Hard Magic bag Arithmetic Sequences | Solve | ||||
Alex’s uncle is a magician who gave them a magic bag in which coins get doubled each time you put those coins into it. Initially, Alex had few coins with them. So, Alex put all the coins, and the coins got doubled. Alex took out all the coins and gave a few to their friend and then again put the remaining coins back in the bag. The coins doubled again; Alex took out all the coins again and gave a few coins to their second friend. Alex then put the remaining coins in the bag and the coins doubled again. Alex took out all the coins and gave a few coins to their third friend. There were no coins left with Alex when Alex gave coins to the third friend and Alex gave an equal number of coins to each friend. What is the minimum number of coins Alex had initially and how much did Alex give to each friend? A: Started with 3 coins B: Started with 5 coins C: Started with 6 coins D: Started with 7 coins E: Started with 9 coins F: Gave 3 coins in every turn G: Gave 4 coins in every turn H: Gave 5 coins in every turn I: Gave 7 coins in every turn J: Gave 8 coins in every turn K: Gave 9 coins in every turn | |||||

Medium EC2DataProcessing EC2 S3 Security Groups Network ACLs | Solve | ||||
You work as a Solutions Architect for a data analysis firm. The company stores large datasets on Amazon S3, and you've been tasked with setting up an Amazon EC2 instance to process this data. The EC2 instance will fetch data from S3, process it, and then write the results back to a different S3 bucket. To ensure security, the EC2 instance should not have direct internet access, and it should only be able to communicate with the S3 buckets. You've decided to place the EC2 instance in a VPC private subnet with a CIDR block of 10.0.1.0/24. The associated security group is set to deny all inbound traffic and allow all outbound traffic. Which additional configuration should you make to enable the EC2 instance to access the S3 buckets while complying with the security requirements? A: Modify the Network ACL of the subnet to allow outbound connections to the IP range of the S3 service. B: Assign a Public IP to the EC2 instance and update the security group to allow inbound and outbound traffic to S3. C: Add a NAT Gateway in the private subnet and update the route tables to direct S3 traffic to the NAT Gateway. D: Create an S3 VPC Gateway Endpoint and update the route tables for the private subnet to direct S3 traffic to the VPC Endpoint. E: Create a VPN connection from the VPC to the S3 buckets. | |||||
Medium Visitors Count Strings Logic | Solve | ||||
A manager hires a staff member to keep a record of the number of men, women, and children visiting the museum daily. The staff will note W if any women visit, M for men, and C for children. You need to write code that takes the string that represents the visits and prints the count of men, woman and children. The sequencing should be in decreasing order. Example: Input: WWMMWWCCC Expected Output: 4W3C2M Explanation: ‘W’ has the highest count, then ‘C’, then ‘M’. ⚠️⚠️⚠️ Note: - The input is already parsed and passed to a function. - You need to "print" the final result (not return it) to pass the test cases. - If the input is- “MMW”, then the expected output is "2M1W" since there is no ‘C’. - If any of them have the same count, the output should follow this order - M, W, C. | |||||
Medium Data Filtering Report Development M Language Data Visualization | Solve | ||||
You are creating a Power BI report where users need to dynamically filter data based on a range of dates. The report has a Sales table with columns Date, ProductID, and Amount. You decide to use a Power Query parameter to allow users to select a start and end date, which will then filter the Sales table accordingly. The parameter is named DateRange and has a type of List. You need to write a Power Query M formula to filter the Sales table based on the selected date range. The DateRange parameter contains two dates: the first item is the start date, and the second item is the end date. How should the M formula be structured to achieve this functionality? A: Table.SelectRows(Sales, each [Date] >= DateRange{0} and [Date] <= DateRange{1}) B: Sales{[Date] >= DateRange{0}, [Date] <= DateRange{1}} C: Table.FilterRows(Sales, each [Date] >= List.First(DateRange) and [Date] <= List.Last(DateRange)) D: Table.SelectRows(Sales, each [Date] >= List.First(DateRange) and [Date] <= List.Last(DateRange)) E: Filter.Table(Sales, [Date] >= DateRange{0}, [Date] <= DateRange{1}) |
