1.Given a string, write a function that return if it is Palindrome. This wasn't asked directly but from interviewer example i was need to understand that this function must ignore all spaces and special symbols. 2. Given an array, write a function that return true if any 3 elements of this array can sum to 0. My first solution was the simplest and far from best which result in O(n^3). Then interviewer asked me to improve to improve it to O(n^2). This give me a hint that i can use Hash to reduce complexity.

Puzzle: There are 4 persons (A, B, C, and D) who want to cross a bridge in night. A takes 1 minute to cross the bridge. B takes 2 minutes to cross the bridge. C takes 5 minutes to cross the bridge. D takes 10 minutes to cross the bridge. There is only one torch with them and the bridge cannot be crossed without the torch. There cannot be more than two persons on the bridge at any time, and when two people cross the bridge together, they must move at the slower person. What is the minimum time required to cross the bridge

Q1: If there is a new Android engineer, how will you suggest the best practice of async jobs in Android? (And the detail about AsyncTask, Executor, Thread interrupt, memory leak...and so on) Q2: Give an unsorted array, find the kth smallest item (Can you do it more quickly?)

Which of the following program is a correct implementation of fizzbuzz program? FizzBuzz is a program that prints the integers from 0 to 99. But for multiples of three print “Fizz” instead of the number, and for the multiples of five print “Buzz”. For numbers which are multiples of both three and five print “FizzBuzz”. for(i = 0; i < 100; i++) { if(i % 3 == 0) printf("Fizz\n"); if(i % 5 == 0) printf("Buzz\n"); if(i % 15 == 0) printf("FizzBuzz\n"); else printf("%d\n", i); } for(i = 0; i < 100; i++) { if(i % 3 == 0) printf("Fizz\n"); else if(i % 5 == 0) printf("Buzz\n"); else if(i % 15 == 0) printf("FizzBuzz\n"); else printf("%d\n", i); } for(i = 0; i < 100; i++) { if(i % 15 == 0) printf("FizzBuzz\n"); else if(i % 5 == 0) printf("Buzz\n"); else if(i % 3 == 0) printf("Fizz\n"); else printf("%d\n", i); } for(i = 0; i < 100; i++) { if(i % 15 == 0) printf("FizzBuzz\n"); if(i % 5 == 0) printf("Buzz\n"); if(i % 3 == 0) printf("Fizz\n") else printf("%d\n", i); }
