5. Alok and Bhanu play the following min-max game. Given the expression.
N = 12+X*(Y-Z) Where X, Y and Z are variables representing single digits (0 to 9), Alok would like to maximize N while Bhanu would like to minimize it. Towards this end, Alok chooses a single digit number and Bhanu substitutes this for a variable of her choice (X, Y or Z). Alok then chooses the next value and Bhanu, the variable to substitute the value. Finally Alok proposes the value for the remaining variable. Assuming both play to their optimal strategies, the value of N at the end of the game would be -
2
-69
93
30

NOTE: The trick for the answer is that remember three formulaes for this kind of question:
X+Y-Z =11;X-Y-Z=2;X*(Y-Z)=18
Directly put the value and find the answer

But the main thing is that he is a good programmer and nothing can be done well without him then what will u do.
In this round the interviewer was jumbling the situation after giving new answer. After each answer he asked new questions.

After my second interview in my HR round the interviewer asked all the members to form a circle and he gave a topic and made us to do a debate and asked us that we should not talk anything negative abt anyone.
