<p>For example, if Alice and Bob both combined income make 200K and work on a project of a budget of 50K that takes half a year, then the project is over budget given 0.5 * 200K = 100K &gt; 50K.</p>

Total Spent on Products

<p>As an accountant for a local grocery store, you have been tasked with calculating the daily sales of each product since their last restocking.</p>

<p>You have been provided with three tables: <code>products</code>, <code>sales</code>, and <code>restocking</code>. The <code>products</code> table contains information about each product, the <code>sales</code> table records the sales transactions, and the <code>restocking</code> table tracks the restocking events.</p>

<p>Write a query to retrieve the running total of sales for each product since its last restocking event.</p>

<p><strong><em>Notes:</em></strong> <em>The <code>sales_since_last_restock</code> column represents the cumulative sales of the product for each day since its last restocking event. Order the result set by <code>product_id</code>.</em></p>

Product Sense & Metrics

<p>You’re a data analyst working for Burlington studying customer behavior during the annual Black Friday shopping spree. Each customer may visit the store multiple times throughout the day and make several purchases across different product categories. The marketing team wants to understand which customer segments were most engaged.</p>

<p>Write a SQL query to compute the following metrics for each product category:</p>

<ol>
<li>Total number of unique customers who purchased from that category</li>
<li>Average spend per customer (rounded to 2 decimal places)</li>
<li>Percentage of customers who made more than one purchase in that category (rounded to 2 decimal places)</li>
</ol>

<p>Sort the final results in descending order by average spend per customer.</p>

<p><strong><em>Notes:</em></strong></p>

<ul>
<li><em>A “purchase” means a single row in the purchases table.</em></li>
<li><em>A customer who buys multiple items in one visit still counts as multiple purchases.</em></li>
<li><em>If a customer purchased from a category only once, they should not count toward the “multiple purchase” percentage.</em></li>
<li><em>Every category present in the purchases table should appear in the output.</em></li>

<p><strong>Explanation</strong></p>

<p>For Electronics, there are three unique customers: 101, 102, and 103. Their spend amounts are 200 for customer 101 (120 + 80), 150 for customer 102, and 300 for customer 103, giving an average spend of 216.67. Only customer 101 made more than one purchase, so the multi-purchase rate is 33.33%.</p>

<p>For Clothing, there are two unique customers: 102 and 103. Customer 102 spent a total of 50 (40 + 10), while customer 103 spent 50, resulting in an average of 50.00. Customer 102 is the only one with multiple purchases, leading to a multi-purchase rate of 50.00%.</p>

<p>There was a robbery from the ATM at the bank where you work. Some unauthorized withdrawals were made, and you need to help your bank find out more about those withdrawals.</p>

<p>However, the only information you have is that there was more than 1 withdrawal, they were all performed in 10-second gaps, and no legitimate transactions were performed in between two fraudulent withdrawals.</p>

<p>We’re given a table of bank transactions with three columns, <code>user_id</code>, a deposit or withdrawal value <code>transaction_value</code>, and <code>created_at</code> time for each transaction.</p>

<p>Write a query to retrieve all user IDs in ascending order whose transactions have exactly a 10-second gap from one another.</p>

<p><em>Note: Assume that there are only withdrawals from the ATM, which are denoted with a positive <code>transaction_value</code></em></p>

<p>Let’s say that you work for an online media company. The media company is starting to monetize its web traffic and wants to experiment with adding web banners into the middle of its reading content to see if it can monetize effectively.</p>

<p>How would you measure the success of the banner ad strategy?</p>


<p>Given a list of strings, write a function that returns their longest common prefix. For example, if you were given the strings <code>&#34;flowers&#34;</code>, <code>&#34;flow&#34;</code>, and <code>&#34;flight&#34;</code>, your function should return the string <code>&#34;fl&#34;</code>.</p>

<p>If the list of strings has no common prefix, return an empty string.</p>

<p><strong>Example 1:</strong></p>

<p><strong>Input:</strong></p>

<p>You are given two sentences as <code>strings</code>. Create a function that returns a list of all words that are <strong>not</strong> in both sentences.</p>

<p>You can assume that the sentences have no punctuation marks, extra tabs, or spaces.</p>

<p><em>Note: The strings <code>&#34;Game&#34;</code> and <code>&#34;game&#34;</code> should be considered the same word. Because of this, make sure all the strings in the list you output are in lowercase.</em></p>

<p>Given a string, write a function to determine if it is palindrome or not.</p>

<p><em>Note: A palindrome is a word/string that is read the same way forward as it is backward, e.g. <code>&#39;reviver&#39;</code>, <code>&#39;madam&#39;</code>, <code>&#39;deified&#39;</code> and <code>&#39;civic&#39;</code> are all palindromes, while <code>&#39;tree&#39;</code>, <code>&#39;music&#39;</code> and <code>&#39;person&#39;</code> are not palindromes.</em></p>
