Arrays, Strings and Intervals

Alex Chen40 min readUpdated 49 real interview reports

These problems are short and don't build on each other. One has two good answers you should know, one is a table lookup, and one is a binary search with a twist.

Each one turns on a boundary case, so name it before you type, such as two intervals that touch at one instant or the entries a lookup table is missing.

An input with no twist at all is still valid, and your search has to handle it. Say each of these cases out loud early, then write a test for it.
