How do you implement a Depth-First Search (DFS) traversal on a graph, and what are the time and space complexities involved?

Data Structures & AlgorithmsMedium

Given a graph represented as an adjacency list, write a function to perform a Depth-First Search (DFS) traversal starting from a given node. The function should print each visited node. Also, provide an example graph and demonstrate how your function would traverse it. Explain the time and space complexity of your solution. For example, consider the following graph: { 0: [1, 2], 1: [2], 2: [0, 3], 3: [3] } If we start the DFS traversal from node 2, the expected output would be: 2, 0, 1, 3 (or another valid DFS traversal order). Your function should: Take the graph (adjacency list) and a starting node as input. Implement DFS traversal. Print each visited node. Correctly handle cycles to avoid infinite loops. Analyze and state the time and space complexity of your implementation.

How would you design an elevator system for a 20-story building considering various factors and edge cases?

System DesignMedium

Elevator System Design Design an elevator system for a 20-story building. Consider the following: Number of Elevators: How many elevators would you recommend, and why? Elevator Capacity: What should be the capacity (in terms of weight and number of people) of each elevator? Algorithm for Request Handling: Describe an algorithm for efficiently handling elevator requests, considering factors like minimizing wait times and energy consumption. Example: Should the elevator always go to the closest floor first, or should it consider the direction of travel? Edge Cases and Error Handling: How would you handle edge cases such as: Elevator malfunction? Power outage? Overweight elevator? Simultaneous requests from multiple floors? Optimization: How can you optimize the system for peak hours (e.g., morning rush hour, lunch break)? Consider strategies like: Designating specific elevators for up/down travel during peak times. Implementing a learning system that adapts to usage patterns. User Interface: Describe the user interface (both inside the elevator and on each floor) and how it provides feedback to users. Scalability: How would the design change for a 50-story or 100-story building? What are the limitations of your current design? Explain your design choices and justify them with appropriate reasoning. Focus on creating a robust, efficient, and user-friendly elevator system.
