Problem Statement: You need to traverse the hierarchy data from top to bottom but doesn’t want a particular branch in the output.Solution: We will look at couple of examples for this problem statement.Oracle provides CONNECT BY clause to specify a hierarchical query i.e. how to connect the parent nodes and child nodes and the PRIOR operator to define the join condition/s between the parent nodes, and the LEVEL pseudo-column to indicate how far from the root/parent row the current row is.Additionally, we can use the START WITH clause to indicate where to start the tree navigation. We must use the PRIOR ... Read More
Problem Statement: You need to traverse the hierarchy data from top to bottom and sort the rows at the same level in a hierarchy.Solution: The usual ORDER BY clause will not sort the rows at the same hierarchy level. We need to use SIBLINGS with in the ORDER BY Clause.Additionally, Oracle provides CONNECT BY clause to specify a hierarchical query i.e. how to connect the parent nodes and child nodes and the PRIOR operator to define the join condition/s between the parent nodes, and the LEVEL pseudo-column to indicate how far from the root/parent row the current row is.Additionally, we can ...

Problem Statement: You need to traverse the hierarchy data from top to bottom marking the level of each row in the hierarchy.Solution:Oracle provides CONNECT BY clause to specify a hierarchical query i.e. how to connect the parent nodes and child nodes and the PRIOR operator to define the join condition/s between the parent nodes, and the LEVEL pseudo-column to indicate how far from the root/parent row the current row is.Additionally, we can use the START WITH clause to indicate where to start the tree navigation. We must use the PRIOR operator to specify the column/s in the parent row that have ... Read More
We are an equilateral triangle with side length. The goal is to count the number of distinct rectangles that can be present inside the triangle such that horizontal sides of the rectangle are parallel to the base. Also all end points of the rectangle touch the dots as shown.Let us understand with examplesInput − sides=3Output − Count of distinct rectangles inscribed in an equilateral triangle are − 1Explanation − The figure above shows the rectangle.Input − sides=10Output − Count of distinct rectangles inscribed in an equilateral triangle are − 200Approach used in the below program is as followsAs from the ...

We are given a num number as input. The goal is to count the number of possible strings of length num such that all adjacent characters have difference between ascii values as 1.If num is 2 then strings will be “ab”, “ba”, “bc”, “cb”, ……..”yz”, “zy”.Let us understand with examplesInput − num=3Output − Count of strings where adjacent characters are of difference one are − 98Explanation − Some sample strings are: “abc”, “aba”, “cde” …..”xyx”, “zyz”, “xyz”.Input − num=2Output − Count of strings where adjacent characters are of difference one are − 50Explanation − Some sample strings are: “ab”, “ba”, ...

We are given a number num as input. The goal is to find the number of pairs of form (i, j) such that ((num%i)%j)%num is maximized and i and j both are in range [1, num].Let us understand with examplesInput − num=4Output − Count of pairs of (i, j) such that ((n % i) % j) % n is maximized are − 3Explanation − Pairs will be: (3, 2), (3, 3), (3, 4)Input − num=6Output − Count of pairs of (i, j) such that ((n % i) % j) % n is maximized are − 4Explanation − Pairs will be: ...

We are given a string str containing 0s, 1s and other alphabets . It also contains patterns of the form “1(0+)1” where 0+ means any number (>0) of consecutive 0s. The goal is to find such patterns ( “1(0+)1” ) inside string str.Let us understand with examplesInput − str = “abb010bb10111011”Output − Count of occurrences of a “1(0+)1” pattern in a string are − 2Explanation − The patterns inside str are highlighted: “abb010bb10111011”, “abb010bb10111011”Input − str = “01001011001001100”Output − Count of occurrences of a “1(0+)1” pattern in a string are − 4Explanation − The patterns inside str are highlighted: “01001011001001100”, ...

We are given a circle with K equidistant points on its circumference. Also we are given two points A and B. The goal is to count the number of triangles possible using these points such that they have an obtuse angle ACB( angle greater than 90o) inside them. The points A and B are such that A < B.Here K=8, A=2, B=5, count of points=2 (C, C’) such that angle LACB, LAC’B are obtuse.Let us understand with examplesInput − k=10, A=2, B=4Output − Count of obtuse angles in a circle with ‘k' equidistant points between 2 given points are − ...

We are given a number N and another number L. The goal is to find the numbers between 1 and N that have a difference between the number itself and the sum of its digits is not less than L.If N=23, L=10 then the count of such numbers will be 4.23-(2+3)=18, 22-(2+2)=18, 21-(2+1)=18, 20-(2+0)=18.All above numbers meet the conditionBut 19-(1+9)=9 which is less than L, similarly 18, 17….1.Let us understand with examplesInput − N=30 L=19Output − Count of Numbers such that difference between the number and sum of its digits not less than L are − 1Explanation − Only 30 ...

We are given multiple sentences in the form of strings. The goal is to count the number of words that exist in all of the sentences.Note − words containing all lowercase letters will be considered onlyIf sentences are −“ I am learning C language ”“ learning new things is easy ““ Kids are learning healthy habits “Only “learning” exists in all three. So count is 1.Let us understand with examplesInput − “The clothes were dry”, “All the kids were playing”, “Those were the best days”Output − Count of words that are present in all the given sentences are − 2Explanation ...
