1st Question : Finger counting game 
2nd Question : Count number of triplets with product equal to given number 
3rd Question : Wildcard Pattern Matching 

Around 23 students were selected from the coding round and were called for further interview rounds. 

Round 1(Face-To-Face) 

The interviewer was very friendly. He asked me to introduce myself 

Then he asked me some question 

1) Find kth largest element from the unsorted array 

He asked me to write a code for this. 

2) Expression Evaluation 

I just gave approach may be he is satisfied with this and we discussed about postfix and prefix notation. 

3) Find GCD of two numbers 
Just approach 

At this point he asked me difference between process and thread. 

4) Top view of binary tree 
First we discussed approach He gave m test case where my approach is failing and gave me time to think and i come up with correct approach and then he asked me to write full code on pen-paper and i did it. 

5) Print Power set of non-repeated element string 
ex 
Input-abc 
output- 



ab 
bc 
ca

I came up with recursion approach. Then he asked me to write code after code he asked me to draw recursion tree. Here he find error in code and i gave him simple solution but he asked to write a new code and draw tree again and he left room.
