Is reverse a linked list is still a popular question on interview?

  I ask it as a warmup question, I expect it to be done in 5-10 minutes. Then comes the real question, which is "let's write fizz buzz so it generates at above 55Gbytes/second".

      Kind of hilarious what it would go for Python, of all languages.

        I explicitly instructed in my custom instructions to never use Python, Go or JS, and to stick to functional languages. Works a treat.

    just out of curiosity, how performed the candidates on real tasks on the job then?

    I got that fizzbuzz reference. Stack Overflow thread right?
