Questions Pool For Lab-1

1. Reverse a String (Easy)


Write a function to reverse a string.

Example:

def reverse_string(s):

return s[::-1]

# Input

print(reverse_string("hello"))

Input: "hello"
Output: "olleh"

2. Two Sum (Easy)


Find two numbers in a list that add up to a given sum.

Example:

def two_sum(nums, target):

seen = {}
for i, num in enumerate(nums):

complement = target - num

if complement in seen:

return [seen[complement], i]

seen[num] = i

# Input

print(two_sum([2, 7, 11, 15], 9))

Input: nums = [2, 7, 11, 15], target = 9


Output: [0, 1] # indices of the numbers

3. FizzBuzz (Easy)
Write a function that prints numbers from 1 to n but for multiples of 3, print "Fizz" instead of the
number, and for multiples of 5, print "Buzz". For numbers that are multiples of both 3 and 5, print
"FizzBuzz".

Example:

def fizz_buzz(n):

result = []

for i in range(1, n + 1):

if i % 3 == 0 and i % 5 == 0:

result.append("FizzBuzz")

elif i % 3 == 0:
result.append("Fizz")

elif i % 5 == 0:

result.append("Buzz")

else:

result.append(i)

return result

Input: n = 15
Output: [1, 2, "Fizz", 4, "Buzz", "Fizz", 7, 8, "Fizz", "Buzz", 11,
"Fizz", 13, 14, "FizzBuzz"]

4. Valid Parentheses (Easy/Medium)


Check if a string has a balanced set of parentheses.

Example:

def is_valid_parentheses(s):
stack = []
mapping = {')': '(', '}': '{', ']': '['}
for char in s:
if char in mapping:
top_element = stack.pop() if stack else '#'
if mapping[char] != top_element:
return False
else:
stack.append(char)
return not stack

# Input
print(is_valid_parentheses("()[]{}"))

Input: "()[]{}"
Output: True
5. Merge Two Sorted Arrays (Easy)
Merge two sorted arrays into one sorted array.

Example:

def merge_sorted_arrays(nums1, nums2):

return sorted(nums1 + nums2)

# Input

print(merge_sorted_arrays([1, 3, 5], [2, 4, 6]))

# Output

# [1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6]

Input: nums1 = [1, 3, 5], nums2 = [2, 4, 6]


Output: [1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6]

6. Palindrome Check (Easy)


Check if a string is a palindrome.

Example:

def is_palindrome(s):

return s == s[::-1]
# Input

print(is_palindrome("racecar"))

# Output

# True

Input: "racecar"
Output: True

7. Maximum Subarray Sum (Medium)


Find the contiguous subarray with the maximum sum.

​
​
Example:

def max_subarray_sum(nums):

max_sum = current_sum = nums[0]

for num in nums[1:]:

current_sum = max(num, current_sum + num)

max_sum = max(max_sum, current_sum)

return max_sum

# Input

print(max_subarray_sum([-2, 1, -3, 4, -1, 2, 1, -5, 4]))

# Output
#6

Input: nums = [-2, 1, -3, 4, -1, 2, 1, -5, 4]


Output: 6 # Subarray is [4, -1, 2, 1]

8. Find the Majority Element (Medium)


Find the element that appears more than n/2 times in an array.

Example:

def majority_element(nums):

count = {}

for num in nums:

count[num] = count.get(num, 0) + 1

if count[num] > len(nums) // 2:

return num

# Input

print(majority_element([3, 2, 3]))

# Output

#3

Input: nums = [3, 2, 3]


Output: 3
9. Anagram Check (Easy)
Check if two strings are anagrams.

Example:

def are_anagrams(s1, s2):

return sorted(s1) == sorted(s2)

# Input

print(are_anagrams("listen", "silent"))

# Output

# True

Input: s1 = "listen", s2 = "silent"


Output: True

10. Find Duplicates in Array (Easy/Medium)


Find duplicate elements in an array.

Example:

def find_duplicates(nums):

seen = set()

duplicates = set()

for num in nums:

if num in seen:

duplicates.add(num)
else:

seen.add(num)

return list(duplicates)

# Input

print(find_duplicates([1, 2, 3, 1]))

# Output

# [1]

Tasks:
1.​ An attacker encoded malicious commands in reverse to evade detection. Write a
function to reverse the encoded string and reveal the original command.
2.​ You suspect two IPs are responsible for a combined unusual amount of traffic. Given a
list of traffic volumes, find the two IPs that sum to the suspicious traffic.
3.​ You are monitoring server logs. If a log appears every 3 seconds, tag it as "Ping"; every
5 seconds, tag it as "Pong"; and if it overlaps (15 seconds), tag it as "PingPong"
4.​ A security system uses nested encryption keys represented by parentheses, brackets,
and braces. Write a function to verify if the key structure is valid.
5.​ You need to merge sorted lists of blocked IPs from two different servers into one
comprehensive list.
6.​ An encrypted password is suspected to be a palindrome for simplicity. Verify if the
password meets this condition.
7.​ During a DDoS attack analysis, find the longest burst of consecutive traffic spikes
(subarray with the maximum sum).
8.​ An analysis of failed login attempts shows one IP address dominates. Identify the
majority IP from the log.
9.​ You suspect a phishing domain is using a scrambled version of your official domain.
Check if two domains are anagrams.
10.​A log file contains duplicate entries of the same IPs. Find all duplicate IPs.
