Positive ExperienceNo Offer

Process

Phone screen test of duration 45 minutes. The interviewer started by briefly describing his work and then immediately moved to asking interview questions. Towards the end, he left 5 minutes for me to ask questions.

Questions

Given a string like "12345" and an alphabet-to-number mapping (a=1, b=2, ..., z=26), write code to find the number of possible alphabet strings from the given string.

For example, the string "12345" has possible alphabet strings such as {"lcde", "awde", "abcde"}.
