C++ Easy Interview Questions

Print out the prime numbers between 1 and 100. As a first pass, don't worry about writing an efficient algorithm. Just write clear code that is easy to follow. Once you've done that, consider different possible optimizations.

Write a program to print out a multiplication table, from 1x1 to 12x12. This should look like:

   1   2   3   4   5   6   7   8   9  10  11  12
   2   4   6   8  10  12  14  16  18  20  22  24
   3   6   9  12  15  18  21  24  27  30  33  36
   4   8  12  16  20  24  28  32  36  40  44  48
   5  10  15  20  25  30  35  40  45  50  55  60
   6  12  18  24  30  36  42  48  54  60  66  72
   7  14  21  28  35  42  49  56  63  70  77  84
   8  16  24  32  40  48  56  64  72  80  88  96
   9  18  27  36  45  54  63  72  81  90  99 108
  10  20  30  40  50  60  70  80  90 100 110 120
  11  22  33  44  55  66  77  88  99 110 121 132
  12  24  36  48  60  72  84  96 108 120 132 144

Write a function that takes as input a sorted array and modifies the array to compact it, removing duplicates. Also return the new length of the array.

Notes: The input array might be very large.

For example:

  • input array = [1, 3, 7, 7, 8, 9, 9, 9, 10]
  • transformed array = [1, 3, 7, 8, 9, 10]
  • size = 6
