Find out the Longest Path in a matrix

geekycodesco0 CommentsInterview, Interview Questions, PythonAlgorithms, Coding, Programming, Python

Given an m-by-n matrix with positive integers, determine the length of the longest path of increasing within the matrix. For example, consider the input matrix:[1 2 34 5 67 8 9] The answer should be 5 since the longest path would be 1-2-5-6-9 def isValid(mat, i, j): return 0 <= i < len(mat) and 0 <= j < len(mat) def findLongestPath(mat, i, j): if not isValid(mat, i, j): return [] path = [] if i > 0 and mat[i - 1][j] - mat[i][j] == 1: path = findLongestPath(mat, i - 1, j) if j + 1 < len(mat) and mat[i][j…

Explain the central limit theorem and give examples of when you can use it in a real-world problem.

geekycodesco0 CommentsInterview, Interview Questions

The center limit theorem states that if any random variable, regardless of the distribution, is sampled a large enough time, the sample mean will be approximately normally distributed. This allows for studying the properties of any statistical distribution as long as there is a large enough sample size. Important remark from Adrian Olszewski:⚠️ we can rely on the CLT with means (because it applies to any unbiased statistic) only if expressing data in this way makes sense. And it makes sense *ONLY* in the case of unimodal and symmetric data, coming from additive processes. So forget skewed, multi-modal data with mixtures of…

What are the motivation behind random forests and mention two reasons why they are better than individual decision trees?

geekycodesco0 CommentsInterview, Interview Questions

The motivation behind random forest or ensemble models in general in layman's terms, Let's say we have a question/problem to solve we bring 100 people and ask each of them the question/problem and record their solution. Next, we prepare a solution which is a combination/ a mixture of all the solutions provided by these 100 people. We will find that the aggregated solution will be close to the actual solution. This is known as the "Wisdom of the crowd" and this is the motivation behind Random Forests. We take weak learners (ML models) specifically, Decision Trees in the case of…

How to start programming? Step By Step Guide

geekycodesco0 CommentsBlog, Interview, Real Life Examples, TutorialsC Programming, CSV files, Dataframe, DataScience, Machine learning, Programming, Python

Programming is the key to getting success in a tech carrier, when I talk about programming I mean efficient programming. It means the coding which is time and space-efficient. How can we make programs which is time and space-efficient by learning data structure and Algorithms? So that’s why data structure and algorithms are so much required for preparing for interviews. Now there is a huge list of websites that are there for preparing these algorithms and these algorithms and data structures are mostly used during interviews as when we are working in Industry we mostly focus on API development and using the…

What are the good websites to learn data structures and algorithms?

geekycodesco0 CommentsAlgorithms, Blog, Interview, Real Life ExamplesC Programming, Coding, Dataframe, DataScience, Datasets, Machine learning, Programming, Python, SAP

Well! Programming is fun once you get it and the great part is a decent developer gets an enormous check from Top Tech Giants Like (Google, Amazon, Walmart, Microsoft, Facebook, and Apple). Data Structure and algorithms are needed for breaking interviews in these first-rate organizations. Regardless of whether you are a fledgling or middle in Algorithm abilities for the most part learning complete data structure, required 2-3 months. Likewise, getting ready code without help from anyone else is the fundamental model for the arrangement cycle. The following are a few decent assets for learning Data structure and Algorithms: 1. Geeksforgeeks: Geeksforgeeks has an expanse of issues.…

Search an element in a sorted and rotated array

geekycodesco0 CommentsAlgorithms, C, Interview, TutorialsArray, C Program, C Programming, C Programming tutorials, Coding

An element in a sorted array can be found in O(log n) time via binary search. But suppose we rotate an ascending order sorted array at some pivot unknown to you beforehand. So for instance, 1 2 3 4 5 might become 3 4 5 1 2. Devise a way to find an element in the rotated array in O(log n) time. Example: Input : arr[] = {5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 1, 2, 3}; key = 3 Output : Found at index 8 Input : arr[] = {5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 1, 2, 3}; key = 30…

C Program to Insert an element in array

geekycodesco0 CommentsC, C++, Interview, TutorialsArray, Array Insertions, C Programming, Insert in array, Operations in array, Programming

An array is a collection of items stored at contiguous memory locations. In this article, we will see how to insert an element in an array in C.Given an array arr of size n, this article tells how to insert an element x in this array arr at a specific position pos. For example we have to insert 100 at 3rd position. Algorithm Here’s how to do it. First get the element to be inserted, say xThen get the position at which this element is to be inserted, say posThen shift the array elements from this position to one position forward, and do this for all the other elements next to…

A backend developer is responsible for building the structure of a software application HTTP The Hyper Text Transfer Protocol(HTTP) is the foundation of the World Wide Web, and is used to load web pages using the hypertext linksHTTP is an typical flow over HTTP which involves a client machine making a request to a server, which then sends a response message. REST RES stands for Representational State Transfer.It is a set of protocol/standards that describe how communication should take place between the computers and other applications across the network.Suppose a Web App wants to communicate to a Web Server, So a…
