[torpid yarrow]

OA kinda tilted me because the question intuition was simple but i just needed 5 more min

[tall tundra]

they give same question to interns as well

[tall tundra]

i was just being dumb on coding

[velvet vortex]

my exact experience lol

[torpid yarrow]

I just brute forced it, still passed all test cases and moved on. Don't think they care about optimizations

[cedar cape]

I'm so fcking dumb, I did the same dfs shit to get bonus + amount but couldn't figure out why I got it wrong 😦 only passed 2 test cases dafug

[karmic yarrow]

Bonus + amount?

Should be bonus + 1

[wanton cypress]

Well it's bonus + amount depending on referral chain

+1 for direct referral and +1 for each indirect referral

[tall tundra]

u have to add the depth of the dfs
