Java Interview Coding Challenge


 Problem #1

Consider the Following Problem:

  Write a short program that prints each number from 1 to 100 on a new line.

            For each multiple of 3, print "Fizz" instead of the number.

           For each multiple of 5, print "Buzz" instead of the number.

           For numbers which are multiple of both 3 and 5, print "FizzBuzz" instead of the number.


Solution:

public static void printFizzBuzz(int n) {

for(int i=1;i<=n;i++) {

if((i%3==0) && (i%5==0)) {

System.out.println("FizzBuzz");

}else if(i%3==0) {

System.out.println("Fizz");

}else if(i%5==0) {

System.out.println("Buzz");

}else {

System.out.println(i);

}

}

}

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Problem #2

Given an array of integers, return indices of the two numbers such that they add up to a specific target.

You may assume that each input would have exactly one solution, and you may not use the same element twice.

Example:

      Given nums = [2,7,11,15], target = 9,

                Because nums[0] + nums[1] = 2 + 7 =9,

                return [0,1] 

Solution:

public class GetTwoSum{

protected static int[] getTwoSum(int[] numbers, int target) {

//create a Map

Map<Integer, Integer>visitedNumbers = new HashMap<>();

for(int i = 0; i < numbers.length; i++) {

int delta = target - numbers[i];

if(visitedNumbers.containsKey(delta)) {

return new int[] {i, visitedNumbers.get(delta) };

}

visitedNumbers.put(numbers[i], i);

}

return new int[] {-1, -1};

}

public static void main(String[] args) {

printFizzBuzz(100);


int[] numbers = new int[] {2,3,7,4,8};

int target = 6;

int[] result = getTwoSum(numbers, target);

System.out.println(result[0] +" "+result[1]);

}


}

Problem # 3

public static void main(String[] args) {

String str = "Hello World!";

System.out.println(reverseWithStringBuilder(str));

System.out.println(reverseManually(str));


}


private static String reverseManually(String str) {

// Create object fir StringBuilder

StringBuilder sb = new StringBuilder();

for(int i = str.length() - 1; i >= 0; i--) {

sb.append(str.charAt(i));

}

return sb.toString();

}


private static String reverseWithStringBuilder(String str) {

return new StringBuilder(str)

.reverse()

.toString();

}


}

this.top=-1;

}

public void push(int item) {

if(isFull()) {

throw new RuntimeException("Stack is full");

}

array[++top]=item;

}

public boolean isFull() {

return top == capacity - 1;

}



/**

* Pop will return top item and remove from the stack and update the stack

* @return

*/

public int pop() {

if(isEmpty()) {

throw new RuntimeException("Stack is empty");

}

return array[top--];

}

/**

* peek will return the top item and wont remvoe the item from stack

* @return

*/

public int peek() {

Problem # 9:

    Detect Capital

    Given a word, you need to judge whether the usage of capitals in it is right or not.

 Right Usage:

  1. All letters in this word are capitals
  2. All letters in this word are not capitals
  3. Only the first letter in this word is capital   
  • Example:
  • All caps : "USA"     
  •     

public class DetectCapital {

/**
* Approach 1 : The "clever" solution
* Count the number of uppercase letters
* if it is zero or length of string, return true
* if it is not 1, return false
* if it is 1 and the first letter is uppercase, return true
* Time Complexity -- O(N)
* can we do better?
* Disadvantage:
* Quit at the first wrong character
*  valid --AAAAA
*  Valid : aaaa
*  valid : Aaaaa
* @param word
* @return 
*/
public static boolean detectCapitalUse(String word) {
int numberOfCapitals = 0;
for(int i = 0; i < word.length(); i++) {
if(Character.isUpperCase(word.charAt(i))) {
numberOfCapitals++;
}
}
if(numberOfCapitals == word.length() || numberOfCapitals == 0) return true;
return numberOfCapitals == 1 && Character.isUpperCase(word.charAt(0));
}
/**
* Approach 2:
*
*/
public static boolean detectCapitalUse2(String word) {
//Case 1 : All Capitals
int n = word.length();
if(Character.isUpperCase(word.charAt(0)) && Character.isUpperCase(word.charAt(1))) {
for(int i = 2; i< n; i++) {
if(Character.isLowerCase(word.charAt(i))) {
return false;
}
}
}else {
for(int i = 1; i<n;i ++) {
if(Character.isUpperCase(word.charAt(i))) {
return false;
}
}
}
return true;
}
/**
* Approach using LAMBDA 
* Time Complexity - O(N)
* @param args
*/
public boolean detectCapitalUse3(String word) {
if(word.length() <= 1) return true;
Predicate<Character> correctCase = Character::isLowerCase;
if(Character.isUpperCase(word.charAt(0)) && Character.isUpperCase(word.charAt(1))) {
correctCase = Character::isUpperCase;
}
for(int i = 1; i < word.length(); i++) {
if(!correctCase.test(word.charAt(i))) return false;
}
return true;
}
