Process

Two questions were asked.

I solved both on time, but the feedback was "asked many questions to understand the second problem."

I'm not sure if that's fair, especially for a phone screen where we understand the problem before coding the solution.

Questions

  1. Find if a string is numeric

  2. Reverse depth sum
