Interview questions [2]
Question 1
Q1. Given a string of characters, find duplicate adjacent characters and remove them. The result should be the string without any duplicate adjacent characters.
Ex: given string - “aabc”
Output - “bc”
The second question was similar to the first to rearrange the characters if in a string they are adjacent to each other. There must not be no two same adjacent characters. If there is no way to rearrange, return an empty string.
Ex: given string - ‘aabbbcda’
Output- ‘abcbdaba’
