Given an integer <code>N</code>, write a function that returns a list of all of the prime numbers up to <code>N</code>.

Note: Return an empty list there are no prime numbers less than or equal to <code>N</code>.

Example:

Input:

<pre tabindex="0" class="chroma"><code>N = 3
</code></pre>

Output:

<pre tabindex="0" class="chroma"><code>def prime_numbers(N) -&gt; [2,3]
</code></pre>

You have an array of integers, <code>nums</code> of length <code>n</code> spanning <code>0</code> to <code>n</code> with one missing. Write a function <code>missing_number</code> that returns the missing number in the array.

Note: Complexity of \(O(n)\) required.

Example:

Input:

<pre tabindex="0" class="chroma"><code>nums = [0,1,2,4,5] 
missing_number(nums) -&gt; 3
</code></pre>

Let’s say that you work at a bank that wants to build a model to detect fraud on the platform.

The bank wants to implement a text messaging service in addition that will text customers when the model detects a fraudulent transaction in order for the customer to approve or deny the transaction with a text response.

How would we build this model?

Tell me about a data project that didn’t go the way you expected. What did you set out to do, what surprised you, and how did you handle it?

You are given two rectangles <code>a</code> and <code>b</code> each defined by four ordered pairs denoting their corners on the <code>x</code>, <code>y</code> plane. Write a function <code>rectangle_overlap</code> to determine whether or not they overlap. Return <code>True</code> if so, and <code>False</code> otherwise.

Note: If the two rectangles border one another, or share a corner like two diagonally adjacent positions on a chessboard, they are said to overlap.

Note: The lists of ordered pairs are in no particular order. The first entry in list <code>a</code> could be the top left corner while the first in list <code>b</code> is the bottom right.

Example:

Input:

<pre tabindex="0" class="chroma"><code>
a = [(-3,5), (-3,2),(0,5),(0,2)]
b = [(-1,4), (3,4), (3,1), (-1,1)]
</code></pre>

Output:

<pre tabindex="0" class="chroma"><code>def rectangle_overlap(a, b) -&gt; True
</code></pre>

As point <code>(0,2)</code> is fully contained in rectangle <code>b</code> and point <code>(-1,4)</code> is fully contained in a rectangle <code>a</code>.

<h1>Binary Tree Validation</h1>

You are given the root of a binary tree. You need to determine if it is a valid binary search tree (BST).

A valid BST is defined as follows:

<ul>
<li>The left subtree of a node contains only nodes with values less than or equal to the node’s value.</li>
<li>The right subtree of a node contains only nodes with values greater than or equal to the node’s value.</li>
<li>Both the left and right subtrees must also be binary search trees.</li>
</ul>

Given the function <code>def is_valid_bst(root: Node) -&gt; bool:</code>, return True if the binary tree is a valid BST. Otherwise, return False.

<h3>Example:</h3>

Input:

<img src="/s3/questions/9664817c-3e12-4a40-9236-8382b13f55a0.png" alt="image"/>Converted Binary Tree.png

Output:

<pre tabindex="0" class="chroma"><code>def is_valid_bst(Node(3)) -&gt; True
</code></pre>

Given the root node, verify if a binary search tree is valid or not.

Binary Tree Validation

Given two strings, <code>string1</code> and <code>string2</code>, write a function <code>is_subsequence</code> to find out if <code>string1</code> is a subsequence of <code>string2</code>.

Bonus: A subsequence is a sequence that can be derived from another sequence by deleting some elements without changing the order of the remaining elements.

Example:

Input:

<pre tabindex="0" class="chroma"><code>string1 = &#39;abc&#39;
string2 = &#39;asbsc&#39;
string3 = &#39;acedb&#39;

is_subsequence(string1, string2) -&gt; True
is_subsequence(string1, string3) -&gt; False
</code></pre>

Let’s say you’re interning at a fintech startup that’s building a platform for online games of chance. During testing, one of your simulations flips a coin 10 times and gets 8 tails and 2 heads.

How would you determine if the coin is fair, and what statistical approach would you use to support your conclusion?

How would you assess if a coin is fair after observing 8 tails in 10 flips?

Fair Coin

Probability

You are given a binary tree of unique positive numbers. Each node in the binary tree is represented as a dictionary with the following keys:

<ul>
<li><code>data</code>: integer value stored in the node</li>
<li><code>left</code>: reference to the left child (or <code>None</code>)</li>
<li><code>right</code>: reference to the right child (or <code>None</code>)</li>
</ul>

<pre tabindex="0" class="chroma"><code>node = {
 &#34;data&#34;: 6,
 &#34;left&#34;: {
 &#34;data&#34;: 3,
 &#34;left&#34;: {...},
 &#34;right&#34;: {...}
 },
 &#34;right&#34;: {
 &#34;data&#34;: 9,
 &#34;left&#34;: {...},
 &#34;right&#34;: {...}
 }
}
</code></pre>

Given two node values as input (<code>value1</code> and <code>value2</code>), write a function to return the value of the nearest common ancestor (lowest node in the tree that has both nodes as descendants).

Note: If one of the nodes doesn’t exist in the tree, return <code>-1</code>.

Example:

Input:

<pre tabindex="0" class="chroma"><code># Diagram of the binary tree
&#39;&#39;&#39;
 6 
 / \ 
 3 9 
 / \
 2 11
 / \
 5 8
&#39;&#39;&#39;
value1 = 8
value2 = 2
</code></pre>

Output:

<pre tabindex="0" class="chroma"><code>common_ancestor(root,value1,value2) -&gt; 3
</code></pre>

Explanation:

<ul>
<li>Ancestors of <code>8</code>: <code>11 → 3 → 6</code></li>
<li>Ancestors of <code>2</code>: <code>3 → 6</code></li>
<li>Common ancestors: <code>3</code> and <code>6</code></li>
<li>The nearest common ancestor is <code>3</code>.</li>
</ul>

Write a function to return the value of the nearest node that is a parent to both nodes.

Nearest Common Ancestor

Let’s say you’re in a supermarket.

You’ve found out that there is a huge discount on some items you want; unfortunately, you only have one bag with a certain <code>bag_capacity</code>. Each of the items has its own <code>value</code> and <code>capacity</code>, stored in lists called <code>values</code> and <code>capacities</code> contained in a dictionary called <code>items</code>.

Write a function to pick the items that maximize the total value without exceeding the bag’s capacity and return the total value.

Note: You can’t take more than one copy of each item home. Also, you do not need to fill the entire bag to capacity.

Example:

Input:

<pre tabindex="0" class="chroma"><code>items = {
 &#34;values&#34;:[2,3,1,4],
 &#34;capacities&#34;:[2, 4, 6, 5]
}

bag_capacity = 8
</code></pre>

Output:

<pre tabindex="0" class="chroma"><code>max_profit(items,bag_capacity) -&gt; 6
</code></pre>

We choose the first and last item with a total profit of 6 and a capacity of 7, which is less than the <code>bag_capacity</code>.

Write a function to pick the items that maximize the total value without exceeding the bag’s capacity

Filling Supermarket Bag

Write a Python function called <code>group_anagrams</code> that takes a list of strings as input and returns a list of lists, where each inner list contains a group of anagrams that were present in the input list.

An anagram is a word or phrase formed by rearranging the letters of a different word or phrase, using all the original letters exactly once.

Note: Each of the inner lists should be ordered alphabetically and contain no duplicate values

<h3>Example:</h3>

Input:

<pre tabindex="0" class="chroma"><code>words = [&#34;eat&#34;, &#34;tea&#34;, &#34;tan&#34;, &#34;ate&#34;, &#34;nat&#34;, &#34;bat&#34;]
</code></pre>

Output:

<pre tabindex="0" class="chroma"><code>[ 
 [&#34;nat&#34;,&#34;tan&#34;],
 [&#34;ate&#34;,&#34;eat&#34;, &#34;tea&#34;],
 [&#34;bat&#34;]
]
</code></pre>

Explanation:

In the example, the words “eat”, “tea”, and “ate” are anagrams of each other, as are the words “tan” and “nat”. The word “bat” does not have any anagrams in the input list, and therefore is listed on its own. The function then groups the anagrams together and returns a list of lists representing these groups.

Each of the lists representing a group of anagrams is sorted in alphabetical order.

Identify the groups of anagrams in a list of words

Groups of Anagrams

Write a Python function called <code>longest_increasing_subsequence</code> that takes a list of integers as input and returns as output the length of the longest increasing subsequence in the list.

Note: An increasing subsequence is a subset of a list where the elements are in strictly increasing order. The subsequence does not have to be contiguous or unique.

<h3>Example:</h3>

Input:

<pre tabindex="0" class="chroma"><code>nums = [10, 9, 2, 5, 3, 3, 7, 101, 18]
</code></pre>

Output:

<pre tabindex="0" class="chroma"><code>4
</code></pre>

Explanation:

The longest increasing subsequence is <code>[2, 3, 7, 101]</code>, for a total length of 4.

Find the longest increasing subsequence in a list of integers.

Longest Increasing Subsequence

You are given two non-empty linked lists representing two non-negative integers. Each list contains a single number, where each item in the list is one digit. The digits are stored in reverse order.

Task: Add the two numbers and return the sum as a linked list, also with the digits in reverse order. You may assume the two numbers do not contain any leading zeros, except the number 0 itself.

Example 1:

Input:

<pre tabindex="0" class="chroma"><code>l1 = 2-&gt;4-&gt;3-&gt;null
l2 = 5-&gt;6-&gt;4-&gt;null
</code></pre>

Output:

<pre tabindex="0" class="chroma"><code>addTwoNumbers(l1, l2) = 7-&gt;0-&gt;8-&gt;null
</code></pre>

Explanation: 342 + 465 = 807.

Example 2:

Input:

<pre tabindex="0" class="chroma"><code>l1 = 0-&gt;null
l2 = 0-&gt;null
</code></pre>

Output:

<pre tabindex="0" class="chroma"><code>addTwoNumbers(l1, l2) -&gt; 0-&gt;null
</code></pre>

Explanation: 0 + 0 = 0.

In this problem, we are given two linked lists representing two non-negative integers, with each item in the list holding one digit. The digits are stored in reverse order, and each of their nodes contains a single digit. We are required to add the two numbers and return the sum as a linked list.

Radix Addition

Given a list of integers, identify all the duplicate values in the list. Assume that the list can contain both positive and negative numbers, and the order of the list does not matter. A number is considered a duplicate if it appears more than once in the list. Return a list of the duplicate numbers.

Example 1:

Input:

<pre tabindex="0" class="chroma"><code>nums = [1, 2, 3, 1, 2, 3]
</code></pre>

Output:

<pre tabindex="0" class="chroma"><code>find_duplicates(nums) -&gt; [1, 2, 3]
</code></pre>

The numbers 1, 2, and 3 all appear more than once in the list, so they are considered duplicates.

Example 2:

Input:

<pre tabindex="0" class="chroma"><code>nums = [1, -1, 2, 3, 3, -1]
</code></pre>

Output:

<pre tabindex="0" class="chroma"><code>find_duplicates(nums) -&gt; [-1, 3]
</code></pre>

The numbers -1 and 3 both appear more than once in the list, so they are considered duplicates. Note that the order of the output does not matter.

Example 3:

Input:

<pre tabindex="0" class="chroma"><code>nums = [1, 2, 3, 4, 5]
</code></pre>

Output:

<pre tabindex="0" class="chroma"><code>find_duplicates(nums) -&gt; []
</code></pre>

None of the numbers in the list appear more than once, so there are no duplicates.

This problem involves identifying duplicate numbers in a list of integers. The function should return a list of the duplicate numbers.

Find Duplicate Numbers in a List

Given a string <code>str</code> of any length, write an algorithm <code>max_repeating</code> to return which character has the longest string of continuous repetition.

If two characters are tied for most continuous repetition, return the character whose longest continuous repetition occurs earliest in <code>str</code>.

Example 1:

Input:

<pre tabindex="0" class="chroma"><code>str = &#39;aabbaaccbbbaa&#39;
def max_repeating(str) -&gt; b
</code></pre>

Example 2:

Input:

<pre tabindex="0" class="chroma"><code>str = &#39;adccccbbbbc&#39;
def max_repeating(str) -&gt; c
</code></pre>

Write an algorithm to return the character with the longest continuous repetition, breaking ties by earliest occurrence

Most Repetition

Given an array and a target integer, write a function <code>sum_pair_indices</code> that returns the indices of two integers in the array that add up to the target integer. If not found, just return an empty list.

Note: Can you do it on \(O(n)\) time?

Note: Even though there could be many solutions, only one needs to be returned.

Example 1:

Input:

<pre tabindex="0" class="chroma"><code>array = [1 2 3 4] 
target = 5 
</code></pre>

Output:

<pre tabindex="0" class="chroma"><code>def sum_pair_indices(array, target) -&gt; [0 3] or [1 2]
</code></pre>

Example 2:

Input:

<pre tabindex="0" class="chroma"><code>array = [3]
target = 6 
</code></pre>

Output:

<pre tabindex="0" class="chroma"><code>Do NOT return [0 0] as you can&#39;t use an index twice.
</code></pre>

Given an array and a target integer, write a function that returns the indices of two integers in the array that add up to the target integer.

Target Indices

Implement Dijkstra’s shortest path algorithm for a given graph with a known source node.

A graph format is a dictionary of nodes as key and the value is a dictionary of neighbors to that node with the distance between them as follow.

Note: set the previous node of the source node to <code>None</code>.

Example:

Input:

<pre tabindex="0" class="chroma"><code>
source_node = &#39;A&#39;

graph = {
 &#39;A&#39;: {
 &#39;D&#39;: 1,

 },
 &#39;B&#39;: {
 &#39;A&#39;: 6,
 &#39;D&#39;: 2,
 &#39;E&#39;: 2,
 &#39;C&#39;: 5
 },
 &#39;C&#39;: {
 &#39;B&#39;: 5,
 &#39;E&#39;: 5
 },
 &#39;D&#39;: {
 &#39;A&#39;: 1,
 &#39;B&#39;: 2,
 &#39;E&#39;: 1
 },
 &#39;E&#39;: {
 &#39;C&#39;: 5,
 &#39;B&#39;: 2
 }

 }


</code></pre>

Output:

<pre tabindex="0" class="chroma"><code>
output_table = {
 &#39;A&#39;: {
 &#39;ShortestDistance&#39;: 0,
 &#39;PreviousVertex&#39;: None

You’re given a list of sorted integers in which more than 50% of the list is comprised of the same repeating integer.

Write a function to return the median value of the list in \(O(1)\) computational time and space.

Note: the lists are all non-empty

Example:

Input:

</code></pre>

Output:

<pre tabindex="0" class="chroma"><code>median(li) -&gt; 2
</code></pre>

You’re given <code>numlists</code>, a list where each element is a list of at least five numbers.

Write a function <code>list_fifths</code> that returns a list of the fifth-largest number from each element in <code>numlists</code>. Return the list in ascending order.

Example:

Input:

<pre tabindex="0" class="chroma"><code>numlists = [ [1,2,3,4,5], [3,1,2,5,4], [1,2,3,4,5,6,7], 
[99, 320, 400, 100.25, 55.2, 0.1] ]
</code></pre>

Output:

<pre tabindex="0" class="chroma"><code>def list_fifths(numlists) -&gt; [1, 1, 3, 55.2]
</code></pre>

Write a function list_fifths that returns the fifth-largest number from each list in numlists in ascending order

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…

This question requires the implementation of the Fibonacci sequence using three different methods: recursively, iteratively, and using memoization.

window_size = 3
</code></pre>

Output:

<pre tabindex="0" class="chroma"><code>def moving_window(input, window_size) -&gt; [1, 1.5, 2, 3, 4, 5]

One of the basic steps in parsing string inputs is to check whether the opening and closing characters or tags match, i.e., to check if each opened parenthesis is closed eventually.

Given a list of strings, write a <code>string</code> <code>parser</code> that verifies the integrity of the parenthesis used in the string. The parser should return a list of booleans stating whether that string’s integrity was verified.

Example:

Input:

<pre tabindex="0" class="chroma"><code>list_of_strings = [
 &#39;f(x) + g(x)&#39;, 
 &#39;sin(exp(x)}&#39;, 
 &#39;((())just some string)&#39;, 
 &#39;(4,{(3,4):x**2)&#39;]
</code></pre>

Output:

<pre tabindex="0" class="chroma"><code>def string_parser(list_of_strings) -&gt; [True, False, True, True]
</code></pre>

Given a list of strings, verify whether the parentheses in each string are properly opened and closed.

Given a string, write a function to determine if it is palindrome or not.

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.

Example:

Input:

<pre tabindex="0" class="chroma"><code>word1 = &#34;tree&#34;
word2 = &#34;radar&#34;
</code></pre>

Output:

<pre tabindex="0" class="chroma"><code>def is_palindrome(word1) -&gt; False
