WhatsApp with its new feature coming up soon.


The most popular instant messaging app, WhatsApp have got a new update. The update will allow the user to add up to 3 people in the video call. The current version only allows video call with single contact by restriction you to contact another user while in the video call. This update is exclusively available for Android users. This update is yet under test and the feature will be used in Beta version 2.18.39 anytime soon. After the update release, users will be able to contact members at the same time during an ongoing video call. This means there will be conference video call in total of 4 members.

The layout decided is to split the screen into 4 equals. The one who is admin of the WhatsApp account will be in top left following by other members. When you are on a video call with a single person you will be provided with Add Person icon on the top right and you can click on the button to add another person. This feature is yet to be tested, so it will be bit soon to think that ‘conference calling’ will be available during voice calls too. But for sure, video conferencing is ‘ON’.


With this feature, Whatsapp most probably will be competing with Skype as well. Recent reports states that WhatsApp might provide group voice calling just like Hike Messenger but adding group video calling will prove to be an interesting step. A month ago, WhatsApp launched its ‘WhatsApp Business’ app which provides interface for small business owner to communicate with their customers easily. According to recent reports, Mark Zukerberg said, “There are more than 1.5 billion user out of which 200 million users are Indians.” This proves how much popular this messaging app is in India. Currently,  WhatsApp is also testing WhatsApp pay and WhatsApp Stickers features.

1235. Maximum Profit in Job Scheduling

Hi everyone, Today's post is little bit intriguing to me as it took me some time to get t the solution. I have been out of practice for a bit so I was not able to do it in the DP. I didn't want to copy the code. Though i understood the code after i checked its solution in the discussions. Anyways, i tried to do it with heap and with some thinking I was able to do it and with my surprise It performed real well. I would like to jump to the solution but first I would like to explain a little bit about heaps so you can get better understanding of the code. A heap is like a special type of list where the smallest (or largest) item is always at the front. Think of it like a priority line at a theme park, where the person with the highest priority goes to the front. There are two types of heaps: Min Heap: The smallest item is at the front. It's like standing in a line where the shortest person is always at the front. Max Heap: The largest item is at the front. It's like stand...

1456, Maximum Number of Vowels in a Substring of Given Length

Hi, folks today I am here with an interesting coding problem from Leetcode. *To directly go to the question please click here. So I will walk through the solution. It will be a brute force and an optimized way solution. I will be explaining the optimized way solutions in depth. # Intuition For any substring of length k, we need to find how many vowels are there in it and provide the highest count of all counts of vowels in a substring. Test Case 1 Input k = 2 and s='asjdee' Output - 2 Explanation: As for substring of length k=2, in the string 's' we have 'ee' when the length is k and the vowels count is 2 Test Case 2 Input k=3 and s='aasdiisdwe' Output - 2 Explanation - For all the substrings with length k = 3 we have 'aas' and 'dii' with 2 vowels each in it. Brute Force - Looping (twice) - Gives TLE (Not recommended) # Approach Create a hashmap (dictionary) with all the vowels in it. Loop through the string till len(s)-k element of strin...

2125. Number of Laser Beams in a Bank

Hi Guys, Today is 3 January 2024 and below is the solution for problem of the day So, the question we have is Number of Laser Beams in a Bank .  In this we have to find total number of lasers. So just imagine it as we have to find number of lines connecting the dots.  so if there are 2 dots. we will have one line, if we have 3 dots we will get 3 lines, and so on... Now relate the above provided example, let's relate this to our problem statement.   We have 4 walls, first wall has 3 lasers, second wall has 0 lasers, third wall got 2 lasers and last wall has 1 laser. So as i suggested we need to connect dots so make sure to only join adjacent dots. So lasers from 1 and 3 wall  will connect to each other (6 lasers) and wall 3 and 4 will connect to each other (2 lasers). So total of 8 lasers, which is the required output anyways. class Solution : def numberOfBeams ( self , bank : List[ str ]) -> int : val = 0 # Initialize a variable `val` to store th...
