Interview Prompt
A dice game scores a hand of exactly five dice, each showing 1 to 6, and pays out the hand's best score. Five matching dice are worth 50, four matching are worth 40, three of one value plus two of another are worth 25, and anything else is worth the total of the dice.
Summary
Five little fates land, and only the bold read them right.
How This Interview Works
- Read the vague prompt (just like a real interview)
- Ask clarifying questions to the AI interviewer
- Write and run your Python against test cases
- Answer the interviewer's follow-up questions, then get a hire or no-hire decision
