Q1: Trending Topics Algorithm - 2025 Real Question
Problem: Calculate trending topics based on tweet frequency and engagement.
Solution (Java):
public List<String> getTrendingTopics(int limit) {
Map<String, Integer> topicCounts = new HashMap<>();
for (Tweet tweet : getAllRecentTweets()) {
for (String topic : extractTopics(tweet)) {
topicCounts.put(topic, topicCounts.getOrDefault(topic, 0) + 1);
return topicCounts.entrySet().stream()
.sorted((a, b) -> Integer.compare(b.getValue(), a.getValue()))
.collect(Collectors.toList());
