Process

Two telephone interviews:

  • One with the Team Lead
  • Another with the Director of Engineering

Questions

Count the number of duplicate elements in a Binary Search Tree. They are looking for a specific answer: it has to be an inorder traversal with the previous node matching.

The second interview was inserting into a BST using the function prototype insert(int n);.

The program should work for:

cpp BST root = new BST(); root.insert(10);

You can create the class any way you want, but there are restrictions, such as you have to use primitives (int) as the value.
