Process
Applied via their website. Received a Codility online assessment for 3 questions in 140 minutes. Two questions were standard and straightforward, while the third was the most "troll" question I have ever seen. Testing your code in the Codility platform is painful.
Questions
Normal questions:
- Count frequencies of things that can have equivalent representations.
- Recursively calculate a score for a string.
Troll question:
Given a string which may or may not contain newline characters, print a substring in a very specific format with many edge cases.
