HTML5 is the fifth revision of HTML standard.It aims to provide language with support of latest multimedia which is easy to code and understand. HTML5 has many syntactic features and tags such as <audio> <video> <canvas> and many more.

From the past few years there has been a huge buzz about HTML5 due to its simple and cleaner code but having strong application.Its <video> and <audio> support are the coolest thing.Earlier embedding audio or video was like headache you have to write hell lot of code for it.You don't need adobe flash player and other media players now,just two lines of code will make your way through it.

Next comes the <canvas> tag.It is the drawable region in the HTML5 with height and width attributes. The javascript code inside it will provide you dynamically generated graphics.It may access the area through a full set of drawing functions.Some uses of canvas are animations,Games and Images.

From past few years HTML5 has been used for developing games and animations.It is a great and easiest way of making fun and interactive games.The game developer will love making games using HTML5.

So overall HTML5 is a powerful language for developing interactive and dynamic user applications.Its easy to code and understand.It is having rich framework for videos and interactive content and it is one of the emerging language.In short i will say its future of Web.

Updated for 2026 This article was originally written when C/C++ puzzles were commonly asked in interviews. While such language-specific puzzles are less frequent today, the problem-solving and logical reasoning skills tested here remain highly relevant for modern Software Engineering, Data Engineering, SQL, and system design interviews . Why These Puzzles Still Matter in 2026 Although most Software &   Data Engineering interviews today focus on Programming, SQL, data pipelines, cloud platforms, and system design , interviewers still care deeply about how you think . These puzzles test: Logical reasoning Edge-case handling Understanding of execution flow Ability to reason under pressure The language may change , but the thinking patterns do not . How These Skills Apply to Data Engineering Interviews The same skills tested by C/C++ puzzles appear in modern interviews as: SQL edge cases and NULL handling Data pipeline failure scenarios Incremental vs ...

Programs and Puzzles in technical interviews i faced

I have attended interview of nearly 10 companies in my campus placements and sharing their experiences with you,though i did not got selected in any of the companies but i had great experience facing their interviews and it might help you as well in preparation of interviews.Here are some of the puzzles and programs asked to me in interview in some of the good companies. 1) SAP Labs I attended sap lab online test in my college through campus placements.It had 3 sections,the first one is usual aptitude questions which i would say were little tricky to solve.The second section was Programming test in which you were provided snippet of code and you have to complete the code (See Tricky Code Snippets  ).The code are from different data structures like Binary Tree, AVL Tree etc.Then the third section had questions from Database,OS and Networks.After 2-3 hours we got the result and i was shortlisted for the nest round of interviews scheduled next day.Then the next day we had PPT of t...
