I get idea that these questions are exactly same from that you get from clients and incompetent bosses, where you expected by other side to fill the missing bits and show your brilliant intuition to solve the right problem. they are entertaining to play with(solve), though i haven't encountered any serious algo problems during my line of work in 15 years. my friend, game coder, always does.
