Interview Prompt

A data structure validator needs to check if a binary tree is height-balanced before using it as an index. Write a function that returns True if the tree is balanced - meaning no node has left and right subtrees whose heights differ by more than one.

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
