Given a string expression of numbers and operators, return all possible results from computing all the different possible ways to group numbers and operators. You may return the answer in any order. The test cases are generated such that the output values fit in a 32-bit integer and the number of different results does not exceed 104. For example: If the input is expression = 2-1-1 The expected output is [0,2] Because: ((2-1)-1) = 0 (2-(1-1)) = 2 If the input is expression = 23-45 The expected output is [-34,-14,-10,-10,10] Because: (2(3-(45))) = -34 ((23)-(45)) = -14 ((2(3-4))5) = -10 (2((3-4)5)) = -10 (((23)-4)5) = 10 Constraints: 1 <= expression.length <= 20 expression consists of digits and the operator '+', '-', and '*'. All the integer values in the input expression are in the range [0, 99]. The integer values in the input expression do not have a leading '-' or '+' denoting the sign.

Let's say a developer doesn't agree that a reported bug is actually a bug. How would you handle this situation? Be specific. For example, imagine you're a QA engineer, and you find that a button on a webpage is slightly misaligned in a specific browser. You log this as a bug, but the front-end developer says it's 'within acceptable tolerances' and refuses to fix it. Or, perhaps a back-end developer claims that a specific edge-case error is so rare it's not worth the effort to address, even though you believe it violates the product's stated reliability goals. What steps would you take to resolve the disagreement while maintaining a positive working relationship and ensuring product quality? Consider the different approaches you could take based on the severity and impact of the potential bug.
