Q2374. Write code to see if a Linked List has cycle in it ?

or

Write code using Floyd Algorithm to see if a linked list has cycle in it ? What is it's comlexity ?

Algorithm

Ans. public class LinkedList {

Node start = null;
Node head = null;

class Node {
Integer body;
Node nextNode;

Node(Integer value) {
body = value;
}
}

public static void main(String[] args) {
LinkedList ll = new LinkedList();

ll.addNodeToEnd(5);
ll.addNodeToEnd(10);
ll.addNodeToEnd(15);

ll.traverse();

if(checkIfLoop(l1)){
System.out.println("There is a Loop");
} else {
System.out.println("No Loop");
}
}

private boolean checkifLoop(Test l1) {
Node slow = start;
Node fast = start;
Node faster = start;

while(slow != null ) {
fast = slow.nextNode;
faster = fast.nextNode;
if(slow == fast || slow == faster) {
return true;
}
slow = slow.nextNode;
}

return false;
}

}

Q2376. What is the runtime complexity of appending strings to string object and Why ?

Algorithm

Ans. O(n^2) because each time a string is appended a new String is created and it runs through all the letters to copy them over.

Q2387. Which data structure would you use to implement LRU cache and Why ? Can you tell me the time complexity for it ?

Algorithm

Ans. We can use LinkedHashMap as it will give time complexity of O(1) for lookup and We can maintain the insertion order to identify the Last used elements for eviction.

Q2391. Difference between concatMap and flatMap ?

RxJava

Ans. Flatmap converts stream(s) into a single streams without maintaining a order where as concatmap does the same along with maintaining the order

flatmap example -[[1,2,3],[4,5,6],[7,8,9]] -> [1,4,7,2,5,8,3,6,9]

concatmap example -[[1,2,3],[4,5,6],[7,8,9]] -> [1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9]

Q2398. What is synchronization in multithreading ?

Ans. When we start two or more threads within a program, there may be a situation when multiple threads try to access the same resource and finally they can produce unforeseen result due to concurrency issues.

For example, if multiple threads try to write within a same file then they may corrupt the data because one of the threads can override data or while one thread is opening the same file at the same time another thread might be closing the same file.

So there is a need to synchronize the action of multiple threads and make sure that only one thread can access the resource at a given point in time. This is implemented using a concept called monitors. Each object in Java is associated with a monitor, which a thread can lock or unlock. Only one thread at a time may hold a lock on a monitor."

Q2399. can we use null as keyword ?

Core Java

Ans. null is a literal similar to true and false in Java. These are not keywords because these are the values of something. As null is the value of a reference variable, true is the value of a boolean variable.

Q2400. what is parallel array sorting?

Algorithm

Ans. Java provides a new additional feature in Array class which is used to sort array elements in parallel.New methods have been added to the java.util.Arrays package that use the JSR 166 Fork/Join parallelism common pool to provide sorting of arrays in parallel.

The methods are called parallelSort() and are overloaded for all the primitive data types and Comparable objects.
