[broken quail]

yeah def focus on the operating principles they give you for behavioral

[serene briar]

aight thx

shit gotta lock in

[broken quail]

yup fs and the technical should be on hackerrank in which you can run your code/tests ofc after you dry run and such

my technical problem was pretty chill too https://leetcode.com/problems/valid-parentheses/description/ a variation of this with a list of expressions being able to replace certain ending brackets with and open and close to balance then you had to say given this amount of replacements for this specific expression is this a balanced thing for the different expressions

but yeah i think you should be good if you can do easys and easier mediums and even then just explain yourself well

[serene briar]

ah aight ty bro

[broken quail]

yup you got it

[serene briar]

yooo i got this question too 😭

it was < and > and a maxreplacement array, so 2 arrays as inputs and then checking if u can make it balanced

[broken quail]

Yeah sht mb

I should have have more info

There is an optimized approach where you just count

[serene briar]

nah i got it

[broken quail]

But stack is valid

[serene briar]

i think counting

O(n*m) i think

nah interviewer was tripping tho

[broken quail]

O(1) space

[serene briar]

oh

[broken quail]

Like no stack

[serene briar]

i had O(n) i think

[broken quail]

Two counters

Yup

Oh wait

[serene briar]

[broken quail]

No you good
