Interview Prompt

A data-quality check on an event export flagged a column of integer `ids` that's supposed to be unique but isn't. Return the id values that show up more than once.

Summary

In a column that promised uniqueness, some values kept their seat. Name them.

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
