I applied online and was sent a HireVue coding challenge, which consisted of two questions: one 20-minute and one 40-minute. Then, I had to record myself talking through my solution.

No offer yet. Will keep you updated.

The reverse and add function starts with a number, reverses its digits, and adds the reverse to the original. If the sum is not a palindrome, repeat this procedure until it does.

Write a program that takes a number as a string and gives the resulting palindrome (if one exists). If it took more than 1,000 iterations (additions) or yielded a palindrome greater than 4,294,967,295, assume that no palindrome exists for the given number. The output should be the number of additions performed and the end number.

Find the minimum number of coins needed to make an amount of change given coins = 1, 3, 5.
