SAP Placement Papers 2025 - actual questions & solutions

This section contains practice questions styled on SAP placement papers 2025 (recent-cycle pattern), with worked solutions. Use them as timed sectional drills - from student reports drives vary by college and role, so treat this as a high-signal practice bank, not an official paper dump.

Question 1: merge two sorted lists

Show solution

Problem Statement: Merge two sorted linked lists and return a new sorted list.

Example:

Input: 1→2→4 , 1→3→4
Output: 1→1→2→3→4→4

Solution (Java):

public ListNode mergeTwoLists(ListNode a, ListNode b) {
    ListNode dummy = new ListNode(0), cur = dummy;
    while (a != null && b != null) {
        if (a.val <= b.val) { cur.next = a; a = a.next; }
        else { cur.next = b; b = b.next; }
        cur = cur.next;
    }
    cur.next = (a != null) ? a : b;
    return dummy.next;
}

Time Complexity: O(n + m)
Space Complexity: O(1)

Question 2: rotate array right by k

Show solution

Problem Statement: Rotate the array to the right by k steps.

Example:

Input: [1,2,3,4,5,6,7], k = 3
Output: [5,6,7,1,2,3,4]

Solution (Java):

public void rotate(int[] nums, int k) {
    k %= nums.length;
    reverse(nums, 0, nums.length - 1);
    reverse(nums, 0, k - 1);
    reverse(nums, k, nums.length - 1);
}
void reverse(int[] a, int l, int r) {
    while (l < r) { int t = a[l]; a[l++] = a[r]; a[r--] = t; }
}

Time Complexity: O(n)
Space Complexity: O(1)

Question 3: binary tree level order

Show solution

Problem Statement: Return the level-order traversal of a binary tree.

Example:

Input: [3,9,20,null,null,15,7]
Output: [[3],[9,20],[15,7]]

Solution (Java):

public List<List<Integer>> levelOrder(TreeNode root) {
    List<List<Integer>> res = new ArrayList<>();
    if (root == null) return res;
    Queue<TreeNode> q = new ArrayDeque<>();
    q.add(root);
    while (!q.isEmpty()) {
        int sz = q.size();
        List<Integer> level = new ArrayList<>();
        for (int i = 0; i < sz; i++) {
            TreeNode n = q.poll();
            level.add(n.val);
            if (n.left != null) q.add(n.left);
            if (n.right != null) q.add(n.right);
        }
        res.add(level);
    }
    return res;
}

Time Complexity: O(n)
Space Complexity: O(n)

Question 4: reverse a string

Show solution

Problem Statement: Given a string, return it reversed.

Example:

Input: "placement"
Output: "tnemecalp"

Solution (Java):

public String reverse(String s) {
    return new StringBuilder(s).reverse().toString();
}

Time Complexity: O(n)
Space Complexity: O(n)

Question 5: check palindrome

Show solution

Problem Statement: Return true if the string reads the same forward and backward (ignore case).

Example:

Input: "Level"
Output: true

Solution (Java):

public boolean isPalindrome(String s) {
    s = s.toLowerCase();
    int i = 0, j = s.length() - 1;
    while (i < j) {
        if (s.charAt(i++) != s.charAt(j--)) return false;
    }
    return true;
}

Time Complexity: O(n)
Space Complexity: O(1)

Question 6: longest common prefix

Show solution

Problem Statement: Find the longest common prefix string amongst an array of strings.

Example:

Input: ["flower","flow","flight"]
Output: "fl"

Solution (Java):

public String longestCommonPrefix(String[] strs) {
    if (strs.length == 0) return "";
    String pref = strs[0];
    for (int i = 1; i < strs.length; i++) {
        while (!strs[i].startsWith(pref)) {
            pref = pref.substring(0, pref.length() - 1);
            if (pref.isEmpty()) return "";
        }
    }
    return pref;
}

Time Complexity: O(S)
Space Complexity: O(1)

Question 7: climbing stairs

Show solution

Problem Statement: You can climb 1 or 2 steps. How many distinct ways to climb n stairs?

Example:

Input: n = 4
Output: 5

Solution (Java):

public int climbStairs(int n) {
    if (n <= 2) return n;
    int a = 1, b = 2;
    for (int i = 3; i <= n; i++) {
        int c = a + b; a = b; b = c;
    }
    return b;
}

Time Complexity: O(n)
Space Complexity: O(1)

Question 8

Q8: In OOP, hiding internal details and showing only essential features is called?

Solution:

This is the definition of Encapsulation (often paired with abstraction in interviews).

Answer: Encapsulation

Question 9

Q9: Which SQL clause filters grouped rows after GROUP BY?

Solution:

HAVING filters aggregates; WHERE filters rows before grouping.

Answer: HAVING

Question 10

Unbalanced partitions (already sorted with bad pivot) → O(n²).

Answer: O(n²)

Question 11

Q11: Which normal form removes transitive dependency?

Solution:

1NF: atomic values. 2NF: no partial dependency. 3NF: no transitive dependency.

Answer: 3NF
