Yeah, I think this is reasonable. I had a pre-technical interview "take home" coding challenge, which was just: Reverse a string in whatever programming language you like best. The technical interview itself drilled down more deeply into my skill level, however I can appreciate that they wanted to have a bare minimum idea that I could actually program before committing more time. The favor was more than returned when they took me out to lunch in the middle of the technical interview and let me ask as many questions as I liked about the company.
