Interview Round: Date – 10/10/2021

Started with the Introduction. Without wasting any second, he came to the coding part        

He asked a coding question-        

1. Given an array of strings. Print first non-repeating string from the stream of strings in the given array.

   Input -> ["a","b","c","b","a"]        
   Output -> ["a","a","a","a","c"]        

   I gave 3 different approaches     

   Approach 1: Brute Force        

   He asked me to optimize it.        

   Approach 2: I gave the second approach by using a queue and a map.        

   But queue operations needed O(n) time so he asked to optimize it and do it in constant time by using some other linear data structure.        

   Approach 3: I didn’t know the solution prior so I kept thinking about it. After discussing and thinking a lot I came up with a solution.        

   I explained my approach by using a doubly-linked list and a map. Then he asked me to code it down.        

   I gave the whole working code.              

I was finally hired for the Internship at Amazon. I would like to thank GeeksforGeeks which helped me a lot in my preparation.
