Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Leetcode questions
1. Similar to the number of islands problem
2. Array manipulation
disappointing. I asked for a delay, and did not get a reply. I only got answered after 3 months that it was not relevant. I'm still confused and don't understand why there was no reply, Thinking about trying again, maybe second time is lucky.
