Interview Prompt

Our data integrity checker processes sorted lists where every element appears exactly twice - except one orphan. Write a function called find_single that takes this sorted list and returns the element appearing only once.

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
