Hey @nishantagrawal01! Thanks for submitting this contribution, however I have a few questions/comments:
- Can you explain, with an example, what the
Arrays-Adhocpattern consists of? I haven't encountered something like this so far in ~300 questions and would love to learn more! - According to Leetcode Premium, this question isn't asked by Amazon - did you encounter this recently?

Please change this to 170 - the id field isn't the id of the leetcode question in this case

Yes Sure. Actually ad-hoc problems are such kind of problems that doesn't basically require particular use of any fancy data structure/algorithm. These problems are also called constructive algorithms and are created in order to build logic even if a candidate is not much into intermediate/advanced level of Data structures/algorithms.
Yes, this was recently asked by amazon in an interview round.
Let me give you an example. Below is the problem statement
Given an array arr[], find the maximum j – i such that arr[j] > arr[i].
This is a ad-hoc problem, I couldn't find it on leetcode so I didn't add this one in the list.
