Is reverse a linked list is still a popular question on interview?



I ask it as a warmup question, I expect it to be done in 5-10 minutes.

Then comes the real question, which is "let's write fizz buzz so it generates at above 55Gbytes/second".



I believe they’re referencing this codegolf entry: https://codegolf.stackexchange.com/questions/215216/high-thr...

Ah, lmao


Kind of hilarious what it would go for Python, of all languages.


I explicitly instructed in my custom instructions to never use Python, Go or JS, and to stick to functional languages. Works a treat.


I got that fizzbuzz reference. Stack Overflow thread right?


just out of curiosity, how performed the candidates on real tasks on the job then?
