Interview Prompt

You're combing purchase logs for a retail loyalty team, where each record carries a `user` and a `date` string in 'YYYY-MM-DD' format. A user counts as a repeat visitor if two of their purchases fall within `days` of each other on the calendar. Return the IDs of those users.

Summary

Loyal customers come back sooner than expected.

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
