Process
Initially, I was asked to complete a programming assessment, which involved converting C code into C++ and Java using object-oriented concepts. Following that, I had a technical interview where I was asked about simple algorithms and their time and space complexity. The interviewer then inquired about my programming assessment, seeking suggestions for improvement, and followed up with some technical questions on Java.
Questions
Algorithm Question 1: How do you find if two strings are anagrams?
Anagram definition: Two strings having the same characters, e.g., 'united' and 'untied'.
Time complexity and space complexity for the same.
Algorithm Question 2: How do you determine if a number is a power of 2?
Example: 32 is 2 to the power of 5.
Time complexity and space complexity for the same.
Technical Questions:
What is a final method?
What does finalize do?
What are the different object-oriented concepts?
Explain memory management in Java.
What does the final keyword do?
