Process

I applied through college or university, and the process is still not over.

First round was an online assessment. The assessment test had four sections:

  • 2 Minute Section
  • Math
  • New Programming language

The 2-Minute section had 10 SAT-based questions to be solved in 2 minutes. I think this was basically to test your speed and how quickly you respond to things.

The Math section had 14 questions, and had pretty easy ones too. Not that bad for someone who's done engineering. No probability or statistics questions. Basic SAT-based questions, but a bit tricky.

The New Language Section introduces a new programming language. It was easy. Just know the basics of programming and read the questions carefully, and you'll get through them easily. Use common sense also; don't completely go by the questions. They are tricky too.

Second round was programming. It had 4 questions:

  1. Given some miles traveled and fuel arrays at different times, you have to calculate the MPG and MPH of a car. (Brute Force, Implementation)
  2. Transportation is a process where you can swap any 2 adjacent characters in a string. Given a source and a target string, write a program to print all the intermediate strings to reach from source to target. (Recursion)
  3. Print all palindromes of size greater than or equal to 3 of a given string. (DP)
  4. Given an NxN board with 0 (unoccupied), 1 (occupied by piece 1), 2 (occupied by piece 2). Coordinates of a piece is given. You can move diagonally and jump over all the pieces which are distinct from the given piece and reach cell 0. Find the longest jump following this rule.

I did all the questions and am waiting to hear from them.

Questions

If an apple costs $10, grapefruit costs $20, and a banana costs $15, how much will a pear cost?
