Round 3: Coding Problems
Questions:
- 2 coding problems, each worth 85 marks, with a duration of 35 minutes for each.
- The coding environment was reported to be problematic, not displaying output correctly.
Problem 1:
- Description: A robot must diffuse n bombs on a field while covering the minimum distance. The robot diffuses the leftmost and topmost bomb closest to its current position.
- Test case:
7 10 20 20 30 30 40 5 10 5 20 10 5 10 10
Problem 2:
- Description: Given n pairs of coordinates, mark the area between those pairs and return the final marked area.
- Test case:
2 2 4 7 7 4 2 5 8
Candidate's Approach
For Problem 1, the approach involved:
- Storing coordinates in a vector of pairs and sorting it to find the minimum distance from the topmost and leftmost bombs.
- Calculating the Euclidean distance between the coordinates.
The candidate faced issues with the compiler and could not complete the solution.
For Problem 2, the candidate successfully marked the area based on the coordinates and counted the marked area.
