Implement a method find that given two lists will find the starting index (indexing is zero based) where the second list occurs as a sub-list in the first list. Your implementation should return -1 if the sub-list cannot be found. Arguments are always defined, non-empty lists.
Sample Input 1
list1 = (1, 2, 3)
list2 = (2, 3)
Sample Output 1
1
Explanation
As second list (2, 3) is sub-list in first list (1, 2, 3) at index 1
 
Sample Input 2
list1 = (1, 2, 3)
list2 = (3, 2)
Sample Output 2
-1
Explanation
As second list is not there in the first list so the output is -1
function LinkedListNode(node_value) {
this.val = node_value;
this.next = null;
}
function _insert_node_into_singlylinkedlist(head, val) {
if(head == null) {
head = new LinkedListNode(val);
}
else {
var end = head;
while (end.next != null) {
end = end.next;
}
var node = new LinkedListNode(val);
end.next = node;
}
return head;
}
/*
* Complete the function below.
*/
/*
For your reference:
LinkedListNode {
var val;
var next;
};
*/
function find(l, s) {
function toList(o) {
var result = [];
function getVal(item) {
result.push(item.val);
if (item.next) {
getVal(item.next);
}
}
getVal(o);
return result;
}
var list = toList(l);
var sublist = toList(s);
var indexStart = list.indexOf(sublist[0]);
if (indexStart < 0) {
return -1;
}
for (var j = 0; j < sublist.length; j++) {
if (list[indexStart + j] !== sublist[j]) {
return -1;
}
}
return indexStart;
}

Let's define a function "LookAndSay" as follow: read off the digits of the input, counting the number of digits in groups of same digit. Here are some examples of this function
LookAndSay(1) = 11 because 1 is read off as "one 1" or 11.
LookAndSay(11) = 21 because 11 is read off as "two 1s" or 21.
LookAndSay(21) = 1211 because 21 is read off as "one 2, then one 1" or 1211.
LookAndSay(1211) = 111221 because 1211 is read off as "one 1, then one 2, then two 1s" or 111221.
LookAndSay(111221) = 312211 because 111221 is read off as "three 1s, then two 2s, then one 1" or 312211.
We then define a "Look and Say" sequence as repeatedly called the "Look and Say" function on its output.
Given a number start and a number of iteration n, calculate the nth number in a "Look and Say" sequence starting with start.
Reusing the previous example with start = 11 and n = 2, LookAndSay(11, 2) = 1211 because LookAndSay(LookAndSay(11)) = 1211
function LookAndSay(start, n) {
}

We have a robot that can pick up blocks from a stash, move them horizontally, and lower them in place. There are 10 positions available to lower blocks, numbered from 0 to 9. Each position can hold up to 15 blocks.
 
The robot understands the commands 'P', 'M' and 'L':
P: Pickup from the stash and move to position 0
M: Move to the next position
L: Lower the block
The robot is safe to operate and very forgiving:
- There are always blocks in the stash (Pickup will always get a block).
- If the robot already holds a block, Pickup will reset the robot to position 0.
- The robot will not go beyond position 9. Trying to Move it further does nothing.
- Lowering a block on a pile of 15 blocks does nothing (and the robot will keep any block it holds).
- Lowering without a block does nothing.
- The robot ignores any command that is not 'P', 'M' or 'L'.
 
Implement a function that takes a String of commands for the robot. The function should output a String representing the number of blocks (in hexadecimal) at each position after running all the commands.
Sample Input 1
String = "PMLPMMMLPMLPMML"
Sample Output 1
"0211000000"
Sample Input 2
"PLPLPLPLPLPLPLPLPLPL"
Sample Output 2
"A000000000"
function compute(instructions) {
}
-------
A third-party provider uses a custom data format to exchange information with us. We need to validate the input before we process it further.
The character encoding is US-ASCII. Valid characters are all the characters between 0x20 (space) and 0x7E (~).
All fields are delimited by '|', and '~' is the escape character. There are only three valid escape sequences:
'~|' stands for '|'
'~~' stands for '~'
'~n' stands for new line
A line represents one record, it must start and end with '|'.
The first line contains the field names. The remaining lines contain the records. Names can't be empty and must be unique, there is no restriction on values.
If a record has more fields than there are names defined, the last name defined will be used and '_#' will be appended to the field name where # is the number of extra record starting at 1.
Here is a valid example:
|name|address|~n|Patrick|[email protected]|[email protected]|~n|Annie||[email protected]|~n
This represents the following data:
name address address_1
Patrick [email protected] [email protected]
Annie [email protected]
Valid input should output statistics about the data: number of records, number of fields, number of empty values and the name of the last field. For the previous example, the following output is expected: "2:3:1:address_1"
Invalid input (such as '~~~') should output the following message "0:0:0:format_error"
You have to write a validate function which verifies the input string conforms to the requirements and generates either the expected output or the error message.
function validate(input) {
}

Where can I find the solution of these questions?
Curious to see code for above problems
