Describe a data project you worked on. What were some of the challenges you faced?

Talk about a time when you had trouble communicating with stakeholders. How were you able to overcome it?

You are given a dictionary with two keys <code>a</code> and <code>b</code> that hold integers as their values.

Without declaring any other variable, swap the value of <code>a</code> with the value of <code>b</code> and vice versa.

Note: Return the dictionary after editing it.

Example:

Input:

<pre tabindex="0" class="chroma"><code>numbers = {
 &#39;a&#39;:3,
 &#39;b&#39;:4
}
</code></pre>

Output:

<pre tabindex="0" class="chroma"><code>def swap_values(numbers) -&gt; {&#39;a&#39;:4,&#39;b&#39;:3}
</code></pre>

Let’s say you work for an e-commerce company. Vendors can send products to the company’s warehouse to be listed on the website. Users are able to order any in-stock products and submit returns for refunds if they’re not satisfied.

The front end of the website includes a vendor portal that provides sales data in daily, weekly, monthly, quarterly, and yearly intervals.

The company wants to expand worldwide. They put you in charge of designing its end-to-end architecture, so you need to know what significant factors you’ll need to consider. What clarifying questions would you ask?

What kind of end-to-end architecture would you design for this company (both for ETL and reporting)?

The Fibonacci sequence is a series of numbers in which each number is the sum of the two preceding ones, usually starting with 0 and 1. It is often used in algorithm examples, and is defined by the following formula: F(n) = F(n-1) + F(n-2), with F(0) = 0 and F(1) = 1.

Your task is to implement the Fibonacci algorithm in three different methods:
1. Recursively
2. Iteratively
3. Using Memoization

Example 1:

Input:

<pre tabindex="0" class="chroma"><code>n = 5
</code></pre>

Output:

<pre tabindex="0" class="chroma"><code>fibonacci(n) -&gt; 5
</code></pre>

Example 2:

Input:

<pre tabindex="0" class="chroma"><code>n = 10
</code></pre>

Output:

<pre tabindex="0" class="chroma"><code>fibonacci(n) -&gt; 55
</code></pre>

The Fibonacci sequence starts as follows: 0, 1, 1, 2, 3, 5, 8, 13, 21, 34, 55…

Singly-linked lists are a type of linked list where nodes have only one pointer: A pointer to the next element. Create a class <code>SinglyLinkedList</code> along with its methods:

<ul>
<li><code>add_head(element)</code> - adds an element to the head of the list. This becomes the new head of the linked list.</li>
<li><code>add_tail(element)</code> - adds an element to the tail of the list. This becomes the new tail of the linked list.</li>
<li><code>remove_head() -&gt; element</code> - removes the head and returns the value of the removed element.</li>
<li><code>remove_tail() -&gt; element</code> - removes the tail and returns the value of the removed element.</li>
<li><code>__contains__(item) -&gt; bool</code> - checks if the item is inside the list. Returns <code>True</code> if it is inside the list and returns <code>False</code> if not. This method is implemented to allow the use of Python’s <code>in</code> operator.</li>
<li><code>__getitem__(index)</code> - returns the element at the specified index. Raises an <code>IndexError</code> if the index is out of bounds. This method is implemented to allow the use of Python’s <code>[]</code> operator.</li>
<li><code>__len__()</code> - returns the length of the <code>SinglyLinkedList</code>.</li>
</ul>

Let’s say you’re a senior data analyst and your team is tasked with addressing data quality issues for an airline company. Customer records, booking details, and flight schedules often have missing fields, duplicate entries, or incorrect data.

How would you approach improving the quality of this data and ensuring it remains clean and reliable over time?

Let’s say we manage a factory where the current manual production line employs 50 workers, and we have the option to upgrade to a robotic system that can produce parts at 3 times the current rate.

How would you approach deciding between upgrading to robotics or keeping the manual line, if our goals are to minimize total production time while also maintaining high employee satisfaction?

How would you balance production speed and employee satisfaction when considering a switch to robotics?
