It’s not a meaningless question though. A binary tree is a simple and very common data structure.
Data structures are important for advanced front development, you need to know which one to use for a given problem.
Of course it’s possible to learn them and not knowing about them at a given time is not a red flag to me, but I guess a large company has so many candidates that they don’t have to risk hiring someone that somehow doesn’t know about them.
- b20000 4y agoasking what a binary tree is is one thing. asking to create the data structures and maybe find/insert operations is ok. but asking a really confusing question involving a binary tree designed to having a pissing contest about who is the smarter one is not.
