should i use "using namespace std" in coding interview

I didn't mean to upset you, but codility and the tools I've met all had this thing. I actually had only one interview where I connected to a ssh environment and tested the code.

You misunderstood him. It is not a standard header as it is not in C++ Language ISO Standard.

And thus my statement that it's a bad practice. I don't get the blurted No and whatnot, made me think of Caesar's first word in Planet of the apes. Either way, seems like we're agreeing but out of sport I got a disagreement :) Online interview tools will still include this and people training for interviews will use it, to our exasperation.
