Interview Prompt

Log entries stream in for a downstream consumer that accepts at most `n` at a time. Split the entries into batches the consumer can take, tagging each batch with its position and whether it is the final one.

Summary

Every batch has a last piece. Mark it right.

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
