cobalt peak
#

what did they give you?

thick gull
#

Some like buy or sell stock

#

Low key wasn’t that hard

#

Yea

#

Yea

#

I thought I did

#

Maybe I said sum wrong?

drowsy heath
#

dam got mine next week

thick gull
#

Like price time stamp and then you have to decide if to by something based on latest stock price at least y units of time before and change of x something like that it was a vague problem no starter code had to do it from scratch so I’d

drowsy heath
#

idk tbh interviews are a lot of times subjective, ive gotten rejected after doing everything right too

thick gull
#

Idk

drowsy heath
#

dont worry too much

thick gull
#

Okay

#

No

#

R something RM I think

#

qn?

#

I low key didn’t understand ur message lmao

cobalt peak
#

so like…

#

im failing ts

thick gull
#

Nah you’ll be fine

cobalt peak
#

is it similar to buy and sell stock lc?

thick gull
#

No very different

cobalt peak
#

oh damnn

#

yeah twin cooked

thick gull
#

I interpreted it as like time based key value store or at least solved mine with binary search and he seemed to not mind it

cobalt peak
#

wait explain it again??

#

its a tuple

#

of timestamp and stock price?

thick gull
#

Low key could also be how I communicated during the interview while I was coding

#

There was no started code it was a blank code road

#

*pad

cobalt peak
#

yeah i just dont want to look like a fool ts interview and get blacklisted

cobalt peak
thick gull
#

I got auto rejected at 5 am pst today lmao I hope I’m not blacklisted for whatever reason

cobalt peak
#

lolll im sure not

thick gull
cobalt peak
#

ohhhh ok

thick gull
#

So you have a function that injests new stock price and checks to buy or not based on what I described

#

I guess there is an lc kinda like this

#

I forgot maybe time based key value store?

cobalt peak
#

wtf is the x and y then

#

am i crazy

thick gull
#

Like some random params you configure

#

It’s like you have to compare the current price to another price that’s at least if not more than y units of time more

#

And if the stock at those times differ by x percent you buy

cobalt peak
#

im assuming the timestamp is increasing?

thick gull
#

Yea I assumed it’s increasing and no need to sort everytime he said ye

cobalt peak
#

i see

#

sounds like a queue problem

#

lol

#

and is the amount of gap time consistent for the class, or is it defined in the function sig

#

that kind of changes the approach too

cobalt peak
#

good

#

cuz i just FLUNKED THAT SHIT HAHAHA

#

LMFAOOOO

#

I GENUINELY PUT ON A POOPY BUTT PERFORMANCE

drowsy heath
#

damn did you get asked a hard

cobalt peak
#
