Find the length of the longest strictly increasing subsequence in an array of integers. Describe your approach and its complexity, considering edge cases. Provide examples to illustrate your solution. How would the approach handle edge cases such as an empty array, or an array with only one element, impacting complexity and efficiency of the approach taken? What is the time and space complexity of your solution? Provide the results for the sample arrays `[1, 3, 2, 4, 5]` and `[10, 9, 2, 5, 3, 7, 101, 18]` to ensure proper functionality of your function, by returning 4 in both test cases. This will ensure a good understanding of increasing subsequences in a sequence of numbers in an array, while testing for a well-defined approach that is efficient to use with a variety of test data sets. This showcases proficiency in algorithmic thinking and problem-solving skills by handling an array of integers to find the longest length of a strictly increasing subsequence while addressing edge cases that may arise from the sample data set used in this test case. It shows a deep understanding of the problem, as well as the ability to articulate, plan and design a proper solution to provide the right output for each test case provided in this simulated scenario. This emphasizes the importance of code quality and readability, alongside accuracy of the algorithm to assess for proficiency in the related subject matter of programming and computer science principles that are essential for the role being assessed during this interview process. This would ensure your approach is robust and adaptable to different datasets, showcasing a solid understanding of data structures and algorithms and best practices for writing clean and efficient code for software development tasks that require these skills on the job daily in a multitude of projects throughout different teams as well as departments that handle data sets of different formats for various software being implemented across platforms where these are deployed for specific functions that relate to them to facilitate the development process for various user needs and requirements in the long run over the years in the industry with current trends using similar coding techniques at this stage or level of sophistication regarding different paradigms applicable here according to what can be adopted as far as current resources permit at any given point along the timeline for improvements that are needed in relation with available funds at the moment etcetera, to keep things viable for longer-term sustainability within market forces at this juncture given whatever competing forces might impact profitability.

Data Structures & AlgorithmsHard

Let's simulate a coding interview scenario. I'd like you to solve a problem and articulate your thought process as you go. Imagine you're given an array of integers. Your task is to write a function that finds the length of the longest strictly increasing subsequence in that array. A strictly increasing subsequence is a sequence of numbers from the array such that each number is greater than the previous one, and their original order in the array is maintained. For example, in the array [1, 3, 2, 4, 5], one possible increasing subsequence is [1, 2, 4, 5], and the longest increasing subsequence is [1, 2, 4, 5], which has a length of 4. Another possible increasing subsequence is [1, 3, 4, 5] which has length of 4. Your function should return 4 in this case. Another example is [10, 9, 2, 5, 3, 7, 101, 18]. The longest increasing subsequence is [2, 3, 7, 18], which has a length of 4. Your function should return 4. Can you describe your approach and then implement the function? Consider edge cases, like an empty array or an array with only one element. How would your approach handle those? What is the time and space complexity of your solution?

How would you assign ACLs to users or groups?

System DesignMedium

Let's discuss Access Control Lists (ACLs). Imagine you're designing a system where you need to control access to various resources. How would you approach assigning ACLs to users and groups? Be specific. For example, consider a scenario with files, directories, and applications. How would you define permissions (read, write, execute, delete) and associate them with individual users (like 'john.doe') or groups (like 'developers' or 'administrators')? What different strategies would you evaluate for managing ACLs, and what are the tradeoffs between them in terms of security, performance, and ease of administration? For example, would you use an identity-based approach, a role-based approach, or a combination of both? Consider also how you would handle inheritance of ACLs in a hierarchical structure, such as a file system. How would you prevent privilege escalation and ensure that users only have the access they need? Finally, how would you audit ACL changes and monitor access attempts to detect potential security breaches?
