Round 3: 1pm-2:20pm
Q1:
Design 4 Connect Game LLD

Detailed Structure of Classes,Objects,Methods
Was asked to implement the Game Completion Logic for All 8 Directions
Overcomplicated initially by the Bruteforce way of all 8 directions valid coordinates by adding in a 3d Array.
Interviewer satisfied with that approach but intrested in simplified version of that solution then after a tweak understood that instead of 8 directions can be done using sliding window with only 4 directions.
She seemed satisfied and was told this interview would extend for 20 more minutes.
