You are given an array of numbers. You need to print the length of the maximum continuous sequence that you encounter. For example if input is [3,8,10,1,9,6,5,7,2 ], the continuous sequences are{1,2,3} and {5,6,7,8,9,10} the latter is the longest one so the answer becomes 6. O(n) solution was asked for, assuming you have a hash map which supports O(1) insertion and fetching operations

Given a string of numbers, you can interpolate basic operations (+, -, * and /) to create an equation that can be evaluated using simple math. Given a string of numbers and a value, write a method that prints all of the equations that can be generated using that string that evaluate to the given value. ex- f("323",3) will print out "3 * 2 - 3"

A few questions on basic command-line syntax in Unix shells: 1. How would you log output and error messages from a command to a file? 2. How would you run the same command on every file in a directory? 3. How would you find the PID of a named process (say if you wanted to kill it)?
