 10 2 1 10 0 1 9

Output : 4.05

Explanation :

The beetle visits three different locations (N=3). The beetle begins on the cube's top face
(z=10) at point (1,1,10) and moves to another point on the same face (2,1,10). Although the
straight line distance is one, it travels on the arc of a circle with an angle of 60 degrees at its
center and thus travels (2*pi)/6 or 1.05 (note that it rounds the distance at each leg of the
journey). It moves along the cube's surface from (2,1,10) on the face z=10 to (0,1,9) on the face
x=0. This is a three-mile distance. The total travel distance is 1.05+3=4.05. The result is 4.05

Question 2

Problem Statement:

Find the minimum number of coins required to form any value between 1 to N,both
inclusive.Cumulative value of coins should not exceed N. Coin denominations are 1 Rupee, 2
Rupee and 5 Rupee.Let’s Understand the problem using the following example. Consider the
value of N is 13, then the minimum number of coins required to formulate any value between 1
and 13, is 6. One 5 Rupee, three 2 Rupee and two 1 Rupee coins are required to realize any value
between 1 and 13. Hence this is the answer.However, if one takes two 5 Rupee coins, one 2
rupee coin and two 1 rupee coin, then too all values between 1 and 13 are achieved. But since
the cumulative value of all coins equals 14, i.e., exceeds 13, this is not the answer.

Input Format:

A single integer value.

4th – number of 1 Rupee coins.

Constraints:

Explanation

The minimum number of coins required is 6 with in it

minimum number of 5 Rupee coins =
minimum number of 2 Rupee coins =
minimum number of 1 Rupee coins = 2

Using these coins, we can form any value with in the given value and itself, like below:

Here the given value is 1

For 1 = one 1 Rupee coi
For 2 = one 2 Rupee coi
For 3 = one 1 Rupee coin and one 2 Rupee coin
For 4 = two 2 Rupee coin
For 5 = one 5 Rupee coi
For 6 = one 5 Rupee and one 1 Rupee coin
For 7 = one 5 Rupee and one 2 Rupee coin
For 8 = one 5 Rupee, one 2 Rupee and one 1 Rupee coin
For 9 = one 5 Rupee and two 2 Rupee coin
For 10 = one 5 Rupee, two 2 Rupee and one 1 Rupee coin
For 11 = one 5 Rupee, two 2 Rupee and two 1 Rupee coin
For 12 = one 5 Rupee, three 2 Rupee and one 1 Rupee coin
For 13 = one 5 Rupee, three 2 Rupee and two 1 Rupee coins

Question 3

Problem Statement:

In this superhero epic, the denizens of the Marvel Universe are forced to pick sides when
Captain America and Iron Man come to blows over ideological differences.

The government decides to push for the Hero Registration Act, a law that limits a hero’s
actions. This results in a division in The Avengers. Iron Man stands with this Act, claiming that
their actions must be kept in check otherwise cities will continue to be destroyed, but Captain
America feels that saving the world is daring enough and that they cannot rely on the
government to protect the world. And here the civil war begins.

They are trying make their team stronger by adding more avengers to their team. There are N
avengers lined up.

Rules to add avenger to their team

Any team can start first. But they will alternatively only
They can select avenger from any side. But if they start from one side they can’t move to
the other side in the current chance
They can select as many consecutive avengers as many they want
They will stop only when all the avengers are part of either side
Every Avenger has a power associated with hi
There are some spurious avengers who will decrease the overall power of the team.

Both teams will select players optimally. Find the difference of powers of the two teams

Constraints:


1<= N <= 10^6


-10^9 <= p[i] <= 10^9

Input:


First line contains an integer denoting the number of Avengers(N).


Next lines contain N space separated values denoting power of every avenger(P[i]).

Question 4

Problem Statement:

You are given N comma-separated Strings. You need to form all possible legal subsets of these
N strings. These subsets will be a combination of zero or more of these N Strings After forming
the subsets, they will be ranked in a particular order. The legal subset formation and ranking
logic is as described belo

Rank 1 will always be an empty se

Next N ranks will be the N Strings that appear in the order they are provided in the inpu
After N + 1 ranks, you need to combine N strings such that all legal combinations are forme
Legal combination simply means that while combinations are formed, the string that
appears to the left of a particular string in the input, can never appear to the right of that
particular string, when subsets are forme
A subset with less elements will be ranked higher than a subset with more elements (NOTE-
Rank 1 is higher than rank 2
Refer Example 2 to get a better understanding of how subsets are formed and ranke

Example: you are having an input string “aa,cc,bb” in this string we can see we have three
strings which are comma separated. Now from this group of string we have to create all
possible subset of strings. 8 subsets can be formed from these strings. And they are as
follows

{
{aa
{cc
{bb
{aa,}

Note: Here we can see the ranks given to the subsets are first by size i.e., the subset with
lesser number of strings is ranked higher than the subset with higher size. If the subsets have
equal number of strings then, the combination which is formed earlier (by virtue of combining
strings in order they appear in input), gets a higher rank.

For example, rank of subset (aa,cc) > rank of (aa,bb) because string cc is appearing prior to
string bb in the input. Similarly, rank of (cc) > rank of (bb).

You are provided one rank R and for that you have to print the Rth subset from all legal subsets.

Constraints:

0<N<=10^2

0<R<=10^18

Input:

First line contains an integer N which is number of strings in group.

Second line contains an integer R, for which you have to find Rth subset from all legal subsets.

Third line contains N comma-separated strings basis which the subsets should be formed

Output:

From all possible legal subsets find the subset whose rank is R

Question 5

Problem Statement:

You are a caretaker of a waiting room and you have to take care of empty seats such that all the
people should sit together. Imagine the seats are in a straight line like in a movie theatre.
People are seated on random seats initially. Your task is to make them sit together so that
minimum number of people change their position. Also, they can be made to sit together in
many ways. Find the number of ways you can make them sit together by requiring only minimal
people movement.

“E” depicts an empty seat and “O” depicts an occupied seat. Input will be given in the form of a
string.

Example: OEOEO

As we can see, only seat number 1, 3, 5 are occupied and 2 and 4 are empty.

Case 1: If we move 5th person to 2nd position, they can all be together with only one person
moving his/her place.

Case 2: If we movement 1st person to 4th position, they can all be together with only one
person moving his/her place.
