#

Thx

#

It was p chill

#

It was one question with two parts

#

First part was v straightforward

#

Secons part required modifying logic a bit but nothing too tough

#

They only care about correctness and writing test cases

^

#

focus on writing simple code quickly, narrate ur thinking process as u code

#

makes sense, was it like normal LC type stuff?

jaunty spoke Sep 21, 2021, 2:52 AM

#

Not really lc at all

#

The problems are very practical

#

The algorithms arent complicated at all

#

ah okay

Yup, if the more time complex soln is quicker to code / more conceptually simple to explain and reason about, use that

#

so when you say writing test cases, that really means giving some standard examples and then the edge cases?

#

Yea

ah i see

#

okay makes sense, seems straightforward.

jaunty spoke Sep 21, 2021, 2:54 AM

#

Cover trivial examples, and then edge cases

#

Yea its v straightforward
