Thanks Gayle. And thanks also for the huge amount of detail and care in your book. It is meticulous and brilliant. What would you advise for the situation above? The rejection was certainly as a result of my actual coding performance, but I felt like the interviewer played a significant part. The company (strongly) encourages use of your book so I presumed the interviewer would encourage dialogue, give suggestions, give feedback, etc. He gave me a Leetcode question, answered my first question with a smirk ("what output format did he want from the function"), and sat in silence while I threw out ever suggestion I could think of. Am I just deceiving myself? Do other people push through that awkwardness and disdain? Anyway - thanks again. I appreciate your book and advice.
