Interview Prompt

A word-game app checks each phrase a player types into its entry box, returning True if the phrase reads the same forwards and backwards and False otherwise.

Summary

Check if a string reads the same forwards and backwards.

How This Interview Works

  1. Read the vague prompt (just like a real interview)
  2. Ask clarifying questions to the AI interviewer
  3. Write and run your Python against test cases
  4. Answer the interviewer's follow-up questions, then get a hire or no-hire decision
