Question 1
Over hacker rank the person interviewing me asked me to create a program, that will manage several stocks and information pertaining them. The input to the program was a steady stream of data containing company name, share volume and share value. The application was suppose to take this stream and calculate certain values for which I was given equations. I had to organize the data by company, and each company needed to have its own values.
