Hi Neelesh,

I just need one set of dimensions with the base being >50 units, the height is either + or – 1 the base and the length should be an integer in either case.

Hope this helps!

Cheers,
Krishna

“The chef wants a conical roof for his kitchen with base>50, height = base +-1 and length being an integer. Find the dimensions.”

so the length is an integer in both cases (height = base+1 and height = base-1) or atleast one case?

Hi Anil,
The base diameter > 50 units, the height = base diameter +- 1 and the length which is the slant height needs to be an integer.

Let me know in case you need anything else.

.
What is meant by base ? ( base radius ?? )
What is meant by length ? ( slant height?? )

- Thank you

Hi Neelesh,

By mirror image of a number below 1000 I mean that digit on the extreme left change places with the digit on the extreme right. For instance 12 & 21, 437 & 734 etc.

Hope this clears things. Let me know in case you have any other issues.

Cheers,
Krishna

Need clarification for Day-3 Q1:

- What is meant by mirror image? Where is the mirror placed? top, bottom, left, right, vertically below or vertically above?
- How are the numbers written? For example is nine written like 9 or g or q ? Same as for 1, 2, 4 etc?

Hi Anil,

All the 3 assumptions that you mentioned are right.
* The Chef needs to move to the opposite corner of the grid.
* He can move only on the edges of each rectangular cell of the grid
* The Chef doesn’t want to backtrack. He can visit each cell only once.

Let me know in case you need anything else.

Cheers,
Krishna
