Interview Prompt

We're deduping a media catalog where each sequel was named by extending an existing title, so a sequel's name begins with a shorter title already in the catalog. Return the titles that extend another title from the list, preserving the original order.

Summary

Spot the sequels hiding in the catalog.

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
