Fibonacci number
Q1. Can you write a function to determine the nth Fibonacci number? The Fibonacci numbers under 2000 are : 0, 1, 1, 2, 3, 5, 8, 13, 21, 34, 55, 89, 144, 233, 377, 610, 987, 1597. Where the zeroth number being 0, first number being 1, … Read more...
Fibonacci number with caching and Java 8 FP
Complimenting Fibonacci number coding – iterative and recursive approach, we can improve performance by caching. If you run this Output and you can see “fibonacci(3)” is repeated 2 times, “fibonacci(2)” is repeated 3 times, and so on. If you pick a larger number like 21, … Read more ›...
Find 2 numbers from an array that add up to the target
Q1. Given an array of integers, find two numbers such that they add up to a specific target number? For example, Given numbers: {2, 3, 8, 7, 5} Target number: 9 Result: 2 and 7 A1. Solution 1: Store processed numbers in a set. … Read more ›...
Find the first non repeated character in a given string input
Pseudocode 1) Precodnition check for null or empty input. 2) Loop throught the input string, and store each “character” as a key in a map with the value being the “character count”. For example, an input string of “stress” would have Key –Value s -3 t -1 r -1 e...
