Interview Prompt

A brokerage's position-keeping service replays the day's executed `trades` to reconstruct each account's holdings. Each trade names a `ticker`, a `side` of `buy` or `sell`, and a share count, where buys add to a position and sells subtract from it. Return the net shares held per ticker.

Summary

Every fill moves a position. Reconstruct where the book settled by the close.

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
