I've interviewed a lot of people, and I've asked LL questions, besides other algorithmic questions, and mostly I ask these questions to new grads with no much experience.
The reason is, if you don't have much work experience, what else would I ask you, it's something that you've been learning about recently in your CS degree, and I want to see if you can apply what you learned.
If you have work experience that is relevant, or don't have a CS degree, I'll ask something else.
For me I feel that a lot of people don't understand that an interview is a conversation, feel free to think out loud, ask questions, and ask for help. I want to see your thinking process, I don't really care about the actual solution.
Not exctly accurate, for the part of the number that is < 100, it will always be R-L, as in 25, would be 5 and twenty in Arabic.
Also for the part that is L-R, that is not the rule, as some people still read all the number as R-L (actually in a lot of historical documents that was the case), so the would read 1925 as five and twenty and nine hundred and a thousand. Where is now most people would read it as a thousand, and nine hundred, and five and twenty.
Could you explain why is that the case, I've heard that multiple times, but for me the math doesn't work out.
If I earn an amount of (x+y), I would get taxed on (x+y), but if I donate x money, I would get taxed on y, but I've already paid x in donations, so unless there is something fishy going on with the x donations part, it would make sense for someone to not donate, as they are already being taxed on y, and the taxes on x would be less than x.
So how are the rich making these donations out of my wallet?
I'm sorry, I'm not a native English speaker, and sometimes I fall into these mistakes.
I think what threw you off is my incorrect punctuation, as I should've wrote it as
> Is it not rude to start reading a book while you are having a lunch with someone? Why is the phone any different?
For me it's not even a conscious effort, as it feels rude to be on your phone, when you are having a meal with someone. Is it not rude to start reading a book while you are having a lunch with someone, why is the phone any different.
When there is a need to look at your phone (Important message, a call, or even to look up something), I think the polite thing is to excuse yourself, do the thing really quickly, and get back to your meal.
And if you don't have minimum wage/hiring/firing laws, that would help with the illegal immigrants problem, as there would be no incentive to hire an illegal immigrant (it's only the headache of in case you are caught).
If you have work experience that is relevant, or don't have a CS degree, I'll ask something else.
