Java Program to read a file and print the duplicated words with their count. 4. SQL Query to group the employee id by their departments and sort them in descending order by their department id. 5. SQL Query to find the managers of the employees where the employee id, employee name, and the manager id is given. 6. How will you feed the values of JSON requests of POST type for an API without reading excel sheet or Database - By the response of other APIs interacting to the current API. 7. How will you supply the value of the current response to the other API's input? 8. For a site like Amazon, how will you validate a search result which gives 1000s of results? 9.

Given a list of lists, iterate over them and detect if a certain pattern exists. I froze, and bombed. After the call I solved it in 3 minutes (naive n^2) ... sigh. I'm pretty sure if I got it right they would changed the pattern such that it required a BFS solution.

Round 2: - What is the difference between - String, StringBuilder, StringBuffer? - What is the difference between - Abstract Class vs Inheritance? - When will you go for Abstract Class and When will you go for Interfaces? - Given arr1 = {1, 12, 15, extra space1, extra space 2, ... ,extra space N}, arr2 = {2, 4, 35}. Merge these two sorted arrays in arr1 without the help of a third array. Makes sure that arr1 is also sorted. Give an O(1) solution. - Balance the given parentheses. - Given an array - Find the sum pairs which satisfies the condition a+b = c+d in the array

Problem Statement: There's a queue which has N producers at one end and N consumers at the other end. The Producers get their input from an SDK. The queue actions can be controlled by APIs. Now When there are 1000+ orders placed in a minute in Myntra portal, come up with a solution in the framework on how you will validate the packets sent and received are the same in the Queue? Note: Here there are N producers and N consumers. Any consumer can receive a packet from any producer. There can also be scenarios that Queue is blocked and not flushed at for a very long time. Due to high traffic, the queue may not drain all the packets at the regular period of interval. Keep all the negative scenarios in mind while designing this framework.
