Interview Prompt

A window function step computes the previous value for each element in a time-series column. Return a list of the same length where each element is the value immediately before it in the input; the first element has no predecessor so it should be None.

How This Interview Works

  1. Read the vague prompt (just like a real interview)
  2. Ask clarifying questions to the AI interviewer
  3. Write your python solution with real code execution
  4. Get instant feedback and a hire/no-hire decision
