Microsoft Interview Questions & Answers
________________________________________
I recently visited Microsoft's Silicon Valley campus and interviewed with the Hotmail group. If you've never had a Microsoft interview, realize that they are very different than the standard interview. You won't be asked any of those questions like, "What is your greatest weakness," or, "Where do you want to be in five years?" Rather, a Microsoft interview typically contains a number of brain teasers and coding questions. In fact, you can read interview questions from my internship interviews.
Here are the questions I was asked, accompanied with the answers right below the question! So, once you reach the end of the question, don't read any further unless you want to immediately know the answer! Anyway, here goes:
Question: How could you determine if a linked list contains a cycle in it, and, at what node the cycle starts?
Answer: There are a number of approaches. The approach I shared is in time N (where N is the number of nodes in your linked list). Assume that the node definition contains a boolean flag, bVisited.
struct Node
{
...
bool bVisited;
};
Then, to determine whether a node has a loop, you could first set this flag to false for all of the nodes:
// Detect cycle
// Note: pHead points to the head of the list (assume already exists)
Node *pCurrent = pHead;
while (pCurrent)
{
pCurrent->bVisited = false;
pCurrent = pCurrent->pNext;
}
Then, to determine whether or not a cycle existed, loop through each node. After visiting a node, set bVisited to true. When you first visit a node, check to see if the node has already been visited (i.e., test bVisited == true). If it has, you've hit the start of the cycle!
bool bCycle = false;
pCurrent = pHead;
while (pCurrent && !pCycle)
{
if (pCurrent->bVisited == true)
// cycle!
pCycle = true;
else
{
pCurrent->bVisited = true;
pCurrent = pCurrent->pNext;
}
}
A much better approach was submitted by 4Guys visitor George R., a Microsoft interviewer/employee. He recommended using the following technique, which is in time O(N) and space O(1).
Use two pointers.
// error checking and checking for NULL at end of list omitted
p1 = p2 = head;
do {
p1 = p1->next;
p2 = p2->next->next;
} while (p1 != p2);
p2 is moving through the list twice as fast as p1. If the list is circular, (i.e. a cycle exists) it will eventually get around to that sluggard, p1.
Thanks George!
________________________________________
Question: How would you reverse a doubly-linked list?
Answer: This problem isn't too hard. You just need to start at the head of the list, and iterate to the end. At each node, swap the values of pNext and pPrev. Finally, set pHead to the last node in the list.
Node * pCurrent = pHead, *pTemp;
while (pCurrent)
{
pTemp = pCurrent->pNext;
pCurrent->pNext = pCurrent->pPrev;
pCurrent->pPrev = temp;
pHead = pCurrent;
pCurrent = temp;
}
________________________________________
Question: Assume you have an array that contains a number of strings (perhaps char * a[100]). Each string is a word from the dictionary. Your task, described in high-level terms, is to devise a way to determine and display all of the anagrams within the array (two words are anagrams if they contain the same characters; for example, tales and slate are anagrams.)
Answer: Begin by sorting each element in the array in alphabetical order. So, if one element of your array was slate, it would be rearranged to form aelst (use some mechanism to know that the particular instance of aelst maps to slate). At this point, you slate and tales would be identical: aelst.
Next, sort the entire array of these modified dictionary words. Now, all of the anagrams are grouped together. Finally, step through the array and display duplicate terms, mapping the sorted letters (aelst) back to the word (slate or tales).
________________________________________
Question: Given the following prototype:
int compact(int * p, int size);
write a function that will take a sorted array, possibly with duplicates, and compact the array, returning the new length of the array. That is, if p points to an array containing: 1, 3, 7, 7, 8, 9, 9, 9, 10, when the function returns, the contents of p should be: 1, 3, 7, 8, 9, 10, with a length of 5 returned.
Answer: A single loop will accomplish this.
int compact(int * p, int size)
{
int current, insert = 1;
for (current=1; current < size; current++)
if (p[current] != p[insert-1])
{
p[insert] = p[current];
current++;
insert++;
} else
current++;
}
Happy Programming!
Perhaps you have heard that when Microsoft interviews potential employees, the ask them a series of mind-benders. Having recently experienced a Microsoft interview, let me assure you the rumors are indeed true. Here are some of the questions that the four of us were asked when interviewed by MS:
• You are given a scale which you are to use to measure eight balls. Seven of these balls have the same weight: the eigth ball is heavier than the rest. The scale does not indicate the weight of a particular object; it is a scale which tells you which of the two sides being weighed is heavier (like the scale that lady of justice statue holds up). So, for example you could place one ball on each end of the scale. If ball one was heavier than ball two, it would tip in ball one's direction; if ball two were heavier, it would tip io ball three's direction; if the balls were of equal weight, the scale would not tip at all. What is the minimum number of weighs you could perform to find the heaviest of the eight balls?
• Imagine, now, that you have seven balls of unknown weight, given that six are of the same weight, and the seventh is heavier than the rest. Using the same scale as described above, what is the minimum number of weights you could perform to find the heaviest of the seven balls?
• Imagine that you have 26 constants, labelled A through Z. Each constant is assigned a value in the following way: A = 1; the rest of the values equal their position in the alphabet (B corresponds to the second position so it equals 2, C = 3, etc.) raised to the power of the preceeding constant value. So, B = 2 ^ (A's value), or B = 2^1 = 2. C = 3^2 = 9. D = 4^9, etc., etc. Find the exact numerical value to the following equation:
(X - A) * (X - B) * (X - C) * ... * (X - Y) * (X - Z)
• Write C code to implement atoi
• And fimally, the hum-dinger: There are four people who need to cross a bridge at night. The bridge is only wide enough for two people to cross at once. There is only one flashlight for the entire group. When two people cross, they must cross at the slower member's speed. All four people must cross the bridge in 17 minutes, since the bridge will collapse in exactly that amount of time. Here are the times each member takes to cross the bridge:
• Person A: 1 minute
• Person B: 2 minutes
• Person C: 5 minutes
• Person D: 10 minutes
So, if Person A and C crossed the bridge initally, 5 minutes would elapse, because Person C takes 5 minutes to cross. Then, Person A would have to come back to the other side of the bridge, taking another minue, or six minutes total. Now, if Person A and D crossed the bridge next, it would take them 10 minutes, totalling to 16 minutes. If A came back, it would take yet another minute, totally 17... the bridge would collapse with A and B on the wrong side. How can all four people get across the bridge within 17 minutes? Note: there is no trick-answer to this problem. You can't do tricky stuff like throwing the flashlight back from one end of the bridge to the other. This problem can be solved!

• Here are the answers to the Microsoft Interview Questions.
• You are given a scale which you are to use to measure eight balls. Seven of these balls have the same weight: the eigth ball is heavier than the rest. The scale does not indicate the weight of a particular object; it is a scale which tells you which of the two sides being weighed is heavier (like the scale that lady of justice statue holds up). So, for example you could place one ball on each end of the scale. If ball one was heavier than ball two, it would tip in ball one's direction; if ball two were heavier, it would tip io ball three's direction; if the balls were of equal weight, the scale would not tip at all. What is the minimum number of weighs you could perform to find the heaviest of the eight balls?
Answer: You can do this in 2 weighs. Put three balls on each side of the scale. That's a total of six balls you're weighing. If the three balls on each side weigh equally, you know that one of the two remaining balls is the heaviest. Weigh those two balls to determine which one is heaviest. If, however, one of the three ball combinations weighs most, remove all balls from the scale, then weigh just two of the three "heavier" balls. If those two balls are equal weight, the third, unweighed ball is the heaviest; otherwise the scale will indicate which of the two balls on the scale is the heavy one.

(X - A) * (X - B) * (X - C) * ... * (X - Y) * (X - Z)
Answer: Well, since we have a series of products here, X - X will soon be reached, which will equate to zero. Throwing zero into a product results in an answer of zero. So, the answer is zero. Easy, eh? :)

Microsoft
Hi All,
I attended the Microsoft GSC test on
15th at Mumbai.
The paper was easy except the programming question
part which was very lengthy compared to the time
alloted.
I m giving below the paper pattern. I m not very good
at remembering the questions exactly so i m just
giving the overview of the test.
There were four sections. All were separate. The time
alloted as well as the question papers also were
separate for each section.
Section I : English language test - 25 Qstns.- 20
Mints.
It contained usual & easy english language qustns.
like prepositions, articles, antonyms-synonyms etc.
There were two paragraphs. One was about types of
networks & another was about CGI scripting. There were
some easy qstns. asking info. from the para.
Section II : Mental ability - 25 Qstns.- 30 Mints.
It contained qstns. related to union & intersection
like there r N no. of students in a class, S no. of
them passed in 3 subjects, T no. of them passed in 2
subjects & U no. of them passes in all subjects, what
no. of students failed in all subjects.
Another type of qstns. were related to cubes, like
there is a cube, one side of it is painted with blue
color, the opposite side is painted with yellow color,
now it is cut into 16 cubes of equal size, now how
many cubes r having blue color at one side & no color
at its adjucent side, how many cubes r having no color
at any side etc.
Then there were qstns. like if + means -, * means /, -
means *, / means +, then which of the following is
true ; there were four options. Each having some
calculation like 12+8-3*5/32=13. We have to select the
option having the correct calculation.
Most of the questions were similar to the above
mentioned patterns.
Section III : Aptitude test - 20 Qstns.- 20 Mins.
This section contained qstns. exactly like those asked
in the Bank PO, Railways & UPSC exams. Its different
from usual apti. qstns.
E.g. which two of the following are same : 11225689 :
11225986 : 11225689.
Then Data sufficiency qstns. like statement 1 is
sufficient to get the answer, both 1 & 2 needed,
neither 1 nor 2 can give the answer etc.
Then Condition checking qstns. like there is a
recruitment of clerk. Some conditions r given like the
candidate should be graduate with 60%, his age should
be less then 30 years, typing speed should be atleast
45 wpm. etc.
Based on this we have to answer a perticular candidate
will be selected or not given his details.
Then Some simple & usual riddles like Ram goes to 5 km
east, then 5 km south, then west, now in which
direction he is. Then a man pointing to a photo says
he is the son of my grandmothers' son like that.
Section IV : Programming - C & DFS OR VB - 40 Qstns.-
30 Mins.
U can choose either C & DFS paper or VB paper. I chose
C & DFS.
This was the toughest part bcoz qstns. were lengthy &
time was very short. Both C & DFS qstns. were almost
equal. Most of the C qstns. were asking about the
output of the given code. The DFS qstns. were about
link list, array, queue & also the graph theory.
This section demands a thorough preparation of C & DFS
& Graph theory.
MICROSOFT
The paper had three sections(I am not sure about the names of the sections, but the times are
correct, trust me!)
Verbal ability 25 qs 20 mts
Mental ability 25 qs 30 mts
Aptitude 20 qs 20 mts
If you just want to go thru the questions, just look at ‘Ã ’
The first section had basic English qs like use of prepositions, articles and two passages (both
windows related):
à The first one was about RAM, and how Windows assigns a bit of RAM to each process and
what happens in the case of multi-processing and all that.
à The second one was about DLL (Dynamic Linked Library) files and how they get an operation
done.
These passages were followed by a set of questions which were simple if you carefully read the
passage. My advice is that you better read the passages first clearly and only then start to answer
the questions that follow. If you try to jump off in the middle to answer, you’ll only end up
confused(because the choices given are such). That wraps up this section.
The second section mainly had questions involving union and intersection, for example:
à There are 2500 people in a club. 800 were drinkers, 1250 were smokers and 400 were both
drinkers and smokers. The number of teetotalers?
There was not much variation from question to question; I mean all were more or less of the
same pattern.
And there were cube-based problems:
à A child was given to paint a cube with the following conditions:
White should face down.
Black and blue should be on the opposite faces.
Golden should be up.
..and some more like this. This was followed by a set of questions which were simple and direct.
The second one was a toughie.
à The cube again, with some conditions for colours. It is cut into two halves parallel to the black
faced plane. The first half is cut into 4 equal cubes. And the second part into 32 equal cubes.
The questions were:
Number of cubes with at least one face coloured.
Number of cubes with no face coloured.
Number of cubes which have green on one of their faces.
And some more(this was the last question in the section so I couldn’t get to all).
1. A man crosses a circle of perimeter 35 m in 44 sec and he runs a hexagon of 42 m side. In how many second he finishes the complete perimeter of the hexagon.
2. A+b do a work in 6 days. A+c do the work in 10 days, c+a in 7.5 days. How many

11. Which is greater 2^300 or 3^200?
12. Average age of 24 students is 36. When the age of teacher is added the average age is increased by 1 year. What is the age of the teacher?
13. Water and milk are mixed in the ratio 2:1,5:3 and 9:4.when all the mixtures of equal volume are mixed together what is the ratio water and milk in the resulting solution.
14. Average rate of five orange and four apples is 12 and 7 orange and 8 apples are 86. Find the total rate of 24 orange and 24 apples.
15. In how many ways the letters in the word MANAGEMENT can be arranged such that A’s does not come together.
16. A give B a start of 20 sec and leads by 20m. When he starts off 25 sec he finishes at the same time. What is the speed of A. (wordings not sure).
17. An array of integer is given. Write a pseudo code to find the sub array with the largest sum.
18. A string is given. Write an algorithm to implement the backspace from the end of the string. The string contains 1 byte and 2-byte character. For 1 byte char first bit is 0 and for 2 byte char first bit is 1.

What is a semaphore?
A semaphore is a protected variable (or abstract data
type) and constitutes the classic method for restricting
access to shared resources (e.g. storage) in a
multiprogramming environment
The value of a semaphore is the number of units of the
resource which are free. (If there is only one resource,
a "binary semaphore" with values 0 or 1 is used.)
The P operation busy-waits (or maybe sleeps) until a
resource is available, whereupon it immediately claims
one.
V is the inverse; it simply makes a resource available
again after the process has finished using it.
Init is only used to initialize the semaphore before any
requests are made. The P and V operations must be
atomic, which means that no process may ever be
preempted in the middle of one of those operations to
run another operation on the same semaphore.

RE: Technical test Questions
What is a deadlock?How will you avoid it?
Deadlock is a situation where a group of process competes for a particular
resource and acquires it partially. This is the position when none of the
process can complete its work.
It can be avoided using the deadlock avoidance algorithm.
