Process

I had a five-person interview. The questions were all technical and, to me, rather easy. Some interviewers seemed surprised when I provided the correct answers. Apparently, most candidates do not get those questions right.

Questions

  1. How do you deal with the inaccuracy of floating-point comparisons?

  2. Distinguish pointers and references in C++.

  3. Algorithm to find the intersection between two polygons.
