Print odd even number using 2 threads

 


So we have 2 thread, one will be printing odd numbers and others will be printing even number. We have to print them in a synchronized fashion. 


class Lock {

    Boolean isOdd;

    Lock(Boolean odd) {

        this.isOdd = odd;

    }

    synchronized void print(Integer number) {

        Boolean numberEven = number %2 == 0;

        while (isOdd == numberEven) {

            try {

                wait();

            } catch( InterruptedException e) {

               Thread.currentThread().interrupt();

            }

        }

        System.out.println(number);

        isOdd = !isOdd;

        notify();

    }

}


class PrintThread extends Thread{


  Integer limit; 

  Integer value;

  Lock lock;

  PrintThread( Integer start,Integer limit, Lock lock) {

     this.value = start;

     this.limit = limit;

this.lock = lock;

  } 

  

  public void run() {

   while( value < limit ) {

           lock.print(value);

   value +=2;

   

    }

  }

}


public class Test {

 static public void main(String args[]) {

 

    Lock lock = new Lock(false);

PrintThread oddThread = new PrintThread(1,10, lock);

PrintThread evenThread = new PrintThread(0,10, lock);

evenThread.start();

oddThread.start();

  }

}

Car Parking Problem

There is n parking slots and n-1 car already parked. Lets say car parked with initial arrangement and we want to make the car to be parked to some other arrangement. Lets say n = 5, inital = free, 3, 4, 1, 2 desired = 1, free, 2, 4 ,3 Give an algorithm with minimum steps needed to get desired arrangement. Told by one of my friend and after a lot of search i really got a nice solution. I will post solution in comment part

DEShaw Interview Questions

ther are N numbers frm 1 to N and starting from index 1 we will keep deleting every alternate going in cyclic order with array. Only one element will be left at the end. Tell us the index of element in array we started. e.g. there are 5 nums 1 2 3 4 5 then after 1st iteration 1 3 5 will be remained. .. then 1 will be next to be elliminated and then 5 3 will remain alone... give sum efficient algorithm to calculate which numer will remain at the end Answer: 2*(n-2^p)+1 where p=floor(log2 n)

Scaling application

 We all wish that our application used by maximum people on Earth. To make sure we have the right scalable application, please follow below guidelines  1. Load balancing at all level of application i.e. web server, application server and DB server 2. Remote caching to be enabled for a fast response.  3. Load balancer will equally distribute the traffic to existing servers, what if enough capacity is not enough. We should have a mechanism to increase the server capacity (esp horizontally ).  All the cloud service provider has provision for autoscaling, so do Kubernetes.  Use them.  4. Most of the NoSQL DB comes with good support for horizontal scalability. So if you chosse NoSQL you can easily scale them. But if your application requires RDBMS (SQL) then plan should be with sharding in place.  5. Server should be stateless. Any server should be able to serve an incoming request. No local storage, no IP binding. Having said newly added server will start ...
