Your question is String Manipulation Challenge. Take a moment with it on the right.
Talk me through your thinking if you like. When you're confident, submit your answer and I'll grade it like a real screen (7/10 or better passes).
Tell me about a string manipulation problem you worked on and the approach you used to solve it.
Explain how you clarified the requirements, selected an approach, handled edge cases, and evaluated the solution. Be specific about your reasoning, including any trade-offs involving time complexity, space complexity, readability, or maintainability.
The interviewer is assessing whether you can break down an ambiguous technical problem, communicate your decisions clearly, and take ownership of validating the result. A strong response should describe a concrete problem, the alternatives you considered, how you tested the implementation, and what you learned.
