I want to prepare mysef for some programming contest. I have been solving few problems based on arrays and loops. I would like to solve more complicated problems based on these area.

I would be grateful if you know any good lists of problems that are really crucial and/or teach useful new techniques, as I am stuck momentarily. I have read the results on Google for ACM algorithms and such, so a personal response would be a lot more appreciated :).
Thank you a lot!| Flag | PURGE - 0 Answers Europe vs US
Dear all,
- pablo.ghiglino September 01, 2015
I am reading "Cracking the Coding Interview" at the moment. I am based in Switzerland and
I would like to ask if anyone here have any insights of what might differ in the application process in Europe with respect to the US.
I mean not only from the interview questions point of view, but also from the CV one.
I come from a finance sector background where, for example, lengthy CVs are appropriate (as opposed to shorter formats). But I am not sure if this also applies to companies like Google or Amazon in their European offices.
Any information will be highly appreciated.
Thanks,

Now I have a Amazon SDE offer on my plate (Level 1). Should I quit my current job and accept Amazon's offer?
From salary stand point there is no comparison, my current salary just a half of Amazon's base salary.

Problem : There is a hill and few taps are present, all connected to other taps above/below, find which tap will be the last one to get water from a spring on the top of the mountain.
- Saurabh2816 August 05, 2015
My Approach : Now I understand this is a connected graph problem. And by doing Breadth First Traversal we can get the last tap which will get the water.
Doubt : 1. Is my solution correct? If yes, then does BFT always gives the right answer? 2. Is there any other approach I'm not seeing?| Flag | PURGE - 0 Answers Need help regarding php/zend interview next week

Hey everybody,
- Teddy C July 18, 2015
I'm preparing for my interviews at Google & Facebook and into practicing with others. I couldn't find any practice buddies because my friends are not looking for jobs at the moment.
So, I'm looking for practice buddies for Skype / Google Hangout mock interviews.
I'm usually available around the evening hours in the Pacific time zone. Hit up the comments if interested!| Flag | PURGE - 1 Answer I am writing code in ruby and using each loop

Following is problem 5.7 (under Bit Manipulation) in the 5th edition of Cracking the coding interview:
- shahsunny712 May 14, 2015
An array A[1..n] contains all the integers from 0 to n except for one number which is missing. In this problem, we cannot access an entire integer in A with a single opera-tion. The elements of A are represented in binary, and the only operation we can use to access them is “fetch the jth bit of A[i]”, which takes constant time. Write code to find the missing integer. Can you do it in O(n) time?
The algorithm applied is this:
1. Start with LSB.
2. Count occurrence of 1's vs 0's.
If count(1) < count(0) it means the missing number has a 1 as it's LSB, else it has a 0.
3. Remove all numbers with LSB not matching result found in step 3.
4. Repeat steps 1 to 4, and progressively checking the next LSB in each iteration.
Can someone explain the logic behind step 3? It basically removes all odd/even numbers from the current list (depending on the bit found for the missing number) and uses the modified list in the next iteration. Why do we do this?| Flag | PURGE
