speaking of dp problems I remember getting this problem on an OA before but I wasn't able to solve it, anyone have any ideas on what a possible solution approach would look like: "maximum subarray for max size k"? my idea was the standard kadane's algo for "max subarray" LC question and then try and decrement the window size when u reach size k
tawny nimbus
ur gonna have to provide more context than that
sinful locust
UNDER REVIEW
soft basin
thats not dp bruv
vernal furnace
subarray length <= k
soft basin
thats just simple sliding window
vernal furnace
but can't u theorectically decrement the subarray to get a max subarray smaller than size k?
tawny nimbus
just start with size k
and as u move the window over
subtract left
add right
until u get to the end
o(n)
vernal furnace
until u get to the end
maybe my algo was wrong on the OA then, that's the approach I took as well
tawny nimbus
u prob had some small errors
vernal furnace
thats just simple sliding window
it's kadanes algo, and that's dp btw
tawny nimbus
someone correct me if im wrong
its not kadanes algo
kadanes algo is for max subsequence
vernal furnace
soft basin
it's kadanes algo, and that's dp btw
it was given subarray of size k
if no subarray of size k then its kadanes
soft basin
ngl i always did that problem with sliding window
vernal furnace
kadanes algo means ur using the prev as a add on
yes
soft basin
i didnt think it was dp
tawny nimbus
u dont do that with the problem on ur oa
hard to see the difference ig
but they're not the same
well
ig u could use kadanes
its not kadane enough for me to call it anything more than sliding window tho
spark hearth
2 dollars i get portal update today
o my u looking lovely today my hon
tawny nimbus
kadane i think of length of subsequence, not sum of it

@woven quest recruiter just redirected me to the onboarding email thing rip
she didnt say anything about that, just told me to ask the onboarding people
yes

hallow scroll
looks like theres a chance juster no amazon
noooo

soft basin
idk if it would work
hallow scroll
we'll see when onboarding replies ig if they told you they will let us in a month then ig we'll be fine in a month
sinful locust
its mad ez tho
it shouldnt count as dp
sadage
wait theres a separate application for winter?
i thoguht it was all in one
vernal furnace
its mad ez tho
here is a potential subarray: [2,-7,3,-6,-4,9], maximum subarray length is 3, what would the approach to adding to the window be? since the negatives decrease the total and the max is just 3 as in the value
hallow scroll
wait theres a separate application for winter?
nah its all in one or whatever
sinful locust
whats the waiting a month thing then
hallow scroll
i think its just too early for the onboarding people to start putting people in winter idk
vernal furnace
u could do a sliding window / kadane but the since the negatives decrement the total how would u add?
that was the main issue I had with the problem since the "max subarray" could be a subset of the "k" the max theoretical length of a subarray
soft basin
here is a potential subarray: [2,-7,3,-6,-4,9], maximum subarray length is 3, wh...
for the current window find the max between the window or the current value
bc it can be a continuous sequence of negative numbers
vernal furnace
for the current window find the max between the window or the current value
u start with 2, u don't add -7 since it decreases
soft basin
then 2 would be the max sum
sinful locust
here is a potential subarray: [2,-7,3,-6,-4,9], maximum subarray length is 3, wh...
u just choose the biggest value for currsum and then update maxsum
lemme code it up
ive solved this q so many times
vernal furnace
I can't remember all test cases but what abt a scenario where the next number u added increased the total value but u lost the contiguous subarray since u disregarded the negative?
sinful locust
u only update window if cur sume is negative
vernal furnace
lemme code it up
that's not needed tbh, no stress
sinful locust
then u just update to 0
soft basin
int largest = nums[0];
int current = nums[0];
for(int i = 1; i < nums.length; i++){
current = Math.max(nums[i], current + nums[i]);
largest = Math.max(largest, current);
}
return largest;```def lol(arr):
currsum = arr[0]
maxsum = currsum
for i in range(1, len(arr)):
currsum = max(currsum + arr[i], arr[i])
maxsum = max(currsum, maxsum)
return maxsum

lmao
based
and noodle are on the same brain wave
vernal furnace
hmm that's template kadanes algo
soft basin
ive coded this up from memory
sinful locust
hmm that's template kadanes algo

oh

sinful locust
ew
vernal furnace
Lol nw, tbh half of the issue is I don’t remember the exact wording of the question I just remember where I was making an error, I found it hard on that OA to get kadanes to work on a subset of a sub array without losing the previous values since the value of k could be greater than what I’m checking

you think then they do manual code review of OAs?
because i think I had the right ideas, the Qs were just so annoying in their I/O format
they had a graph pathing problem where you had to return your input as a list of north south east and west
just needlessly complicated, a 2D array would have been way easier
again I didnt find it that hard but especially with Java data structures adding levels of needless nonsense makes it harder for me to do it in the time limit
honestly i'd go for python
I wish i was better with python java data structures are pretty annoying

it says that it's meant to "properly reflect candidates' skills instead of their test taking abilities" online
but having a coding assessment in the first place assesses test taking abilities
i'd rather do a coding assessment with an in person interviewer so that I can tell them my thought process and get hints
i feel like that better assesses skills

they do after the oa
they just dont have the resources to interview every candidate
