Interesting. As a datapoint - I've never programmed in Python (mostly Java/Clojure) but had no trouble answering the questions.

- Bartweiss 9y agoJava turns out to be a solid reference point for this. JavaScript might be even better. But there are still issues - not only would this be hard for a C++ programmer, it's hard for a Java programmer who overthinks the thing. Sure, I know how Java handles pass by reference, but unless I know that Python works the same way I'm still guessing.
