Interview Prompt

A game rewards players who collect items whose values are perfectly balanced. Write a function that takes an integer and returns True if it is a perfect number - one whose proper divisors sum exactly to itself. Return False otherwise.

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
