Length of last Word
Problem Statement
Given a string s consists of upper/lower-case alphabets and empty space characters' '
, return the length of last word in the string.
If the last word does not exist, return 0.
Note: A word is defined as a character sequence consists of non-space characters only.
Link to GitHub : CodeGiven s = "Prathap Kudupu", return 6.
Solution
- The result is the difference between the length of the string and and index of empty space
public static int optimum(String s) { return s.trim().length()-s.trim().indexOf(' ')-1; }

Student Attendance Record I
Problem Statement
You are given a string representing an attendance record for a student. The record only contains the following three characters:- 'A' : Absent.
- 'L' : Late.
- 'P' : Present.
A student could be rewarded if his attendance record doesn't contain more than one 'A' (absent) or more than two continuous 'L' (late).
You need to return whether the student could be rewarded according to his attendance record.

Largest Uncommon Sequence 1
Problem Statement
Given a group of two strings, you need to find the longest uncommon subsequence of this group of two strings. The longest uncommon subsequence is defined as the longest subsequence of one of these strings and this subsequence should not be any subsequence of the other strings.
A subsequence is a sequence that can be derived from one sequence by deleting some characters without changing the order of the remaining elements. Trivially, any string is a subsequence of itself and an empty string is a subsequence of any string.
The input will be two strings, and the output needs to be the length of the longest uncommon subsequence. If the longest uncommon subsequence doesn't exist, return -1.
Valid Palindrome
Problem Statement
Given a string, determine if it is a palindrome, considering only alphanumeric characters and ignoring cases.
Example:
Note:
"A man, a plan, a canal: Panama" is a palindrome. "race a car" is not a palindrome.
Note:
Have you consider that the string might be empty? This is a good question to ask during an interview.
For the purpose of this problem, we define empty string as valid palindrome.
Solution
Link to GitHub python:Code1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 | def isPalindrome(s): head,tail=0,len(s)-1 while head < tail: while head <tail and not s[head].isalnum(): head+=1 while head <tail and not s[tail].isalnum(): tail-=1 if s[head].lower() != s[tail].lower(): return False head+=1; tail-=1 return True isPalindrome("bob bob") |
Link to GitHub JavaScript: Code
- We need 2 pointers head and tail
- Head is the initial position and tail is the last position in the array
- Increment the header if we do not find valid character .Decrement the tail if we do not find the valid character.
- Loop through the array till we find tail is greater than head
- Return false if header character is not equal to tail
public static boolean get(String str) { //if string is empty return true if(str.isEmpty()) { return true; } int head =0, tail=str.length()-1; //loop through the strings to find if it is a valid palindrome while(head <= tail) { //Increment the header if the character isLetter or digit if(!Character.isLetterOrDigit(str.charAt(head))){ head++; } //Decrement the tail if the character isLetter or digit else if(!Character.isLetterOrDigit(str.charAt(tail))){ tail--; } else { if(Character.toLowerCase(str.charAt(head))
!=Character.toLowerCase(str.charAt(tail))) { return false; } head++; tail--; } } return true; }

Given a string containing just the characters '('
, ')'
, '{'
, '}'
, '['

, determine if the input string is valid.
The brackets must close in the correct order,
"()"
and "()[]{}"
are all valid but "(]"

Detect Capitol
Given a word, you need to judge whether the usage of capitals in it is right or not.
We define the usage of capitals in a word to be right when one of the following cases holds:
- All letters in this word are capitals, like "USA".
- All letters in this word are not capitals, like "leetcode".
- Only the first letter in this word is capital if it has more than one letter, like "Google".

Number of Segments in a String
Count the number of segments in a string, where a segment is defined to be a contiguous sequence of non-space characters.
Please note that the string does not contain any non-printable characters.
Example:
Input: "Hello, my name is John" Output: 5

Reverse String II
- Given a string and an integer k, you need to reverse the first k characters for every 2k characters counting from the start of the string.
- If there are less than k characters left, reverse all of them.
- If there are less than 2k but greater than or equal to k characters, then reverse the first k characters and left the other as original.

Two Sum II - Input array is sorted
Problem Statement
Given an array of integers that is already sorted in ascending order, find two numbers such that they add up to a specific target number.
The function twoSum should return indices of the two numbers such that they add up to the target, where index1 must be less than index2. Please note that your returned answers (both index1 and index2) are not zero-based.
You may assume that each input would have exactly one solution and you may not use the same element twice.
Input and Output
Input and Output
Input: numbers={2, 7, 11, 15}, target=9 Output: index1=1, index2=2

Maximum SubArray
Problem Statement
Find the contiguous subarray within an array (containing at least one number) which has the largest sum.
For example, given the array
the contiguous subarray
Link to GitHub: Code
[-2,1,-3,4,-1,2,1,-5,4]
,the contiguous subarray
[4,-1,2,1]
has the largest sum = 6

Majority element
Problem Statement
Given an array of size n, find the majority element. The majority element is the element that appears more than⌊ n/2 ⌋
times.
You may assume that the array is non-empty and the majority element always exist in the array.
I/P : 3 3 4 2 4 4 2 4 4 O/P : 4 I/P : 3 3 4 2 4 4 2 4 O/P : NONE

Testing tools for WCAG accessibility test
Contrast ratio checker
The contrast ratio is a property of a display system, defined as the ratio of the luminance of the brightest color (white) to that of the darkest color (black) that the system is capable of producing. A high contrast ratio is a desired aspect of any displayWe enter background color on ther right and text color on the right. It would give a text value
It gives the contrast ratio for those colors
Guidelines specifies 4.5 to 1 min contrast ratios for text sizes 14 pt bold =18.7 pixel

Tips for making your web site WCAG compliant
These are some of the tips for making sure that our site is WCAG compliant
- Label all form elements
- Provide alternate text for non-text content. This would help people who are blind with assistance technology which can announce to them.People who are blind can use screen readers like
- VoiceOver is inbuilt in mac
- NVDA and JAWS has to be downloaded for windows
- Chrome browser has chromevox
- We need to make sure that color contrast meets minimum thresholds. There are guidelines for threshold
- Add dots to end of important color message
- Add captions to audio content
- Based on the guidelines we need to make sure that we have the ratio for the contrast for all the colors in our website
- Use aria guidelines as mentioned in the link http://www.prathapkudupublog.com/2017/05/overview-of-wcag.html

Promises in JavaScript
Promises
Promises in JavaScript are like promises in real life- A promise can only succeed or fail once
- It cannot succeed or fail twice, neither can it switch from success to failure or vice versa
- If a promise has succeeded or failed, we later add a success/failure callback. The correct callback will be called, even though the event took place earlier
Closures in JavaScript
A closure is an inner function that has access to the outer (enclosing) function’s variables—scope chain. The closure has three scope chains: it has access to its own scope (variables defined between its curly brackets), it has access to the outer function’s variables, and it has access to the global variables.
