The vast majority of places are asking algorithmic questions not for you to reimplement known algorithms, asking candidates to regurgitate existing algorithms is widely known as bad practice.
- BaseballPhysics 5y ago> The vast majority of places are asking algorithmic questions not for you to reimplement known algorithms So your claim is every company is coming up with new algorithms that they use for their tests??
- starlust2 5y agoAn algorithmic question is a coding problem that focuses on problem solving, and may include questions/constraints related to time & space optimization. The test should never rely on rote learning (e.g. implement Dijkstra's algorithm from memory) or require a "magic" solution (e.g. Project Euler)
