Interview Prompt

A memory-efficient ETL pipeline needs to stream values out of deeply nested structures without loading everything into memory. Given a nested list of arbitrary depth, implement a generator that yields each non-list element one at a time. Return the result as a list for testing.

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
