Provided you understand what is being asked, you shouldn't even need to remember a "favorite language". Most of the time, the interviewer doesn't care if you know something specific in a particular language, but rather you understand the process.
Heck - do it with a flowchart/process diagram, or write it in a "custom" pseudocode - provided that it looks like it will produce the proper output based on the input and the detailed process, it should be considered "correct" enough to get you at least past the first stage.
There are tons of people who claim to be programmers/coders/developers who can't even logically diagram a process or pseudocode a function/class/whatever. If they can't do that, they have some fundamental issues in their skill set that they need to remedy stat.
