Interview Prompt

We need an efficient lookup function for a sorted catalog of integers. Without using any library search utilities, write a function that returns the position of a target value in the list, or -1 if it is not present. The solution must scale to very large catalogs.

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
