An array that has 8 bit slots but is storing 12 bit integers, so position zero stores the first eight bits of the integer, and the first 4 bits of position one store the last 4 bits. The second 4 bits of position one store the highest bits in the second integer and position two stores the lowest 8 bits and so on. Devise a way to read these numbers from the array (in C)

I would rather not disclose any interview questions. I will say that half the questions I got were very personalized, while the other half are similar to the ones you can find online... Know your algorithms, data structures, and design patterns. My networks, information security, databases, compilers, and finite state automata knowledge came in handy as well.

Write a function that computes the number of connected components in a binary matrix, where cells with "1" are nodes and adjacent nodes (including diagonal) are considered connected. Now modify the code so that two computers can be used for this computation in parallel (this was the very hard part).
