Process
I cleared the first round, which consisted of basic dynamic programming questions.
After that, there were two Zoom interviews on the same day.
They asked me to implement something related to the graph coloring problem. I was not able to understand the problem clearly, but it went smoothly.
Questions
Implement any graph coloring algorithm.
