Disclaimer

This is throw-away code that is only supposed to correctly get the job done. I used the code stubs provided by HackerRank, so don't mind the unnecessary imports, naming convention and so on. Feel free to use my solutions as inspiration, but please don't literally copy the code.

Certificates

To get a certificate, two problems have to be solved within 90 minutes.

The following is an incomplete list of possible problems per certificate as of 2021.09.15. Please let me know if the certificate problems have changed, so I can put a note here.

• Problem Solving (Basic)
  • Active Traders
  • Balanced System Files Partition
  • Longest Subarray
  • Maximum Cost of Laptop Count
  • Nearly Similar Rectangles
  • Parallel Processing
  • Password Decryption
  • Road Repair
  • String Anagram
  • Subarray Sums
  • Unexpected Demand
  • Usernames Changes
  • Vowel Substring
• Problem Solving (Intermediate)
  • Bitwise AND
  • Equalizing Array Elements
  • File Renaming
  • Hotel Construction
  • Largest Area
  • Maximum Subarray Value
  • Nice Teams
  • Sorted Sums
  • Task of Pairing
  • User-Friendly Password System

Besides the solutions, there are Python 3 and C++ code stubs and some test cases so you can first try to solve the problems without time pressure if you want to.

• Verify correctness of Nice Teams.
