Interview questions [5]
Question 1
typically questions consist of book defination of class and object, polymorphism , over riding etc
There will be definately questions on bits/bytes and small basic questions on Hexa decimal like
what is result if you add 1 to hexa F. ( there are good tutorials online which explains concept).
3) you may be ask to write small function to convert integer to bits or swap 16bits value
write a function to find 2nd highest value in an array. Basic questions on STL library , some baisc regrex questions , difference between left join right join ( only basic stuff). I guess w3school tutorial is fine incase if you want to refresh .
simple sql query using joins.
it was good one mostly asked about DSA and system design problems and they asked me to do white board coding a normal Depth First search question. and first we have to clear a OA before hearing back from hr.
