Python Coding Questions and Answers

1. Reverse a String
def reverse_string(s):
return s[::-1]

# Example
print(reverse_string("analyst")) # Output: "tsylana"

2. Find Duplicates in a List


def find_duplicates(lst):
return set([x for x in lst if lst.count(x) > 1])

# Example
print(find_duplicates([1, 2, 3, 2, 4, 5, 1])) # Output: {1, 2}

3. Implement a Stack
class Stack:
def __init__(self):
self.stack = []

def push(self, item):


self.stack.append(item)

def pop(self):
return self.stack.pop() if self.stack else None

def peek(self):
return self.stack[-1] if self.stack else None

def is_empty(self):
return len(self.stack) == 0

# Example
s = Stack()
s.push(10)
s.push(20)
print(s.pop()) # Output: 20

4. Check Palindrome
def is_palindrome(s):
cleaned = ''.join(filter(str.isalnum, s)).lower()
return cleaned == cleaned[::-1]

# Example
print(is_palindrome("Madam")) # Output: True
5. Find Missing Number
def find_missing_number(lst):
n = len(lst) + 1
expected_sum = n * (n + 1) // 2
actual_sum = sum(lst)
return expected_sum - actual_sum

# Example
print(find_missing_number([1, 2, 4, 5])) # Output: 3

6. Count Vowels and Consonants


def count_vowels_consonants(s):
vowels = "aeiou"
s = s.lower()
v_count = sum(1 for ch in s if ch in vowels and ch.isalpha())
c_count = sum(1 for ch in s if ch not in vowels and ch.isalpha())
return v_count, c_count

# Example
print(count_vowels_consonants("Hello Analyst")) # Output: (4, 7)

7. Merge Sorted Lists


def merge_sorted_lists(a, b):
result = []
i = j = 0
while i < len(a) and j < len(b):
if a[i] < b[j]:
result.append(a[i])
i += 1
else:
result.append(b[j])
j += 1
result.extend(a[i:])
result.extend(b[j:])
return result

# Example
print(merge_sorted_lists([1, 3, 5], [2, 4, 6])) # Output: [1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6]

8. Implement a Queue
from collections import deque

class Queue:
def __init__(self):
self.queue = deque()

def enqueue(self, item):


self.queue.append(item)

def dequeue(self):
return self.queue.popleft() if self.queue else None

def is_empty(self):
return len(self.queue) == 0

# Example
q = Queue()
q.enqueue(1)
q.enqueue(2)
print(q.dequeue()) # Output: 1

9. Find Maximum Subarray Sum


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

# Example
print(max_subarray_sum([-2, 1, -3, 4, -1, 2, 1, -5, 4])) # Output: 6
