They gave me the below question to solve in 30 mins. Based on customer research, we know that our guests get confused when they are searching for accommodation and they found multiple hotels with the same name in the same city. To avoid this, we want to create a tool to identify "confusing" cities: cities with at least 3 hotels with the same name. Given a list of tuples (hotel_id, hotel_name, city) return a list of all "confusing" cities. Input: [ {hotel_1234, "Sheraton", "Amsterdam"} , {hotel_1000, "Sheraton", "Buenos Aires"} , {hotel_1001, "Hilton", "Amsterdam"} , {hotel_1002, "Royal Palace", "Bogota"} , {hotel_1003, "Hilton", "Amsterdam"} , {hotel_1004, "Sheraton", "Buenos Aires"} , {hotel_1005, "Sheraton", "Buenos Aires"} ] Output: [ "Buenos Aires" ]

Consider a stack of N number of cards which are piled up and in facing down. Each card has a unique number from the range 1 to N. The card is stacked in such a way that it exhibits the following behavior: Take the first card and put it under the stack without revealing. Now the next card on the top will have the number 1 on it. Next take 2 cards one after the other and put is under the stack without revealing. Yes you guessed it right - the next card on the top will reveal a value of 2. This goes on. Eg. for such a series : 9,1,8,5,2,4,7,6,3,10 [for N=10] Write a program to generate such a series for a given N number of cards so that this behavior can be exercised.
