On a chessboard represented as 8 X 8 grid we are given the position of Bishop in form of row and column position. The goal is to find the total number of squares that Bishop can visit in one move. We know the Bishop can move in all directions (diagonally left up/down and right up/down).For ExampleInputrow = 5, column = 4OutputCount of total number of squares that can be visited by Bishop in one move are: 13ExplanationAs shown in above figure the squares that Bishop can cover are 9.Inputrow = 1, column = 1OutputCount of total number of squares that ...

Given a score of runs. The goal is to reach that score in a way that the batsman can take either 1 or 2 runs only in a single ball. The restriction is that no 2 runs can be taken consecutively. For example, to reach the given score 6, one can take runs like: 1+2+1+2 but not 2+2+1+1 or any other way with two consecutive 2’s.For ExampleInputscore=4OutputCount of ways to reach a score using 1 and 2 with no consecutive 2s are: 4ExplanationThe ways in which we can reach the score 4 in following ways: 1+1+1+1, 1+1+2, 1+2+1, 2+1+1Inputscore=5OutputCount of ...

Given two numbers num and power as input. The goal is to find the ways in which num can be represented as a sum of unique natural numbers raised to the given power. If num is 10 and power is 2 then we can represent 10 as 12+32. So total 1 way.For ExampleInputnum=30OutputCount of ways to express a number as sum of powers are: 2ExplanationThe ways in which we can express 30 as sum of powers: 12 + 22 + 52 and 12 + 22 + 32 + 42Inputnum=35OutputCount of ways to express a number as sum of powers are: ...

Given an integer n as input. The goal is to find the number of ways in which we can represent ‘num’ as the sum of two or more consecutive natural numbers. For example, if n is 3 it can be represented as sum ( 1+2 ) so total 1 way.For ExampleInputnum=6OutputCount of ways to express a number as sum of consecutive numbers are: 1ExplanationThe ways in which we can express ‘num’ as sum of consecutive natural numbers: 1+2+3Inputnum=19OutputCount of ways to express a number as sum of consecutive numbers are: 1ExplanationThe ways in which we can express ‘num’ as sum ...

Given an integer n as input. The goal is to find the number of ways in which we can represent ‘n’ as the sum of odd integers. For example, if n is 3 it can be represented as sum ( 1+1+1 ) and (3) so total 2 ways.For ExampleInputn=6OutputCount of ways to express ‘n’ as sum of odd integers are: 8ExplanationThe ways in which we can express ‘n’ as sum of odd integers − 1. 1+1+1+1+1+1 2. 3+1+1+1 3. 1+3+1+1 4. 1+1+3+1 5. 1+1+1+3 6. 3+3 7. 1+5 8. 5+1Inputn=9OutputCount of ways to express ‘n’ as sum of odd integers ...

Given an integer N as input for a number of chords in a circle with 2*N end points. The goal is to count the ways in which we can divide that circle using such chords so that no chord intersects with each other.For N=3, points will be 6, 1 way of getting 3 chords is between 1−2, 3−4, 5−6Other ways −1−6, 2−5, 3−4 1−2, 3−6, 4−5 1−4, 2−3, 5−6 1−6, 2−3, 4−5Total 5 ways.For ExampleInputN=4OutputCount of ways to divide circle using N non-intersecting chords are: 14ExplanationThere will be a total 8 points between which we can draw chords. After drawing ... Read More

Given an integer number as input. The goal is to find the number of trailing zeroes in the factorial calculated for that number. A factorial of a number N is a product of all numbers in the range [1, N].We know that we get a trailing zero only if the number is multiple of 10 or has a factor pair (2, 5). In all factorials of any number greater than 5, we have a number of 2s more than 5s in prime factorization of that number. Dividing a number by powers of 5 will give us the count of 5s ... Read More

Given two numbers start and end representing a range. The goal is to find the count of Unary numbers existing between [ start, end ].We can check if the number is Unary by following steps: If we take a number 13 then 12 + 32 = 10, then 12 + 02 = 1 So the ultimate sum in this way is 1 so 13 is unary.For ExampleInputstart=1 end=20OutputCount of Unary Numbers in a Range are: 5ExplanationThe numbers are : 1, 7, 10, 12, and 13Inputstart=50 end=100OutputCount of Unary Numbers in a Range are: 7ExplanationThe numbers are − 59, 63, 67, ...
