In a village, people build houses in the same side of the road. A thief plans to loot the village. He wants maximum amount of money without having any risk of getting caught. By some means, the villagers know that their adjacent house is being looted or not and thus they become alert. So the thief cannot loot contiguous two houses. Given that the thief knows the amount of money stored in each house and the road is straight and there is no turning, which is the most efficient algorithmic strategy to solve this problem?

"Suppose that in a C program snippet, followings statements are used.
i) sizeof(int);
ii) sizeof(int*);
iii) sizeof(int**);
Assuming size of pointer is 4 bytes and size of int is also 4 bytes, pick the most correct answer from the given options.

"Assume int is 4 bytes, char is 1 byte and float is 4 bytes. Also, assume that pointer size is 4 bytes (i.e. typical case):
char *pChar;
int *pInt;
float *pFloat;
sizeof(pChar);
sizeof(pInt);
sizeof(pFloat);"

A program attempts to generate as many permutations as possible of the string, 'abcd' by pushing the characters a, b, c, d in the same order onto a stack, but it may pop off the top character at any time. Which one of the following strings CANNOT be generated using this program?

"From a group of seven undergraduate students (A, B, C, D, E, F, and G), four will be selected to give a presentation to the students' union. The following conditions must be met:
- Either A or B must be selected, but A and B cannot both be selected.
- Either E or F must be selected, but E and F cannot both be selected.
- E cannot be selected unless C is selected.
- G cannot be selected unless B is selected.
If we know that F is not selected to present, how many different groups of four can be made, following the above criteria?"

"A university library budget committee must reduce exactly five of eight areas of expenditure—G, L, M, N, P, R, S, and W—in accordance with the following conditions:
If both G and S are reduced, W is also reduced.
If N is reduced, neither R nor S is reduced.
If P is reduced, L is not reduced.
Of the three areas L, M, and R, exactly two are reduced. If both M and R are reduced, which one of the following is a pair of areas neither of which could be reduced?"

"Seven piano students—T, U, V, W, X, Y, and Z—are to give a recital, and their instructor is deciding the order in which they will perform. Each student will play exactly one piece, a piano solo. In deciding the order of performance, the instructor must observe the following restrictions:

X cannot play first or second.
W cannot play until X has played.
Neither T nor Y can play seventh.
Either Y or Z must play immediately after W plays.
V must play either immediately after or immediately before U plays.

If V plays first, which one of the following must be true?"

"A charitable foundation awards grants in exactly four areas—medical services, theater arts, wildlife preservation, and youth services—each grant being in one of these areas. One or more grants are awarded in each of the four quarters of a calendar year. Additionally, over the course of a calendar year, the following must obtain:

Grants are awarded in all four areas.
No more than six grants are awarded.
No grants in the same area are awarded in the same quarter or in consecutive quarters.
Exactly two medical services grants are awarded.
A wildlife preservation grant is awarded in the second quarter.

If a wildlife preservation grant and a youth services grant are awarded in the same quarter of a particular calendar year, then any of the following could be true that year EXCEPT:"

"On a particular Saturday, a student will perform six activities—grocery shopping, hedge trimming, jogging, kitchen cleaning, laundry, and motorbike servicing. Each activity will be performed once, one at a time. The order in which the activities are performed is subject to the following conditions:

Grocery shopping has to be immediately after hedge trimming.
Kitchen cleaning has to be earlier than grocery shopping.
Motorbike servicing has to be earlier than laundry.
Motorbike servicing has to be either immediately before or immediately after jogging.

Which one of the following, if substituted for the condition that motorbike servicing has to be earlier than laundry, would have the same effect in determining the order of the student’s activities?"

"If all beaches were publicly owned, we would have to rely on government funds to maintain them. It is true that more people would have access to the ocean and beaches, but at what cost? If the beaches are not cared for adequately, soon there will be nothing left worth having access to. We should consider carefully before nationalising more coastal property. Which of the following, if true, would most weaken the argument above?"
