COURSE BREAKDOWN

Section 0: Introduction to Interview Questions

  • Course Overview

  • FizzBuzz: Print the numbers from 1 to 100 and for multiples of '3' print "Fizz" instead of the number and for the multiples of '5' print "Buzz".

Section 1: String/Array Interview Questions

  • Reverse Words in a String: Given an input string, reverse the string word by word.

  • Rotate Array: Rotate an array of n elements to the left by k steps.

  • Kth Largest Element in an Array: Find the kth largest element in an unsorted array. Note that it is the kth largest element in the sorted order, not the kth distinct element.

Section 2: Matrix Interview Questions

  • Set Matrix Zeroes: Given a 2D matrix, if an element is 0, set its entire row and column to 0. Do it in place.

  • Spiral Matrix: Given a 2D matrix, return all elements of the matrix in spiral order.

Section 3: Linked List Interview Questions

  • Implement a Queue Using a Linked List: Hit two data structures in one by implementing a queue and a linked list in one interview question.

Section 4: Tree Interview Questions

  • Build a Binary Tree - Learn about binary trees and BST as you implement a highly asked about data structure, the binary tree.

  • Delete a Tree Node

Section 5: Graph Interview Questions

  • Build a Graph: Each node in the graph contains a label and a list of its neighbors.

Section 6: Sorting and Time Complexity

  • Bubble Sort Algorithm: Sort a list with bubble sort.

  • Selection Sort Algorithm: Sort a list with selection sort.

  • Insertion Sort Algorithm: Sort a list with insertion sort.

  • Merge Sort Algorithm: Sort a list with Merge Sort.

  • Time Complexity of Different Sorting Algorithms: Learn the types of time complexity in Big-O Notation in order of horrible to good.

Section 7 Dynamic Programming Interview Questions

  • Coin Change: You are given coins of different denominations and a total amount of money amount. Write a function to compute the fewest number of coins that you need to make up that amount.

  • Edit Distance: Find the edit distance between two strings.

  • Distinct Subsequences: Given a string S and a string T, count the number of distinct subsequences of T in S.

Section 8 Bit Manipulation Interview Questions

  • Bitwise and Shift Operators: Manipulate bits and shift bits to change values.

  • Single Number: Given an array of integers, every element appears twice except for one. Find that single one.

  • Number of 1 Bits: Take an unsigned integer and return the number of ’1' bits it has (also known as the Hamming weight.

  • Bitwise AND of a Range: Given two non-negative long integers, a and b and given a <= b, find the bitwise AND of all integers from a and b.

Section 9 Combinations and Permutations Interview Questions

  • Permutations: Print all permutations of a given string.

  • Combinations: Print all combinations of a given string.

REVIEWS OF MAMMOTH COURSES

Captivating voice, easy to follow at a rapid pace, get some paper and fasten your seat-belts. I'm enjoying every second of this.

— PHILIP MURRAY

I have completed many Udemy tutorials. This one is the most outstanding one that I have seen thus far. It is doubtful that it could be topped. This is a superior tutorial. Amazing.
