- nolemurs 9y agoWas that a long time ago? I've heard stories about things like that a bunch of years ago, but my impression was that things have changed.

- watwut 9y agoWas it before or during interview? If during, like "you should have studied it", then it is wrong way yo do it. If it was before, then I think it is fine. It basically test whether you are able to learn something like red-black trees when needed. I would consider such question a good one.
