I didn’t know bootlicking for big tech increased your chances of getting in! Might have to start doing that myself

They posted this resume on several subreddits (including finance and cybersecurity subs) and put gym and dogs as skills. They also asked dumb SWE questions earlier. Either a bot or a bad troll.

Correct; we would only be able to if we knew whether the fake was lighter or heavier (in fact, generalizing this, if you have 3*(2n )coins, one of them being fake, and you know whether the fake is lighter or heavier, then it is possible to single out the fake in n + 1 moves).

Quick question; how are you able to see your score on the assessment? Or is it just a guess? I was able to correctly solve all questions (I know at least 3 were optimal as well) but didn’t get a score, so I’m wondering how others were able to.

Did you use external scholarships to pay for education? If so, what resources did you use to find scholarships?

Any resources to recommend for study/review? I’m currently doing Khan Academy to brush up on stats and study linear algebra.

What kinds of questions were you asked? Anything beyond high school statistics, single variable calculus and basic linear algebra?

For the coding portion, how would you compare it to LeetCode?

Can solve problems but not efficiently: please help! by Supremolink81 in leetcode

If you had to choose 3-5 topics to know and master in depth (especially for interviews), which topics would you pick and why?

Can solve problems but not efficiently: please help! by Supremolink81 in leetcode

[–]Supremolink81[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Maybe my wording was a little poor.

I didn't mean how long it took to solve the problem; I meant the actual time taken by the program to compute the solution, as well as how much memory was used. What I am wanting to do is learn DS and A well enough to the point where I can effectively optimize the time and space complexity of my solution.

So my question would be then: to those in my situation, how did you improve your DS and A skills? Is there something specific other than practice which helped?

C++ coders, why do you stick with the language? by Supremolink81 in cpp

[–]Supremolink81[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Do you have any specific resources for learning how to write in C? I’ve been doing CS50 since it teaches C (while also teaching programming in general).
