What does the following Swift code output?
Easy Registration Queue Logic Queues Sorting By Custom Order	Solve
We want to register students for the next semester. All students have a receipt which shows the amount pending for the previous semester. A positive amount (or zero) represents that the student has paid extra fees, and a negative amount represents that they have pending fees to be paid. The students are in a queue for the registration. We want to arrange the students in a way such that the students who have a positive amount on the receipt get registered first as compared to the students who have a negative amount. We are given a queue in the form of an array containing the pending amount. For example, if the initial queue is [20, 70, -40, 30, -10], then the final queue will be [20, 70, 30, -40, -10]. Note that the sequence of students should not be changed while arranging them unless required to meet the condition. ⚠️⚠️⚠️ Note: - The first line of the input is the length of the array. The second line contains all the elements of the array. - The input is already parsed into an array of "strings" and passed to a function. You will need to convert string to integer/number type inside the function. - You need to "print" the final result (not return it) to pass the test cases. For the example discussed above, the input will be: 5 20 70 -40 30 -10 Your code needs to print the following to the standard output: 20 70 30 -40 -10
Medium Visitors Count Strings Logic String Parsing Character Counting	Solve
A manager hires a staff member to keep a record of the number of men, women, and children visiting the museum daily. The staff will note W if any women visit, M for men, and C for children. You need to write code that takes the string that represents the visits and prints the count of men, woman and children. The sequencing should be in decreasing order. Example: Input: WWMMWWCCC Expected Output: 4W3C2M Explanation: ‘W’ has the highest count, then ‘C’, then ‘M’. ⚠️⚠️⚠️ Note: - The input is already parsed and passed to a function. - You need to "print" the final result (not return it) to pass the test cases. - If the input is- “MMW”, then the expected output is "2M1W" since there is no ‘C’. - If any of them have the same count, the output should follow this order - M, W, C.

What topics are covered in the Swift Online Test?

Basics of Swift: Basics of Swift refers to the fundamental concepts and syntax of the Swift programming language, such as variables, constants, data types, operators, and basic control structures. This skill is measured in the test to assess a candidate's proficiency in the foundational aspects of Swift programming, which serves as a strong basis for building more complex applications.

Data Types: Data Types in Swift define the kind of values that can be stored and manipulated in variables or constants. This skill is measured in the test to evaluate a candidate's understanding of the different data types available in Swift, like integers, floats, strings, and arrays, and their usage in writing efficient and type-safe code.

Control Flow: Control Flow refers to the flow of execution within a program, determined by conditional statements, loops, and branches. This skill is measured in the test to assess a candidate's ability to effectively control the execution of their Swift code based on different conditions, making decisions and repeating actions as required.

Functions: Functions in Swift are self-contained blocks of code that perform a specific task. This skill is measured in the test to evaluate a candidate's knowledge of creating, calling, and using functions in Swift, including parameter passing, return types, and the concept of function overloading, which helps in writing modular and reusable code.

Classes and Objects: Classes and Objects are fundamental concepts in object-oriented programming. This skill is measured in the test to gauge a candidate's understanding of creating and working with classes, objects, properties, and methods in Swift, which enables building complex and organized code structures, facilitating code reuse and easy maintenance.

Optionals: Optionals represent the possibility of absence of a value in Swift. This skill is measured in the test to assess a candidate's grasp on handling optional values, unwrapping them safely, and dealing with nil scenarios, which is crucial for writing robust and bug-free code, ensuring data integrity and handling unexpected situations.

Error Handling: Error Handling in Swift is the mechanism of handling and responding to error conditions that might occur during the execution of a program. This skill is measured in the test to evaluate a candidate's knowledge of using Swift's error handling features, such as try-catch blocks, to gracefully handle errors, propagate them, or recover from them, ensuring fault-tolerant and reliable applications.

Collections: Collections in Swift, like arrays, sets, and dictionaries, enable storing and organizing multiple values into a single entity. This skill is measured in the test to assess a candidate's understanding of working with collections efficiently, including performing common operations like insertion, deletion, iteration, and accessing elements, which are essential skills in almost all non-trivial programming tasks.

Closures: Closures are self-contained blocks of functionality that can be passed around and used within Swift code. This skill is measured in the test to gauge a candidate's knowledge of closures, including their syntax, capturing values from the surrounding context, and their usage in scenarios like asynchronous programming or functional programming paradigms, which is indispensable for writing concise and flexible code.

Concurrency: Concurrency in Swift is the ability of a program to execute multiple tasks simultaneously. This skill is measured in the test to evaluate a candidate's understanding of using Swift's concurrency mechanisms like concurrent queues, dispatch groups, and async/await to write efficient, scalable, and responsive code that can handle concurrent execution and synchronization correctly.

Read more about the proctoring features.

How do I interpret test scores?

The primary thing to keep in mind is that an assessment is an elimination tool, not a selection tool. A skills assessment is optimized to help you eliminate candidates who are not technically qualified for the role, it is not optimized to help you find the best candidate for the role. So the ideal way to use an assessment is to decide a threshold score (typically 55%, we help you benchmark) and invite all candidates who score above the threshold for the next rounds of interview.

What experience level can I use this test for?

Each Adaface assessment is customized to your job description/ ideal candidate persona (our subject matter experts will pick the right questions for your assessment from our library of 10000+ questions). This assessment can be customized for any experience level.

Does every candidate get the same questions?

Yes, it makes it much easier for you to compare candidates. Options for MCQ questions and the order of questions are randomized. We have anti-cheating/ proctoring features in place. In our enterprise plan, we also have the option to create multiple versions of the same assessment with questions of similar difficulty levels.
