Zoho Coding Questions

Coding is one of the most important sections in Zoho. Here are some questions, based on the pattern and difficulty level of the Previous Year’s Zoho Coding Questions.

Zoho coding questions

Question 1

Your task is to complete a function “count_heads()” that takes two inputs N and R. The function should return the probability of getting exactly R heads on N successive tosses of a fair coin. A fair coin has an equal probability of landing a head or a tail (i.e. 0.5) on each toss.

Example 1

  • Input: 1 1
  • Output: 0.500000

Example 2

  • Input: 4 3
  • Output: 0.250000
Run 
#include<bits/stdc++.h>
using namespace std;
 
double comb(int n,int r)
{
    if(r==0) return 1;
    return n*comb(n-1,r-1)/r;
}
int main()
{
   int n,r;
   cin>>n>>r;
   cout<<comb(n,r)/(1<<n);
}
Run 
import java.util.*;
class Main
{
public static int fact(int n)
{
  if(n==0)
   return 1;
  return n*fact(n-1);  
 }
public static double count_heads(int n, int r)
{
    double res;
    res = fact(n) / (fact(r) * fact(n - r));
    res = res / (Math.pow(2, n));
    return res;
}

public static void main(String[] args)
{
   Scanner sc=new Scanner(System.in);
   int n=sc.nextInt();
   int r=sc.nextInt();
   System.out.println(count_heads(n,r));
}
}
Run 
def comb(n, r):
    if r==0:
        return 1
    return n*comb(n-1, r-1)/r
    
n, r = map(int, input().split())
print(comb(n,r)/(1<<n))

Question 2

Write a program that will print the sum of diagonal elements of a 10X10 matrix. The program will take a total of 100 numbers as input (10 numbers will be input per line and each number will be separated by a space).

Example 1

  • Input:    1  2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 0 
                   0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 0
                   3 4 5 6 7 8 9 6 4 0
                   2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 3 2
                   3 4 5 6 7 4 3 2 1 3
                   3 4 5 6 2 4 4 2 4 6
                   2 3 4 6 2 4 6 2 3 5
                   2 3 5 6 2 4 6 2 3 5
                   2 4 6 2 1 4 3 3 5 2
                   3 3 5 2 4 6 2 1 4 6
  • Output:  42

Example 2

  • Input:   1 22 33 44 55 66 77 88 99 100
                  100 1 88 77 66 55 44 33 22 11
                  88 88 1 66 55 44 33 22 11 100
                  88 77 66 1 44 33 22 11 100 99
                  77 66 55 44  1 22  11 88 99 100
                  66 55 44 33 22 1 77 88 99 100
                  44 33 22 11 100 99 1 77 66 55
                  33 22 11 100 99 88 77 1 55 44
                  22 11 100 99 88 77 66 55 1 33

for i in range(10):
    l=list(map(int,input().split()))
    L.append(l)
    sum+=L[i][i]
print(sum)

Question 3

Write a program that will take one string as input. The program will then remove vowels a, e, i, o, and u (in lower or upper case ) from the string. If there are two or more vowels that occur together then the program shall ignore all of those vowels.

        s1+=s[i]
 
    print(s1)

Question 4

Question 6

Write a program that will take a number as input. The program will convert the inputted number to a format, which will contain an integer part and a fraction part. The fraction part needs to be reduced to its lowest representation. The input will not contain any repeating decimals e.g. 1.3333…33. The output will be :

The integer part of the number ++fraction using a ’/’

Question 8

Write a program that takes an integer M and M integer array elements as input. The program needs to find the minimum difference between two elements in the integer array. The program then needs to print all those pairs of elements that have the minimum difference. If more than one pair has the minimum difference, then the program should print the output in the ascending order, if an element exists in two or more pairs, then it should be printed two times or more.

Example 1

  • Input: 4
               55 44 33 22
  • Output:  22 33 33 44 44 55
  • Explanation: The minimum difference between two elements is 11. Hence the pairs are printed in the ascending order. Here 33 and 44 appear in two different pairs; hence both are printed twice.

Example 2

  • Input: 5
               1 99 22 44 1001
  • Output:  1 22

Question 10

Write a program that receives a word A and some texts as input. You need to output the texts (without modifying them) in the ascending order of the number of occurrences of the word A in the texts. The input is as follows: an integer M(between 1 and 100, inclusive), followed by the word A in the next line, and some text in each of the M next lines.

Note: The texts and the word A contain only lowercase Latin letters (a,b,c…,z) and blank spaces (“ ”). The maximum size of the texts and the word A is 100 Characters. Every text has a different number of occurrences of the word A.

Note 2:you must print one text per line without modifying the texts.

  • Input: 2
               Java
                I hate java 
                Python is a good programming language
